Life and limb
Andrée Seu Peterson considers how God oversees life and limb and everything else.
Olaudah Equiano: The Unsung Evangelist
“Olaudah Equiano is a name of lasting significance in secular historical discussions, English literary circles, and among students of evangelical church history.

What We Miss When We Skip the Book of Ezra
“I couldn’t find any data to justify this suspicion, but I would guess that Ezra is not commonly read or studied by modern Christians. I get it—among other barriers, there are long lists of names in chapters 2, 8, and 10. Yet, this little book has much to offer!” It does, indeed, as this article explains so well.

—Christopher Love
