As usual, there are some pretty good Kindle deals for those who collect them. And remember that Westminster Books is having a sale this week on books for kids. Belonging Scott Watkins: “Johanna lives on the main level, and I live in the upstairs. We have completely separate living spaces by necessity. The majority of…
Kindle deal hunters will find just a few relatively minor ones today. (Yesterday on the blog: Risen Motherhood) Is Your Church Frantic or Focussed? I like this one! “If focussed attention is our greatest resource, then frantic distraction must be our greatest weakness. The lack of attention we give to anything, and the harried, harassed…

This week’s blog post is sponsored by Southern Seminary, an institution that equips people for pastoral ministry, missions, and counseling in the truth that endures. J.T. English hears it all the time: “We live in a post-truth world.” That’s true, English says, but we have to resist the temptation to assume the church is a…
If you pay attention to Christian publishing, you’ll observe that certain themes come and go, rise and fall. One author will write a book on a subject and that may ignite interest so that several others follow up to challenge that person’s view, to affirm it, or to pursue it from a different angle. A…
Today’s Kindle deals include a whole stack of books on marriage. I’ve put the first few in the order I’d recommend reading them. You’ve got just one more day to take advantage of Logos’s great deal on the Word Biblical Commentary (which is discounted from $1199.99 to just $399.99). (Yesterday on the blog: May the…
Hymn Sunday is a collaboration with Getty Music. You will find a video along with downloadable sheet music. “Inspired by Psalm 67, this hymn is a call to worship and mission.
