I’ve come across a few links today that I’d like to share.
Conversant Life is a community that discusses faith and culture. This is right up my alley, and so far I’ve enjoyed searching through its many offerings. Looks like a new favorite for me. I’m even posting to some indie music they let you sample.
I Am Second. What do Jason Castro, Joe Gibbs, Greg Ellis, and others have in common? I encourage you to check it out. Be curious.
Finally, win 10 bucks!

There are some link-worthy posts out there today. Make sure you check these out.
First off John C. Wright gives a wonderful little essay on the the rationality of Christianity compared to other world paradigms. I don’t agree with the first few paragraphs all the way, but still worth a look.
Then Mike Duran gives a good exposition of the paradoxes in Christianity, and the changing viewpoints in physics. Again, a thoughtful post.

Ok, those pesky pirates from earlier today (ARRRR) have finally left me alone to catch up with all the action for this month’s CSFF blog tour. It seems several of us didn’t read and review The Return because it is the third of a series and we hadn’t started it. This is always a bummer with a blog tour. But the buzz from those who have read the series seem to consistently give the book high marks. For true science fiction, it seems to really nail things. So I have poured through my tourmates to discover the best posts to read. Some have posted the back cover or author info, which helps support the books, but these following have put a little more out there for you. Of course, don’t miss out on Austin Boyd’s personal site.
Grace Bridges gives a good review.
Valerie Comer has some interesting discussion regarding the series.
Marcus Goodyear is applying his editorial kung-fu on the book – see if it holds its own!
Christopher Hopper is a fellow author who gives praise to Mr. Boyd.
Karen managed to read this book in one night – see how she did it.
Rebecca LuElla Miller discusses book 2 (The Proof) and book 3 (The Return).
John W. Otte has hands down the deepest discussion of the Mars Hill Classified trilogy, from 9/17-9/19.
Deena Peterson has an interview with Austin Boyd and further discussion of the books.
Chawna Schroeder does an in-depth review on all 3 books, from 9/7, 9/14, and 9/18.
James Somers has a nice in-a-nutshell review.
Speculative Faith promotes these books as must read sci-fi.
