The great thing about going on holiday is that it takes one away from his/her regular activities. This gives him/her the opportunity to engage in such activities as extensive reading. I wish I could say that this is what I did, but I can't. However, in the past week I did finish reading John Piper's "The Legacy of Sovereign Joy", the first book in his series "The Swans are Not Silent" (available as a free pdf ebook download here [600kb - it's worth it!]). The subtitle is an accurate summary of the books content, "God's Triumphant Grace in the Lives of Augustine, Luther, and Calvin".
