A La Carte (January 10)

Do You Know What Your Missionaries Actually Teach?! – “Stop sending prosperity-preaching missionaries to the jungles of Peru. They’re killing the villages here.

Sleep Deprivation – As an apparently incurable insomniac, this concerns me!

Pro-Life Convictions – “For Owen Strachan, convictions come with a cost. Strachan, an assistant professor of Christian theology and church history at Boyce College, has been pro-life for many years. It wasn’t until recently, however, that he decided to act on his conviction.”

How Much Do You Earn? – David Murray talks about an interesting way of teaching his kids about money.

Spurgeon’s Standards – Jeremy Walker shares some interesting facts from Spurgeon’s life and ministry.

When Women Lust – “We all know that men struggle with lust. But what about women?

Such comparisons don’t help because men and women often struggle in different ways.”
