I've been reading more books lately. We are having blackouts and power surges. I don't leave anything plugged in that I don't have to. I am only running off of small mobile devices on battery power and cellular data. I used my stim check to get a large screen ebook reader.

We learn English from more than one book. We have readers, and spelling books, and grammar books, and writing courses and so much more. Dobson was my reading book. Machen was my comp and grammar book. Mounce was my vocabulary course. I used a lot of stuff. I forget the resources that I used for...

First or second edition? Accents or no accents?

I don't know if I have had it or not. I have been exposed. I have been sick. I have not been very sick. Also, the list of symptoms has changed with time and have grown wider. When I was the most sick, I was suffering with symptoms only added to the list later. In the early days, we were told...

Some people are overwhelmed by having to read too many pages before having the opportunity to participate. A new thread allows people to only be responsible for the content in that new thread. I've been gone a bit. I am more likely to read and post in short thread, than a long one.

In my neighborhood, we are all still masked. None of us are vaccinated. It is different in the other neighborhoods where almost everyone is vaccinated. The zipcodes most affected by the virus are also the zipcodes that haven't had access to the vaccine. People are dying here and will continue to...

Most of the writers I know barely make enough money to keep their children's bellies full of rice. They often write content that they are hired to write, but makes their souls sick to write. They work long hours and are treated with incredible disrespect by their employers. Most writers do not...

There are saved Catholics. Just like in protestant churches, some members are saved and some are not. Catholics lead other Catholics, non-believers, and even Protestants to Christ, and of course with their own Bible. As is mentioned earlier, the KJV originally contained the apocrypha. At times I...

The government's professed primary goal is to make money circulate in the theory that any money spent leads to more money spent and prevents a depression? Expanded food stamp handouts are considered a total success working from the bottom up to stimulate the entire economy? Carefully timed...

The out-of-print 4th edition of Writing Road to Reading is the last edition written by the author before she died. I learned a lot by reading this book, but only use the handwriting. I use How to Tutor as my order of instruction and NOT Spalding. The later editions are making the foundation a...

Yes, I have seen the Psalter and hymn books used in action. I think my younger sister learned to read primarily from following my finger in hymnbooks as the hymns were sung, and memorizing the scripture printed out on cards for her to memorize each week. I spent a few years tutoring homeless...

I think the pilgrims used the Bay Psalter. When I visited the living Museum in Plymouth, one of the huts had a Psalter.

Thanks! Interesting! This article is over a year old, but the concept of using shortwave to replace blocked social media is timely and applicable. The 'Amateur' Tech That Could Penetrate the Kashmir Blackout The 'Amateur' Tech That Could Penetrate the Kashmir Blackout

Years ago, the psalter was an important book to teach children to read. Don Potter has made a free pdf copy for early readers. http://donpotter.net/pdf/psalmsreader.pdf And he sells a paperback version that is available at Amazon...

Some Trinitarian Bibles come with the Psalter in the back. https://us.tbsbibles.org/store/ListProducts.aspx?catid&ftr=metrical+psalms There are all sorts of online assistance to learning to sing metrical psalms, and some oldschool apps and recordings, too.

I love both the Scottish Psalter and the Geneva Psalter. Both were meant to make private worship possible for the layman and in homes.

I recently bought a shortwave radio. I think as the mainstream media gains more power and abuses it, shortwave and ham radio will be reemerging as important forms of communication. It is interesting that so many shortwave radio stations are owned by Christians. At this time, the signals are...

There are people and organizations plotting all sorts of ways to gain power, but God is in control, and history shows us the pattern of what happens to plotters. I believe there will be people hurt in the short-term, but then as always, the evil will implode, doing the most damage to the...

Along with assumption that a translation is a political statement, the political statement is also seen as a stereotypical political statement, and the most negative stereotype possible.

Scofield dates at the top of the page are not keyed to any specific verse. It looks like these are his conclusions: Birth 5 BC Visit of the Magi 4 BC Baptism and temptation 26 BC Crucifixion 33 BC While the 3 1/2 year length of ministry is not set in stone, most study notes authors use 3 1/2...
