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.

Sunspots 633
Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to someone else:
The Arts: On The Writer's Almanac, Garrison Keillor reads a fine short poem, and discusses the beginning of National Parks in the U. S., and other things.
Christianity: Andy Crouch discusses the Creation in a thought-provoking and stimulating post from BioLogos.
Computing: Wired considers the possibility of having a simpler smartphone.
A Wired writer asked a cybersecurity company to send him phishing e-mails. He almost got caught.
Ethics: Wired has an essay on the ethics of the lies told by President Trump, and other people. The article references what some church fathers had to say on the subject of lying.
Food: National Public Radio reports that India is having political, religious, and economic disagreements over the use of cows as meat.
Humor: Relevant warns us of serious theological problems with fidget spinners.
(or something) Wired shows us a photo of an amazing "bicycle graveyard" in China.
Politics: Relevant on the danger of Christians entertaining conspiracy theories.
