The Psychology of Resentment

Dane Ortlund:

But here’s what happens. The bitterness you harbor, the emotional punishment you exact in your heart, has precisely the opposite effect, over time, than you think. Bitterness does nothing to the offender, while it quietly destroys the offended. Resentment kills, hollows out the resenter, not the resented.

Blind Spots and Lane Changes

Thabiti Anyabwile:

The problem with blind spots is you don’t see them .Blind spots make lane changes surprisingly dangerous. It happens in leadership, too. Leaders have blind spots. I know I do. We don’t often discover them until we’re making a change, adjusting course. You’re cruising along, changing lanes, and sometimes someone has to honk the horn real loud. Have you ever had that happen? I have. So, here are a couple lessons I’m learning as I lead with blind spots.

4 Ways to Write with Style and Grace

Trevin Wax:

A writer who believes that ideas matter more than impressions ought to do everything in his or her power to make the communication of ideas clear, cohesive, and compelling. Though we should not bow to unwarranted pressure to “spice up” our academic writings, we should certainly seek to be clear and engaging as we make our arguments and further our proposals.

Preparing for Worship

Joe Thorn:

Whatever your theological conviction is concerning the sabbath, I hope you take the Lord’s Day and corporate worship seriously. Even if you don’t share their view of the sabbath, the Puritans had great counsel on how to prepare for and get the most out of the Lord’s Day. Below is a very edited* piece from Thomas Watson’s treatment of the fourth commandmentas it relates to preparing ourselves for our gathering together for worship.
