J.C. Ryle on Christianity in England in the late 19th c:
‘We have too often been content with zeal for orthodoxy, and have neglected the sober realities of daily practical godliness’.

Happy to note my article on puritan practical divinity in @OxUniPress’s Research Encyclopedia of Religion has received final approval.
If anyone’s interested in an overview of the history and historiography of puritan experiential piety, it will appear in due course.

Enjoyed writing for The Gospel Coalition
on postmillennialism as a movement—e.g., its roots, influence, decline, & renewal.

Enjoyed writing this!

The history of postmillenialism provides an opportunity to reflect on how personal and historical circumstances can subtly influence our understanding of what Scripture says about the consummation of redemptive history. thegospelcoalition.org/artic…

Puritan Arthur Dent on doubt:
As someone safely in a tall building may still be terrified by looking down, ‘when we look down to ourselves we have doubts & fears; but when we look up to Christ & the truth of his promises we..cease to doubt’
-Plain Man’s Pathway to Heaven (1601)

We have a ‘living hope’ in Christ:
‘If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied’(1 Cor 15:19)
But in God’s ‘great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ’ (1 Pet 1:3)

There is no way to fix this without changing the current incentive structures on both sides. Faculty get destroyed on evals if they give accurate grades. Students are incentivized to care about grades above all else.
What we'd need to fix this is a total overhaul the system.

“They were cracking up not simply because grades had gotten so high but because they knew just how little students were doing to earn them.”
Harvard faculty recognize that grade inflation has become absurd:

Excellent opinion piece from Lael. An important issue for the development of the next generation of lawyers and legal scholars.

The ABA is the gatekeeper for American legal education - but some states are considering changing that. They should. In an op-ed today in @wapo, I explain that ABA is losing confidence in its control over legal ed - on a bipartisan basis. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
