All I Have Is Christ – Desiring God is hosting a free download of the song “All I Have Is Christ.” The recording comes from the most recent Together for the Gospel conference.

A Visible, Exemplary Life – “As I mentor and coach leaders in North American churches, I find a common theme among many pastors: They live and lead in such a way so as to disqualify themselves as an elder in their own church.” Ouch.

Complacency is a deadly foe of all spiritual growth.

—A.W. Tozer
