friday

It was 69 degrees (f) outside this morning. Unusually balmy and sunny after days of wet and cold weather. This is a gardening day. Let's celebrate.

I am off to the garden.

I did notice this book review of a new history on the reformation in Europe, from The Spectator. It was linked in Simon Sarmiento's blog at Thinking Anglicans. Simon also links a review from the Church Times on the same book, written by the Bishop of London.

It's helpful to remind ourselves that the church has changed and struggled over time, and doesn't come to us in this day like a can of tuna, off the shelf, all prepared and packaged.
