Articles Worth Reading this Weekend

Here are a few of my favorite posts from around the web this week.

Dear Children: Let Me Explain This Thing Called Summer :: “Our children need to be bored. They need to kick their feet and wait outside of bathroom doors, unanswered. They need to be sent outside or to their rooms to play. They need to turn over the bag of tricks and find it empty. Because that’s when they will discover they don’t need stuff to fill their time. They don’t need a plan for entertainment.”

Scarred Healers :: “The scars of the great men (and women) of the faith remind us that God heals wounds, and uses the scarred. Will we allow God to show our scars to tell our stories, so that more wounded find the same healing we are experiencing?”

Everyone Needs a Good Quack Doctor :: “Here are just a few of the areas where ‘real science’ was not only lagging behind, but got it plain wrong.”
