...Down and out in Palm Springs..."The 40 Best Christian Places to Work" -- Why do I wonder how much of these survey results reflect a concerted effort on the part of a few enthusiastic employees to motivate co-workers to put their organization on the map? I just wonder about such things.
..."The culture war's biggest casualties may be Christian joy and hope" -- as always Andy Crouch rightly makes me nervous.
...China appears to be warming to the Pope. Politics -- for better and worse.
