WOAAA PODCASTS!!!

So I just found out what podcasts are and that they are freeeee.  I just subscribed to a few.  Today I was listening to two people and both had excellent quotes in them  The first was by Ravi Zacharias.  He was talking about Gandhi and Christ.  This is what Ravi said about Gandhi

Many Things he wished he could remove (of the Christian faith).  Many things he didn't understand, many thing he didn't like.  But the most powerful truth in the Christian gospel is unmatched anywhere else.  It is the cross of Jesus Christ.

The Second is by Alistair Begg decribing "wisdom" and universities in relation to Jeremiah 9:23-24
There is a sense in which the average university campus is a microcosm of western 
culture unraveling at the very fountainhead of intellectualism.  We are supposed to 
anticipate that if there is an answer anywhere presumably it is here.  Presumably after
all this time man in his wisdom has been able to sort it all out.  But of course even to
say that sounds ridiculous.  You only need tomorrow's newspaper to know that we are 
not sorting much out at all.  And the word of God is.....You shouldn't boast in your 
wisdom.  Some of the worst graffiti that you can find, the cleverest and rudest graffiti
is found in University campuses.  Wisdom is not synonymous with goodness.

Mr. Begg certainly knows college campuses.

Thanks for the quotes! Good stuff. I like Begg's comment about wisdom is not synonymous with goodness.
