    By Thomas Finley and Kenneth Way From October 2 to December 8 of this year the Cyrus Cylinder will make a visit to The Getty Villa (in Malibu, CA) as part of a tour of the United States. This will be an amazing opportunity to see in person this artifact that gives significant background information for the Bible.

    Thaddeus Williams — 

    鈥淎 mind is a terrible thing to waste.鈥 This slogan, first broadcast by the United Negro College Fund in 1972, has become something of a John 3:16 for educators seeking to evangelistically rouse students out of intellectual slumber. If I could tailor this slogan for our Biola community as we embark on a new semester, it would become: 鈥淭he mind of Christ is far too precious to not cultivate.鈥 While lacking the elegant phrasing and bumper sticker quote-ability of the original, it does express something I hope we can pause to ponder as we enter our classrooms.

    Gary Manning Jr — 

    Reza Aslan鈥檚 new book, Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth (Random House, 2013), is in most ways a typical attempt to paint a new picture of Jesus. Because so many hundreds of books of this type have been published, Aslan鈥檚 book would most likely not have received significant attention at all, except for two factors. First, a botched interview of the author on Fox News caused a huge surge of interest, making his book an overnight best seller. And second, Aslan is a very good writer. His primary teaching role, after all, is as a professor of creative writing at UC Riverside. Aslan is able to take a lot of important historical background and present it in a riveting manner, accessible to most readers.

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    Hace ya varios a帽os escuch茅 una frase que me ha hecho pensar constantemente y que refleja uno de los mayores peligros que enfrentan los l铆deres cristianos. La frase dice as铆: 鈥渆s importante no estar tan ocupado en la obra de Dios que nos olvidemos del Dios de la obra鈥. El problema no es el servicio a Dios sino el enfoque y, en muchos casos, la motivaci贸n que nos mueve al servicio. Estoy convencido que uno de los pecados principales de muchos l铆deres es el 茅nfasis obsesivo por el trabajo y, por lo tanto, el descuido de lo esencial y verdaderamente importante como Dios, la familia y el cuidado personal.
