Good morning. Here is an assortment of links to start your week off on the right foot. In today's edition: bringing chivalry back, how to stop procrastinating, considering New Calvinism, and more.
*****************
8 acts of chivalry to bring back. This is some good advice and it surprises me how little these types of things are put to practice. Men need to learn how to behave like gentlemen. I guarantee that women will thank us for it.
*****************
Why Charles M. Schulz's comic strip was called Peanuts. The fascinating thing is that Schulz did not come up with the name and never really liked it.
*****************
This is a book that looks interesting:
The New Calvinism Considered.
They call it the New Calvinism. It is a relatively new movement that has discovered some old theology and brought it into the mainstream. It is a movement titled after its theology, but one formed around its leaders—it can hardly be discussed without reference to John Piper and Al Mohler and Matt Chandler and so many others. It is a fascinating movement that encompasses myself and so many others.
The New Calvinism is the subject of Jeremy Walker’s new book The New Calvinism Considered: A Personal and Pastoral Assessment. Behind that rather austere title is a very accessible book that does exactly what the title claims: it shines a spotlight on this theological movement and considers where it has come from, what it has accomplished and where it may be going in the future.

11 features no longer seen in cars. I can still remember when some of those things were available (not telling which ones since that would date me).
