As I understand it, the eBooks you can create are only viewable on an iPad. And when they say only, then mean only. Not on a Mac, or an iPhone, or another e-reader. I’ll be passing, I’m afraid.

Your link on sermon/lecture was great though. I’ve been saying for a while that (at least in my context here in your homeland of Scotland), people have gotten confused between true expository preaching, and an (often dry, length) exegetical lecture. This has led to a massive decline of both preaching in general, and in particular preaching directly from the Word. I believe this is one factor that makes people associate sermons with information (and/or) instruction, rather than the transformation that Sean Lucas talks about.

I’ve been reading your blog for almost a year now, but have never commented. First I’d like to express my appreciation for your links—that they’re not the same ones others in the Reformed blogosphere (or at least that portion of it that I frequent) point to.
Additionally, I smile every time I read of “the items tech will kill”, or something similar as I find it to be such a narrow view of the world. I’m certain that in more than ten years from now, paper books and smartless phones will still exist—maybe not in the Western world, but most definitely in the 2/3 world (where I’m from). And you’ll have to pry my wrist watch from my cold, dead hands!
