We are almost at the end of the month, so it is time for our latest Modern Cloister edition of In The News. Last month we did more of a deep dive on a major story, a smaller story, then one story from each of us. This time we are trying something a little different, with just firing relatively quickly, through five stories over the past month. Please let me know if one is better than the other.
Our five topics are:
Losing Our Religion (Gallup Poll, Russell Moore, 538 Podcast)
Refugees Cap (Christianity Today, Religious News Service, My Review of Seeking Refuge)
Human/Monkey Embryo’s (Nature)
Women Songwriters
Dawkins Excommunicated (Guardian)
Hope you enjoyed this episode, please visit ModernCloister.com for more.
A Guide to Understanding the Psalms – Modern Cloister
In the first episode in our series on the psalms , we discuss the significant value and purpose of the psalms in both the private worship and prayer lives of Christians and the corporate life of the church. During the conversation, we cover their history, organization, difficulties, language style and poetic nature, themes, and also share our personal stories in coming to love and appreciate the psalms.
Below are our reviews of the books mentioned in the episode:
How To Read The Psalms
Learning To Love The Psalms
Prayer: Experiencing Awe and Intimacy with God
