Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because it is public domain. I am grateful.

Hebrews 12:1, and Andrew Murray, on laying aside hindrances
An attempt at a graphic depiction of a quotation from Andrew Murray's With Christ in the School of Prayer, public domain, combined with Hebrews 12:1.
The full quotations are: When ordinary Christians imagine that all that is not positively forbidden and sinful is lawful to them, and seek to retain as much as possible of this world, with its property, its literature, its enjoyments, the truly consecrated soul is as the soldier who carries only what he needs for the warfare.
Therefore let us also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us . . .
The graphic is also a link to my Flickr photostream, where the poster can be downloaded in larger size, if desired. My posters are free for all to use, so long as they are used non-commercially.
Thanks for looking and reading!
