I Messed Up – Deepak Reju: “If you are dating someone right now, are you scared to tell him or her about your sinful past? Whether you’ve struggled with difficult sins from the past, or you are still struggling with significant sins right now, it’s important to talk to your future spouse about these things.”

Do Not Ask Your Husbands – We’ve seen lots of good posts about questions husbands should ask their wives and wives should ask their husbands. Here are five questions that wives should not ask their husbands.

Sincerity of His Love – That God is triune, “changes the flavor and meaning of every word we use about him” writes Michael Reeves. For instance, if God were not triune, his wrath would be “hideous,” but since God, as Trinity, is essentially loving. Be sure to read the quote.

The Great Election Tragedy – “The tragedy of the 2012 election is that in this land of the free and home of the brave, many people were not allowed to vote. Their voices were silenced. Their votes were not cast. Their opinions not expressed.”

To know the will of God is the greatest knowledge! To do the will of God is the greatest achievement!

—George Truett
