A La Carte (October 31)

A La Carte Collection cover image

The Hardest Text to Preach – Here are three preachers giving their take on the hardest text they’ve had to preach (John MacArthur, Al Mohler, and H.B. Charles).

Prepare Him Room – This is a resource that may be helpful in preparing your family for the Christmas season.

Are You a Good Parent? – Julian has a good article for parents (who, in my experience, are chronically guilty!).

Get Married – Even though the article goes on a little long, there is lots of good in it. As one who got married at 21 and has never had even a moment’s regret, I fully agree: Hey young people: now’s the time to get married.

The Perils Facing the Evangelical Church – R.C. Sproul: “When we consider the predicament that the evangelical church of the twenty-first century faces in America, the first thing we need to understand is the very designation ‘evangelical church’ is itself a redundancy.”

Is the Reformation Over? – Kevin DeYoung outlines the issues that continue to separate Protestantism from Catholicism.

Owen

There is no death of sin without the death of Christ.

—John Owen
