There is once again a very significant list of Kindle deals. We are spoiled.
Logos users, you’ll want to look at this long list of commentaries for only $7.99 each. And, of course, you can look at the free and nearly-free books of the month.

Flashback: How To Lead and How To Follow
Each of us is called to lead and to follow in a distinctly Christian way. According to Jesus’s Golden Rule, that must look something like this: Lead in the way you’d want to be led; follow in the way you’d want to be followed.
Sin is a boring routine, not a fresh excitement. The fast lane becomes an old rut. Evil never lends itself to originality.
