4) Islamic State group: The full story – BBC correspondent Jim Muir puts together a lengthy but comprehensive piece on the story behind ISIS.

5) Peter Hitchens on why it is time to emigrate – Laura Perrins conducts a fascinating written interview with writer & public-thinker Peter Hitchens, brother of late atheist Christopher. Some of his observations are very perceptive.

Hello, my name is Robin. Welcome to That Happy Certainty, where I write and collate on Christianity, culture, and ministry. I’m based in Barrow-in-Furness in South Cumbria, England, where I serve a church family called St Paul’s Barrow, recently merged together from two existing churches, St Paul’s Church and Grace Church Barrow.

Available Now: Advent 2021 – Finding Hope Under Bethlehem Skies

“If we could be fully persuaded that we are in the good grace of God, that our sins are forgiven, that we have the Spirit of Christ, that we are the beloved children of God, we would be ever so happy and grateful to God. But because we often fear and doubt we cannot come to that happy certainty.”
- Martin Luther
