		<title>Bonhoeffer: Approaching Scripture</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945) was a German theologian and pastor who stood bravely against Hitler and the Nazis' attempts to co-opt the church for political purposes. He was imprisoned and then, shortly before the Allies took Berlin, executed by the Nazi regime.

		<title>The Law and the Heart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is indeed a most lamentable consequence of the practice of regarding religion as a compilation of statutes, and not as an internal principle, that it soon comes to be considered as being conversant about external actions, rather than about habits of mind. This sentiment sometimes has even the hardiness to insinuate and maintain itself [...]]]></description>

		<title>God Requires to Set Up His Throne in Our Heart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[God requires to set up his throne in the heart, and to reign in it without a rival: if he be kept out of his right, it matters not by what competitor. The revolt may be more avowed or more secret; it may be the treason of deliberate preference, or of inconsiderate levity; we may [...]]]></description>

		<title>Old Testament Elaborations on the Sixth Commandment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here is a selection of verses in the Old Testament that elaborate on Exodus 20:13, &#8220;Do not murder.&#8221; I summarized these verses in Sunday&#8217;s sermon.
Manslaughter falls under this commandment, but leads to a different penalty: Exodus 21:12-14, Numbers 35:10-15. Numbers 35:22-25. Deuteronomy 19:4-6. The perpetrator must flee to and remain in a &#8220;city of refuge&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Man&#8217;s Nothing-Perfect and God&#8217;s All-Complete</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[Robert Browning was a great 19th century British poet. His religious beliefs are not clear – in many of his poems, the voice belongs to someone other than the poet. The following is an excerpt from “Saul” (1845 and 1855). Browning imagines David playing the lyre and singing when “a harmful spirit from God was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Seek the Lord</title>
		<description><![CDATA[2 Chronicles 12:14: And [Rehoboam] did evil, for he did not set his heart to seek the LORD.
Why do we do evil?
Rehoboam should have been a godly king. He was the grandson of King David, a man after God’s own heart (1 Samuel 13:14). He was the son of King Solomon, whose wisdom Scripture extols [...]]]></description>
