Recently, I’ve been drawn back to this post and decided to start reading Murray’s bio of Edwards for at least 10 minutes a day.

Piper makes a great point here, and I love his word choice describing books. (great, mind-shaping, heart-enriching). Just looking back over the past 4 years of my life, I can see how much of my growth can be traced through the books I have read.

Thanks again for your constant encourage to God-honoring reading. Get well soon.

But I think the time-crunched society is altering some book publishing practices. There definitely seem to be more sub-300 page novels and the like than there used to be.

Remember the old James A Michener brick busters? They were awesome. They would just freak people out these days.

Alas for times changing,
