Deep Roots Library – I really like what I’m seeing out of Deep Roots Library, which “exists to serve the Church by making writings from Christian history accessible, readable, affordable, and searchable. We believe that there is great value in fellowship among believers, even if they are centuries removed from where we are today.” Today only you can get 25 ebooks for free just for visiting the site.

What Shall I Preach on Next? – Here’s a helpful article for pastors. It gives some guidance on how to choose what you’ll preach next.

What we think about when we are free to think about what we will – that is what we are or will soon become.
