Every year I put together a round-up of Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals that are of interest to Christians. So be sure to check in on Friday and over the weekend—already I’m getting wind of some pretty good deals.

Pagans in the Youth Group – Help! There are pagans in my youth group!

Shepherd Press eBooks – For just a couple of days Westminster Books is offering all Shepherd Press ebooks at $1.99.

6 Joys and Perils of Full Time Ministry – There is some good stuff in this article by Josh Moody.

How to Buy Groceries – If you’re the shopper in your home, you may appreciate this guide to smart shopping at the supermarket.
