Taking it easy this summer?
Once, to my shame, I laughed at Don Carson. You need to know that I have the greatest respect for Don. I think he is one of the great theologians of our time. To me, he is ‘the Don’. And many times I have laughed with him during his preaching, and have chuckled at asides in his writing, but this was definitely at him. So what had he said? ‘I relax by memorising Psalms.’
That was it! I laughed at Don Carson because he said, ‘I relax by memorising Psalms’. And I laughed aloud because nothing sounds like harder work to me. At the end of a day at work, having put the kids to bed and cleared the kitchen, the last thing I would think of to relax is memorising Scripture.
