I'm posting these to remember to view this this afternoon, since our Bunyan study on the Pharisee and the Publican has ended and we need some new material to go over. I think this will be a good talking point.

The Temptations of Jesus—And You
An interview with Russell Moore on his book Tempted and Tried: Temptation and the Triumph of Christ (Crossway):
And from Justin Taylor's post I mentioned a few weeks ago.
Where there is talk about preaching and hell, Jonathan Edwards’s name is never far behind. “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” is the most famous sermon in American history. And undoubtedly Edwards is the most caricatured preacher because of it.
You can read the whole sermon online, or listen to someone like Mark Dever or Max McLean read it. For a book-length treatment of Edwards on hell, with particular attention on the inadequacy of arguments for annihilationism, see Christopher Morgan’s Jonathan Edwards and Hell.
But few people know that Edwards often preached on heaven, too. And his sermons on heaven are as beautiful as his sermons on hell are sobering.
For a wonderful introduction to Edwards on heaven, I’d encourage you to listen to Sam Storms’s talk on “Joy’s Eternal Increase: Edwards on the Beauty of Heaven.” But first you might want to read the text of Edwards’s sermon, “Heaven, A World of Love.”
