Christianity and the Son of Hamas (*)

The WSJ’s Matthew Kaminski interviews Mosab Hassan Yousef, the son of one of the founders of the terrorist group Hamas. “I’m not trying to convert the entire nation of Israel and the entire nation of Palestine to Christianity. But at least if you can educate them about the ideology of love, the ideology of forgiveness, the ideology of grace. Those principles are great regardless, but we can’t deny they came from Christianity as well.” I need to read his new book, Son of Hamas.

Roger Ebert, Four Years After Losing His Voice (*)

Esquire’s wonderful piece on Roger Ebert, one of my favorite writers. “He begins to write about more than movies…. The existence of an afterlife, the beauty of a full bookshelf, his liberalism and atheism and alcoholism, the health-care debate, Darwin, memories of departed friends and fights won and lost — more than five hundred thousand words of inner monologue have poured out of him, five hundred thousand words that probably wouldn’t exist had he kept his other voice.”

Donald Miller Responds to Pat Robertson on Haiti (*)

“For those thinking this blog was too harsh, please understand that in one passing comment, Pat Robertson painted an entire nation as Godless, and deserving of destruction.” I wish more Christian leaders stood up to the old guard like this.
