A pinch and a punch for the first of the month!
The universe might implode today because I'll be working on two Briefings at once (but it usually doesn't). If anyone can tell me the page number where this quote appears in Resurrection and the Moral Order by Oliver O'Donovan, I would be very grateful:
[H]ermeneutical exercise as it is practised these days has a kind of contradiction sewn within it and is to some extent a doomed enterprise because it is trying to draw two horizons together without seeing what overarches them.
Ben has no idea, and Google Print and Amazon are not searchable enough.
The TV guide says that Sylvia is on tomorrow on Channel 7 in the middle of the day. Is it worth taping? I never liked the idea of Gwyneth Paltrow as Plath. I'm not a Paltrow basher (mostly because of Shakespeare in Love; I thought she did marvellously well in it, though Cate Blanchett probably should have won that year for Elizabeth). But Daniel Craig as Ted Hughes sort of appeals. Has anyone seen it?
In other news, I got a letter published in the SMH today (scroll down to “Iemma lets the state down”). It's the first letter to the editor I've ever written. I hope Gordo is proud of me!
Update: Noah is blogging about our US conference (Gospel Growth vs. Church growth). There's sermon recaps and some photos!
