You and Me Forever – Christian Audio is having a flash offer that may interest you. For the next 2 days You and Me Forever by Francis & Lisa Chan is free.

An Unintended Consequence – Zac Hicks describes an unintended consequence of the missional movement. “Is it possible for the Church to be so sent that it is never gathered?”

Love Is… – Paul Tripp lists 23 things love is.

Reading as Parenting – This reminds me that it has been too long since my family has begun reading a new book together. “When we think about parenting, the word ‘books’ probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. But reading to our children is a fundamental but aspect of parenting little people, though we rarely talk about it in the context of raising children.”

Chandler

The commands of God are given, not to rob me of joy, but lead me into the fullness of joy.
