In Chariots of Fire, the classic motion which contrasts the Olympic careers of Eric Liddell and Harold Abrams, the Flying Scot (Liddell) says that he felt the pleasure of the Lord when he ran. I can say the same thing about writing.
When I write, I feel the joy of crafting words that explicate and extol the beauty of God in his Word and his world. Over the last few years, I have written a number of words here (on this blog), in various academic journals, and online. You can find an index of those writings here.
