Swear to God by Scott Hahn

 I may have posted about this book years ago when I was in seminary, but it was a great help to me on Sacramental theology (even if I didn't accept all of the apologetic for the Church of Rome).

How I came to a Sacramental view of Baptism

 Embracing a Sacramental view of Communion was pretty straight-forward once I started reading more of the Bible, but it took a bit longer to come around on Baptism.

The Wesley Study Bible NRSV review

 Here is my review of the Wesley Study Bible.  It is a decent Study Bible that Wesleyans and Methodists will find useful, though it is a bit "light" and needs both more consistent editing and many more features if it wants to be a really good-to-great Study Bible.

Another good Study Bible (better in many respects) from a Wesleyan perspective if the Reflecting God Study Bible in the NIV translation (of 1984).

Lift Thine Eyes by Mendelssohn

 "Lift Thine Eyes" is a great example of Protestant sacred and choral music.  The image set to this recording is a chapel in an Anglican Cathedral.  This is the kind of beauty that a religious culture creates when it has a vision of the Transcendent Artist as the Source of all things.

The words are from Psalm 121.
