    Going to Gatlinburg

    Terry Teachout is an arts critic, of conservative bent. He has a lovely post up about reliving part of his childhood in the Great Smoky Mountains near Gatlinburg, Tennessee, where he went to see a show he's reviewing. It's a lovely evocation of the power of nostalgia.

    Go to www.terryteachout.com. It's the third post from the top, entitled "Among the Clouds."

    The gospel would be better understood if the fact of universal sinfulness were more deeply felt. - Alexander Maclaren (1826-1910), commenting on Romans 3:19-26.

    Great article. I am not as old as he but I have fond memories of camping and hiking in the Smokies. I have been up there at least twice a year for the past 32 years and global warming <tongue in cheek> has surely made the trails longer than I remember when I was younger.

    It definitely is a beautiful place to relish in God's glory, enjoy the Creator and His creation and praise Him for His majesty.
