It is Monday, January 4. And right now, at this very moment, God is on his throne. Don’t we all need to be reminded of that from time to time?

In case you missed it over the weekend… Logos users will want to be sure to take a look at this month’s free and heavily-discounted books. The freebie this month is a new, theologically-sound commentary on Galatians.

The highlight of today’s Kindle deals is the Crossway Short Classics series.

No One Loved Himself Like Jesus

I appreciate some of the careful distinctions Mark Jones makes in this article about Jesus’ self-love. “Some of the greatest gifts God gave to humanity have been skewed horribly with the entrance of sin. The love of self after the fall is a complex idea for us as Christians to understand. We are inundated constantly with unbelieving philosophies of self-advancement, self-esteem, self-fulfillment, self-actualization, self-gratification, self-esteem, and more, and we often run in the opposite direction. But we have to be careful.”
