Starting the Day Off Right – Nancy Leigh DeMoss writes about personal devotions. “As Father’s Day approaches, I’m reflecting on the legacy I have received from my father—some of the principles he taught and modeled that have shaped my life.”

Hell – Francis Chan just released this video in which he talks about a book he is working on that deals with the issue of hell.

Islands in the Stream – Here is a gallery of some extraordinary homemade dams holding back the Mississippi as desperate residents try to save their homes.

Jogging While Mowing – “What would you say about a pastor who jogged while he mowed his lawn? He was so committed to ministry that he wanted to spend as little time as possible on non-ministry tasks. I know such a pastor. He’s an example of a pastor who works very hard in ministry. At first glance, it looks like he’s redeeming the time. Is he an example for all of us?”

I never saw a useful Christian who was not a student of the Bible.

—D.L. Moody
