Church in a Tech Society – This is a thought-provoking article: “Whatever our reasons for using technology, we must make a deal. We must sign a contract with technology. Technology wants efficiency, and if we agree to its terms, we can use it for whatever goals we have. But technology’s methods alter our own practices and in the process often transform our goals.”

Forever – Westminster Books has a great sale on the new book by Paul David Tripp. They’ve got a few other items on sale as well. Meanwhile, CVBBS is also having a site-wide sale.

Who Pays for Your Spouse’s Sin? – I believe I may have linked to this article in the past, but I find it well worth another read. Even the title is worth pondering. Who pays for your spouse’s sin? Your spouse, or Jesus Christ?
