Greetings! May you be blessed and strengthened in the Lord today.
- Hope When Your Child Leaves for College – As a professor, I really appreciated this reflection of preparing to say goodbye to his daughter as she leaves for college. When it comes time for my kids to do the same, I hope to have a similar perspective.
- Rejoicing in the Truth (Even When It’s Taught by Someone Else) – This post is about writing but it could certainly be about any other ministry and is a great reminder to serve so that God gets the acclaim, and not me.
- If I Was the World’s Only Christian –“If I was the world’s only Christian, or the world’s only kind of Christian, I would have good reason to question my faith and to doubt its validity. But it’s beautifully and wonderfully true that our God is the God of all kinds of people and that he is building a kingdom of young and old, great and poor, black and white, wise and simple, famous and unknown.”
- Look for Your Moral Blind Spots –“I don’t know where your blind spots are, but surely there are many areas of our lives where we need to work on applying true, biblical justice. Let’s not merely react to the culture’s critical theory, social justice, and Marxism while leaving the issues they point to out of the conversation; let’s work to apply the biblical understanding of true justice to issues like racism, prison and police reform, abortion, homelessness, addiction, poverty, fatherlessness, immigration, and more.”
- A Crucial Court Case Exposes the Darkness of America’s Worst Industry This was difficult to read. It is a heartbreaking account, but it is important for parents to be aware of the horror to which kids are far too easily exposed. May we stay vigilant and may we diligently pray for justice to be done.
- Entrusting My Treasure – “There are no guarantees in this life. At least, not the kind that keep you healthy, wealthy, and wise. We are all in His hands—father, mother, sister, brother, missionary, or local church member. And He is so trustworthy!”
