three more reasons to love N.T. Wright: his Cockburn and "skubala" references, and fearlessness about acknowledging he speaks in tongues

It should be no surprise that N.T. Wright has heard of Bruce Cockburn, let alone considers some of his songs "remarkable" (I'll bet his good friend Brian Walsh is responsible).  I hope you know that God  is "especially fond" of Bruce.  NT:

Bonus:  How about mentioning..in passing, as if it is no big deal, that has been known to speak in tongues,
