Yesterday at dinner I asked the kids for their favorite summer memory. My son went with winning the baseball championship with his little league team.

A Bible on the Moon – “The first lunar Bible traveled to Earth’s satellite on February 5, 1971, on board Apollo 14. Lunar Module Pilot Edgar D.

Roots and Wings – This documentary on Indelible Grace looks really interesting. You can view a trailer here.

Those with an appetite for tragic tales might enjoy the following…”
Sermon Hymns I – This is an interesting presentation. “‘The Gospel of Jesus Christ’ is the first movement of a planned multi-movement composition entitled Sermon Hymns. This composition is a multimedia work for piano with electronic audio and video playback.” Be sure to give it a fair listen as it begins to really swell near the conclusion.
The smallest tract may be the stone in David’s sling. In the hands of Christ it may bring down a giant soul.
