A La Carte (11/23)

A La Carte Collection cover image

It’s Black Friday today, and for the past few days I’ve been trying to put together a list of deals that may be of particular interest to Christians. You can find that page right here. There are lots of deals on books, music and other items.

Black Friday Deals to Avoid – There are some good reasons to hit the stores on Black Friday, but this article gives a few items that tend not to be worth it.

The Moment of Salvation – Here are ten things that happen at the moment of salvation.

Anti-Santy Ranty – I don’t make it a habit to beat up on Santa (since, after all, he’s a pretty easy mark). But I did enjoy this poetic comparison of Santa and God.

Truth has no degrees or shades. A half truth is a whole lie, and a white lie is really black.

—John MacArthur

    Amazon’s annual Prime Day deals are here, and for those of us who use Amazon anyway, it’s a time to get some deals. You’ll find items on sale across all categories. Of course, my interest is in books and, thankfully, there are lots of great deals to be had (in printed, not Kindle editions).
