4. Darryl Dash – Good Firefighters Don’t RushHurry robs us of our ability to love God and others and to think clearly. It makes us irritable. Hurry is the enemy of our souls.

5. Burk Parsons – Gratitude and Entitlement. We do well to remember that the road to abiding gratefulness is often paved with hardship that rids our hearts of any sense of entitlement. 

6. Erica L. Green and Dana Goldstein – Reading Scores on National Exam Decline in Half the States.  The results of the test, which assesses a sample of fourth- and eighth-grade students, will inevitably prompt demands for policy change.
