I remember when in college reading some Sumerian poetry in translation. Same vibe.

I’m still not very far (hehe), but I will say I’ve listened to the Chicago lectures related to Evangelical Theology. Also the most difficult thing for me with Barth is understanding his context. So the Prolegomena prove most challenging at the moment.

I recently (? Maybe like a year ago) scored a full set of CD for less than $200.

(Sorry, random question.)

Do the English—and by extension the Episcopal Churches get into church bells?

I stand by Thy Cross; I was the cause of it. I cast myself down in the dust before it. Here is the triumph of love, the victory of salvation. Here the centuries themselves cannot remain silent, singing Thy praises: Alleluia!

It is the breath of Thy gracious love. It is the reflection of the glory of Mount Tabor. Then do heaven and earth sing Thy praise: Alleluia!

Glory to Thee for Thine eternity in this fleeting world
Glory to Thee for Thy mercies, seen and unseen
Glory to Thee through every sigh of my sorrow
Glory to Thee for every step of my life's journey
For every moment of glory
Glory to Thee, O God, from age to age

My son is sick, but I went outside to shovel and listened to the Brandenburg Concertos.

"If they want a history of the game record, Kasparov’s “My Great Predecessors” is the best. It covers each world champion before him. Also "Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess" is a classic."

From J-M: "Happy Sunday. I’m not on blue sky really, but at 6 you want a coach or a club to shepherd them, not books (each are good, though). A coach at that age could be life changing though. Kids have the ability to gain hundreds of points quickly because of their neuro-plasticity."
