  Commentary on Today's Verse

  Commentary on Psalm 105:1-7

  (Read Psalm 105:1-7)

  Our devotion is here stirred up, that we may stir up ourselves to praise God. Seek his strength; that is, his grace; the strength of his Spirit to work in us that which is good, which we cannot do but by strength derived from him, for which he will be sought. Seek to have his favour to eternity, therefore continue seeking it while living in this world; for he will not only be found, but he will reward those that diligently seek him.

  Psalm 105:4 In-Context

  2 Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts.

  3 Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.

  4 Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always.

  5 Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,

  6 you his servants, the descendants of Abraham, his chosen ones, the children of Jacob.

Gratitude for Grace
Gina over at The Point links to a piece by Jennifer at Conversation Diary, which reads in part, …I got out a pen to add some things to the store list. I do this about five times every day. But this time, as I wrote “bread” and “black beans” on my little pad of paper, it hit me: I am doing something really, really amazing here. Out of the blue, I suddenly saw writing items on my grocery list in...
‘Don’t Buy Stuff You Cannot Afford’
As Dave Ramsey admits, all of the advice he gives is something that you would be able to get from your grandma. It’s a mentary on our society that this basic wisdom, that prudential use of money (i.e. thrift) is a virtue, is so alien to us. ...
The Perils of Planning
Somewhere in the United States today, government officials are writing a plan that will profoundly affect other people’s lives, es, and property. Though it may be written with the best intentions, the plan will go horribly wrong. The costs will be far higher than anticipated, the benefits will prove far smaller, and various unintended consequences will turn out to be worse than even the plan’s critics predicted. That’s the first paragraph of Randal O’Toole’s wonderful book, The Best Laid Plans:...
Dispatches from the Academy 2: Great Lines, Great Minds
Still reporting from the Making Men Moral Conference in honor of Robert George at Union University . . . I’ve had the chance to hear some great lines offered up by conservative academics. Here are a couple: Paul Kerry (BYU) on the difference between Robert George and Cornel West: “Last year, Robert George was invited to meet with Pope Benedict XVI. Cornel West was similarly honored to be invited to meet with Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez.” Russ Moore (Southern Seminary)...
PBR: Retreat, not Surrender
Free trade seems to get all the blame when things go wrong and none of the credit when things go right. It’s the Rodney Dangerfield of global economics: it gets no respect. Certainly in this worldwide economic downturn globalism is going to take its bumps and bruises. And as trouble es to roost at home (and vice versa) more then ever the lesson is going to be how truly interdependent we all are. In the short term there will certainly...
Dispatches from the Academy 3: Neuhaus’ Choice
Again reporting from the Making Men Moral conference at Union University . . . The evening panel featured Robert George, Jean Bethke-Elshtain, David Novak, and Harry Poe. Their primary subject was the life of Richard John Neuhaus. Lots of great material, but Robert George spoke very movingly of Neuhaus’ career. In the 1960’s, Neuhaus was a friend and associate of Martin Luther King, Jr. During the next decade, Neuhaus moved into position to e the most prominent religious liberal in...

Allen, Professor of Political Science at Michigan State University gives the answer, discussing Lincoln’s views on human rights and equality.This is the eleventh short in the series.

Evangelicals and Catholics Together?
The Making Men Moral conference at Union University is over, but there are some takeaways. This was a unique engagement of many natural law thinkers such as the Catholics Robert George and Francis Beckwith with Southern Baptists like Russell Moore and Greg Thornbury. In that connection, Russell Moore delivered a message that I think would be considered a highlight of the conference by anyone who attended. He addressed the differences between Catholics and Evangelicals irenically without being ecumenical in any...
Economic Crisis Resource Page
Today on the Acton website we launched a resource page devoted to the global economic crisis. This page is a collection of recent Acton articles, interviews, and video that directly relates to the economic crisis. It includes material that addresses the causes of the crisis, the government’s responses, and market-based solutions to the crisis. It also has a link to a superb video in which Sam Gregg discusses the government’s response to the crisis and how its policies, such as...
Dispatches from the Academy: Making Men Moral
In the wake of Joseph Lawler’s piece on George Mason economists evaluating conservative magazines’ affinity for liberty on the basis of their treatment of sex, gambling, and drugs, Princeton’s Robert George is the perfect antidote. He could have reminded the measurers of liberty that those who favor laissez faire with regard to vice are often much less friendly to consensual acts of capitalism between adults. It’s a point he made in his seminal book Making Men Moral. I’m currently attending...
