Bed and Board

by Robert Capon

I’ve only read a couple things by Capon, but, man, he makes me care about caring more.

Bed and Board is very good. The Supper of the Lamb is very great. One significant difference, that really has everything to do with the writer rather than the writing, is that Bed and Board is directly aimed at marriage and family, and Capon himself divorced his wife, who had given him six children, after 27 years.

Now anyone who teaches/talks/writes probably can say better than live, and yet, a certain line is crossed where one’s walk undoes a significant portion of one’s talk. 

Anyway, knowing all we do, the pages are still profitable, and encourage faithful pursuing and practicing of the right thing. Highly recommended, even with above caveats.
