Book Club Announcement: The good folks over at Gospel-Centered Discipleship are reading This Is Our Time together. You can join the conversation here.

Kindle Deal: Art and the Bible by Francis Schaeffer. $1.99.

Seven of the best articles I came across this week:

1. Tim Keller – Race, the Gospel, and the Moment. How should Christians, and especially those with an Anglo-white background, respond to last weekend’s alt-right gathering in Charlottesville and its tragic aftermath? 

2. Nina Kruscheva – How Women Lived Under Soviet RuleIn collecting and sharing their testimonies, the Nobel laureate Svetlana Alexievich took on the role of “a witness to witnesses who usually go unheard.”

3. Chad Wellmon – For Moral Clarity, Don’t Look to Universities. The contemporary university, at least in its local form in Charlottesville, seems institutionally incapable of moral clarity.

4. Jamie Dean – The Campaign Against Kim. As the West worries how to handle the increasingly belligerent Kim Jong Un, defectors from North Korea are waging a steady information campaign against the dictator’s brutal regime and personality cult.

5. Chris Martin – Facing Online Harrassment: A Lesson in Learned Helplessness. Perhaps the most chilling fact about online harassment is this: few of us seem to do anything about it. 

6. Gene Edward Veith – Virtue Signaling as Self-Justification. When we live by justifying faith in Christ, we don’t have to signal our virtue, to others or to ourselves.  

7. Ed Stetzer and Mark Silk – The Future of Evangelicalism in AmericaGreat interview here based on statistical research.
