Faithful Pastor, You’re Not Crazy – Ray Ortlund.: “A text message came in from a pastor friend. I’ve known him for decades. He is the kind of man for whom the adjective ‘saintly’ was invented.

Deep Discounts on Books – Westminster Books offers clearance and ultra-clearance books. There are some pretty good deals to be had!

Christian Leader in the Digital Age – Al Mohler: “If the leader is not leading in the digital world, his leadership is, by definition, limited to those who also ignore or neglect that world, and that population is shrinking every minute. The clock is ticking.”

Even as I ask the question, I know I’m liable to self-destructive sin too.”

Packer

There can be no greater glory for man than to glorify God.
