Don’t Put God in a Box – I know you’ve heard this one before: Don’t put God in a box (when it comes to the miraculous gifts). Erik Raymond has a good response.

The Origin of OK – Where does the word “OK” come from? This video will tell you the origins of a word you’ve probably never thought about before.

Why I Am Relentlessly Committed to Expository Preaching – Just like the title says.

Good Fruit – This catchy little song for kids will get stuck in your head. The video nicely complements it.

When to Cover, When to Confront – Ray Ortlund has wise counsel about when to cover a sin and when to confront it.

Verses App – Verses is my favorite Bible memory app. It’s just gone free (for the KJV) with paid upgrades for other translations.

It’s Okay to Be Bored – Yes, it is okay for your kids to be bored in church.

Keller

To pray is to accept that we are, and always will be, wholly dependent on God for everything.

    Tiptoeing to the Edge of Cliffs

    Not too long ago, there was a trend in which people would see how close they could come to being hit by a train without actually being hit by a train. That’s about as stupid a game as I can imagine. Play stupid games, win stupid games, as the kids say. But researching sin when…
