Sono Harris Is With Jesus – Pray for the Harris family. “Today, July 4, 2010, at approximately 11pm, our dear mother, Sono Sato Harris, passed away and went to be with her Lord Jesus Christ. It was an entirely peaceful parting. Our family is grieving, and yet grieving as those who have hope because of Jesus’ death and resurrection for us. Goodnight, Mama.”

Ministry, Guilt and Seasons of Life – This is a fantastic article from Jani Ortlund in which she challenges women, mothers especially, not to live under the shadow of guilt. “As a young mother everyone wants something from you—your family, your church, your boss, your neighbor.

The so-called Letter from Bambarre was scribbled by the Scottish explorer on torn-out book pages in February 1871.”

    It’s Okay To Be a Two-Talent Christian

    It is for good reason that we have both the concept and the word average. To be average is to be typical, to be—when measured against points of comparison—rather unremarkable. It’s a truism that most of us are, in most ways, average. The average one of us is of average ability, has average looks, will…
