Today’s Kindle deals include some amazing picks like Collin Hansen’s tremendous biography of Tim Keller, Christine Chappell’s Midnight Mercies, and Paul Tautges’ Remade. I don’t think I’ve seen either of those on sale before. There’s a lot else with them, including many general market books.
Westminster Books has a deal on the brilliant Little Pilgrim’s Progress.

Understanding Your Hindu Neighbor
If you have friends or neighbors who are Hindu, this article may help you better understand them and know how to minister to them. “Obviously, you will never be equipped to navigate a meaningful relationship with a Hindu unless you first experience Jesus’ love. As you do, you will experience a renewed desire to love and enjoy your neighbor and a willingness to set aside what seems most comfortable so you may humbly live in relationship with others.”
What’s So Intimidating About the Bible?
Rebekah Matt explains how intimidating the Bible was when she first encountered it. “Now, in the last forty years, many Bibles have become more readable and user-friendly, in terms of layout, design, and ‘helps’ alongside the text. This is a good thing!

Letter to a Brother Stuck in Pornography
I’m sure there are some men out there who will benefit from reading this hard-hitting but pastoral letter. “One of the worst deceptions you are believing is that you are going to be stuck here forever. If I was to boil down the Bible’s teaching on sin to a single truth, it would be: The gospel exists to defeat sin! Really, sin is nothing compared with the power of the gospel when it starts to work in a heart.”
15 Questions for Evolutionists
Here’s a list of questions that evolutionists need to be able to answer if they want to remain plausible.
When Seminary Comes Later
Jason Min explains why, for him, seminary came a little later in life. His article will be helpful to those who are considering doing the same. “Going to seminary later in life completely changed the way I approached my studies. Life experience gave me a lens that enriched every class. I wasn’t in seminary to figure out what I wanted to do with my life. I knew why I had come and what I was looking for. I wasn’t chasing grades or trying to impress professors. I was hungry.”
Clean?
Susan Lafferty: “‘Do I need to wash and be clean before I pick up the Bible?’ Her sincere question reveals requirements. Certain rituals governing her life before this. Now she’s in the early days of following Christ. And eager to learn.”
Flashback: A Whole List of Reasons to Consider Marrying Young
Over the past few decades, marriage in many Western countries has transformed from a rite-of-passage into adulthood to something more like an optional add-on to middle-age. Contra the culture both within and outside of the church, I remain an advocate of marrying young.
Do not be guided by providences when you are refusing to be guided by God’s Word.
