A La Carte (October 11)

tuesday

Blessings to you on this fine day!

I was grateful to be on Chris Fabry Live on Moody Radio yesterday and on the Disciple-Making Parent Podcast last week.

Amazon has lots of deals today, including on their devices like the Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Oasis, Fire tablet, Echo, and Echo Show. They also have lots of board games on sale, plus lots of other stuff because of their Prime Early Access sale.

The fruit of giving out a few books

I love few things more than giving away books, so this article resonated with me.

Will My Spouse Be My Best Friend in Heaven?

John Piper answers this question in his latest Ask Pastor John.

Flashback: Longing for What’s Second Best

While we can and should pray for those things we long for, we should always pray that what we long for would be according to God’s will.

—F.B. Meyer
