By the time you read this, I will likely be on my way to Gaithersburg, Maryland. As you know, I’ll be bringing live updates from the WorshipGod06 conference beginning this evening.

I hope you’ll check in over the next couple of days!

I probably don’t need to tell you how much I love books in general, and Christian books in particular. One of my favorite times to be a reader is in mid-December when people begin to share their picks for the top books of the year. I collect all of the lists written by sites or…

There are times when we all find ourselves lamenting our circumstances. These may be times in which we grieve life’s losses or suffer life’s indignities, or these may be times in which we grapple with the frustrations that come with life in this world—when our skills are underutilized, or our contributions are underappreciated.
