Bear Market

I'd be lying if I said that I was unconcerned by the eight days (counting today) of major losses that the NYSE has absorbed. Each day, I get to work and have the NYSE website up following the market; each...

The Prodigal God

When I predicted that his book The Reason for God would make the New York Times bestseller list, Tim Keller told me that he was embarrassed for both of us.  But as it turned out, I was right (remember, you...
