Are you Bible-ish or Bible-strong?

The Book that Changed the World: I am holding Erasmus' first edition tour de force Novum Instrumentum (est. AD 1516). Erasmus' contribution to the Reformation and eventually, our English Bible, was incalculable.

The Greatest of All Virtues

"And when He had given thanks (εὐχαριστέω), He gave ..." Mark 14:23 Dear rob A passage not often associated with "thanksgiving" is the story of Jesus's astonishing miracle in Luke 17. Jesus heals ten lepers and only one ("a foreigner," by the way) bothered to return with gratitude (see Luke 17:11–19).
