For the past several months, I have been posting book reviews for you to the neglect of providing some excellent links as well. Links would probably be a better option for broke college students since they are free! So, let’s play catch up (sort of) with a link that could strengthen your walk with God and be helpful as a tool for sharpening your masculinity on the rock of God’s Word.
Bruce Hurt has provided a site that is definitely more substance in nature than style. Preceptaustin is the name of the site and it includes several features that can serve as a free Bible study resource for you.
One of the most useful pages on his site is the “Commentaries by Verse” page. Here, you can find the Bible verse or passage of choice, click on it, and be introduced to dozens of articles that are relevant to that particular portion of Scripture. Many of these articles are pubic domain, meaning advanced in age, but there are some modern authors who have given him permission to post their sermon notes, commentaries, and studies on the site.

Are you the kind of person who is relentless and dissatisfied with the state of things until the objective is met or victory is obtained? Do you refuse to enter into the emotional joy of a moment before that joy is captured for certain? I am.
I like to see things come to a joyful end, whether it is a win for my favorite team, a weight loss goal, a successful ministry event, or a safe and timely arrival at the desired destination. Until those goals are met, I have a hard time relaxing, celebrating, or even displaying gratefulness for the opportunity to even pursue such a goal. I think that I possess such a wary demeanor because I have read too many horror stories of defeats snatched from victories, weight rebounds, event disasters, traffic jams, or vehicular malfunctions. I even had a recurring nightmare when I was younger that involved dying before my wedding night.
