JED BREAKS BREAD Jonathan Edwards I am Pastor Jonathan Edwards. (No, not THAT Jonathan Edwards!). But like the greatest theological mind America has ever produced, I have a desire to know and understand God's Word and how to put it into practice. Many Christians have been accused of having a "dead orthodoxy" - that is, a life that doesn't live out the truths one believes. I want to challenge myself and fellow believers to have an orthopraxy as rich as our orthodoxy, that we might bring glory to God in all areas of life.

Robert Elsmere by Mary Augusta Ward (1851 - 1920) LibriVox Essentially the book covers the life of Robert Elsmere, a boyishly intellectual clergyman. The first part covers his meeting with and eventual marriage to Catherine Leyburn. After a period as a country vicar, Robert’s meetings with the local squire, an intellectual atheist, lead to his having a crisis of faith. The pair move to London where Robert works with the poor and uneducated. The lives of the people closely associated with the pair are also covered.The book is set against the late Victorian world and its reactions to Darwinism, Unitarianism and the rise of secularism and modernism. At the time, it was a runaway best seller and its attack on orthodox Christianity was fiercely debated by all, including Gladstone. - Summary by Simon Evers
