I think this blog post by Doug Wilson is absolutely brilliant. As a writer, I find the analogy of God as storyteller one of the best ways of understanding how God can be in complete control, and at the same time we still have freedom and responsibility.

My new Acer Aspire One netbook

By Caleb | October 24, 2008

My laptop died recently after around four and a half years, so I was finally forced to invest in a new computer. The main thing I want to use it for is being able to write on the move, and other general use such as web, email, managing mp3s and digital photos. I’m not at […]
