Providence Is Sweet – Sometimes we can all use a reminder of just what a treasure the Bible is. This post will help you with that.

My Response to Kony – I really appreciated Matt Papa’s response to the Kony 2012 campaign. He recorded a great little video that gives some important context and asks some great questions.

Should I Divorce if I’m Miserable? – ” My wife and I are at an impasse. There’s been no abandonment, no sexual immorality, and no abuse. We just don’t get along. We shouldn’t have married. We should have known we are incompatible. I know God hates divorce but I don’t have any other option.
