Stoked to share that I’ve signed a contract with @Christian_Focus for a Christmas book. I love Christmas and I love books. Can’t wait to share meditations on Davidic promises in the prophets.

A student in my psalms class @fullerseminary recently visited the Coptic Museum in Cairo, Egypt. While there, she saw firsthand the oldest complete Psalter in the Coptic language, the Mudil Psalter, dating back to the late 4th or early 5th century. So crazy, so cool.

In Life, in Love, in co-inherent Grace,
In three in one and one in three, in rhyme,
In music, in the whole creation story,
In His own image, His imagination,
The Triune Poet makes us for His glory,
A Sonnet for Trinity Sunday https://t.co/FLJ3YMOc2O

Peter Cushing Trivia

He was an avid collector, painter, and wargamer who owned over 5,000 hand-painted figures.

Cushing particularly enjoyed historical wargaming, specifically focusing on the Napoleonic era.
