Du Jour: Al Mohler covers a New York Times article discussing the plight of black men.

Children: C.J. Mahaney has a wonderful article in which he discusses how he helps prepare his son (and himself) for Sunday worship. “My approach to preparing Chad for the Sunday meeting has been informed by the doctrine of the church as clearly taught in Scripture and the Savior’s love for the church as compelling demonstrated on the cross.”

Persecution: Many bloggers have written about Abdul Rahman, a Christian in Afghanistan who may face the death penalty for being a Christian. Michael Haykin has a good suggestion for Muslim clerics: “read some of our Baptist forebears to see what real tolerance is about.”

Church: Take a look at the preaching lineup that will be holding down the pulpit of Bethlehem Baptist Church while John Piper is on sabbatical. The list includes Wayne Grudem, Sam Storms, C.J. Mahaney, and Bruce Ware.
