A La Carte Collection cover image

Prayer Request – Charles Woodrow (whom my church has supported for many years) is doing amazing missions work in Mozambique and he has a very specific and time-sensitive prayer request for all of us.

A Mess Worth Making – This is a long and kind of dense article from Kevin DeYoung and Ryan Kelly, but it’s one worth reading.

A Meandering on Marriage – I enjoyed these thoughts on marriage. As promised they meander a little, but that’s okay.

7 Things – Here are 7 things every guy should know about buying a suit. If you’re like me, you’ll want your wife to watch it so she can help you shop better.

Judging Others – Here are 7 signs that you may just be judging others.

He’s Not a Woman – I can only imagine how much trouble this article has caused its author. Common sense is a lost virtue. “Sex is a biological reality, and it is not subordinate to subjective impressions, no matter how intense those impressions are, how sincerely they are held, or how painful they make facing the biological facts of life. No hormone injection or surgical mutilation is sufficient to change that.”

Shaw

Satan and all his agents, with all their combined strength and subtilty, cannot separate one soul from Christ.

—Robert Shaw

    I Regret to Inform You That Heaven Tourism Is Back

    I regret to inform you, dear reader, that heaven tourism is back. The genre possibly never went away entirely, but it did at least disappear from the bestseller lists for several years. Sadly, it has returned in Gabe Poirot’s 18 Days in Heaven.
