Tedder’s Top Ten: Blogs

With the exception of the first two blogs listed, these are in no particular order. I go out of my way each week to read the first two by Mohler and White. Incredible insight from these two men. You will profit greatly from regularly checking in with any or all of the blogs listed.

1.) Al Mohler

2. James Emery White’s Church & Culture

3.) Justin Taylor’s Between Two Worlds

4.) Cranach: The Blog of Gene Edward Veith

5.) The Fellowship of Ailbe - This isn’t really a blog, but T.M. Moore is so prolific, that it might as well be. I’m profoundly grateful for this brother’s writing ministry. Make sure to check out the website. There’s plenty to read.

6.) The Point

7.) Michael Hyatt

8.) Desiring God

9.) Doug Wilson at Blog and Mablog

10.) Christianity Today

As with every category of Tedder’s Top Ten, there are plenty of other candidates that, though they didn’t make my Top Ten, are more than worthy to be read and blessed by. Click here and here to check out some others that I’ve enjoyed over the years.

Grace and Truth,

Reflections on Proposition 8 Decision

Here are a few helpful posts to aid Christians in sorting through the recent attempt to redefine marriage in California.

A Gavel Falls on Marriage: The Proposition 8 Decision
by Albert Mohler

Here’s an excerpt…

The importance of the decision handed down yesterday by U. S. District Judge Vaughn  R. Walker in California’s Proposition 8 trial will be difficult to exaggerate. Proponents of same-sex marriage immediately declared a major victory — and for good reason. The editorial board of The New York Times declared the verdict “an instant landmark in American legal history,” and so it is, even if later reversed upon appeal.

Judge Walker’s decision is sweeping and comprehensive, basically affirming every argument and claim put forth by those demanding that California’s Proposition 8 be declared unconstitutional. That proposition, affirmed by a clear majority of California voters, amended the state’s constitution to define marriage as the union of a man and a woman. In one brazen act of judicial energy, California’s voters were told that they had no right to define marriage, and thousands of years of human wisdom were discarded as irrational.

Stand Firm,
