Salvation Accomplished By the Son – If you’d like to do some Good Friday and Easter reading, Crossway is offering a free download of a significant portion of Robert Peterson’s Salvation Accomplished by the Son.

Revelation – If you ever read the Revelation graphic novel by Chris Koelle, you may be interested in buying some prints or other related art work. Chris has opened a store that sells all kinds of good things.

Calvary shows how far men will go in sin, and how far God will go for man’s salvation.
