I received some mighty good birthday spoil this week. I wasn't all that excited about my birthday, everyone did a great job of picking gifts. Ryan is attempting to bring me to the dark side with books from Bahnsen on Van Til and theonomy. My mom got me books from Letham on Communion, C.S. Lewis and the illustrated novel, V for Vendetta. She also got me 1 year of online guitar lessons. I am afraid of how little progress I'm likely to make but it should be fun anyway. My mother-in-law found a book called The Most Encouraging Book on Hell Ever which should be interesting. Dana got me a bundle of top shelf cigars, including Oliva V, La Aroma de Cuba and Alec Bradley and my favorite Cognac, Hine. She also got tickets to see The Head and the Heart in Phoenix, which is pretty awesome. She also advised my dad who got me a very nice XO rum from Barbados. These are exciting times indeed! Thank you everyone for the wishes and gifts!
