Hah, spiritual combat, that sounds cool. The content on here is growing by the day, quite a nice collection of stuff for me to slowly get round to. When you go back home I will try to continue your efforts of encouraging the others to read this stuff (though I don't think I can replicate your zeal :] and I think I need to encourage myself first!)
ReplyDeleteprobably one of the most important books for these 'last days'
