Bible notes#
Contents:
I’ve been following the Robert Murray M’Cheyne plan. since maybe 2004. Since becoming a father I’ve changed to doing the plan at half speed. I found it hard to really meditate on that much material every day. These notes are my attempt to make more of what I read stick.

The links below are all free online resources.
Bible Hub. Easy to navigate online Bible and study tools.
Monergism. Great selection of writings of the reformers, puritans and people in the great awakening. Includes Calvin’s Institutes amongst lots of other titles. Thomas Watson’s The Godly man’s picture is a book I highly recommend.
G K Chesterton at Project Gutenberg. I read my first G K Chesterton book straight after reading Neitzsche’s Beyond Good and Evil. I couldn’t have chosen something better if I tried. Can’t remember if it was Orthodoxy or Heretics I read first but Chesterton was like a breath of fresh air. He also happens to respond to Neitzsche’s thought directly and compassionately with good humour, as is his style.
Pascal’s Pensees. I use his equations for hydrostatics at work. Didn’t know till I read Nick Needham’s histories he was a prolific theological writer too. I found the start hard going but worth persevering with. Lots of profound stuff in here.
