A La Carte Collection cover image

Beautiful Photographs, Beautiful Cause – JT highlights the work of David Sacks. “David has recently produced a beautiful coffee table book of photographs he has taken there. It’s called True Africa.

Job the Film – The film adaptation of John Piper’s Job is now avaiable in the iTunes store.

Work as Worship – Why not read about work on your weekend?

When Are We Going to Grow Up? – Here’s a long but interesting article on the juvenalization of American Christianity. It applies to Canada just as much.

Congregations and Ministers – I appreciated what Paul Levy has to say to both pastors and congregations in this article. It deals with the way a pastor is compensated for his work.
