		<description><![CDATA[Today I finished by current Bible reading plan by reading the last few chapters of Revelation. Tomorrow I will begin again in Genesis.

		<description><![CDATA[The following blog post is taken from the prayer letter of a friend of mine, who is serving as a missionary in South Asia. I appreciate the way that she draws life lessons from the experience of Israel, and that she applies it first to herself. I thought it was a good follow-up to my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last month, I started serving  in a new position at the Portland Chinese Christian and Missionary Alliance Church. This brings to an end a transition period that has lasted a year and a half. Now that things are beginning to settle down, I want to share my reflections about this time of transition. An Uncertain [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I read through Psalm 119 in my daily Bible reading.  This is a really amazing chapter in the Bible.  It is the longest chapter in the Bible, and nearly every verse says something about God&#8217;s word.  If you want to learn something about the nature and purpose of the Bible, this is the place [...]]]></description>

The song begins, &#8220;That the leaders took the lead in Israel, that the people offered themselves willingly, bless the LORD!&#8221; (Judges 5:2, ESV) In my last post I discussed the first part of this verse, but what about the second part?
