Living on Less
Canada’s McLeans magazine looks at frugality for a new generation. “But even beyond a deep economic recession, there are signs that meaningful social change is brewing.

Fireproof Shouldn’t Be Critic-Proof
I thought this article from WORLD, even if it slightly overstates the issue, offers a fair warning. “We do the Kendrick brothers no favors when we grant them a “pass” based on good intentions.

I improved because of tough feedback from teachers, mentors, and–sometimes–critics.”

Jesus Christ is Stronger
James MacDonald offers some gospel encouragements.
