I read a lot, and I mean that in both senses of the
colloquialism: that is, I read a large quantity of material and I read a large
variety of material. Books about my professional field or my personal interests
cover my desk, and articles about the same fill my Google Reader feed.
It is to this latter, digital reading list that I am
dedicating a new series of blog posts. While the title, “Articles of the Week,”
may not turn out to reflect reality, I do hope to somewhat frequently provide a
listing of some of the more thought-provoking, timely, or just interesting
articles from the various RSS feeds to which I subscribe. Here are this week’s,
many of which relate to the momentous events Christians all over the world
commemorate this weekend.
