It’s the weekend at last! I have spent this week with my family at Muskoka Bible Centre, hanging around during the day and preaching every evening. This is a great place to enjoy some summer vacation and we are sorry to have to head home today. While we pack up and head back to the city, here are some articles and videos you may enjoy:

R.C. Sproul Jr. gives you 5 Things to Look for in a Church. He ends this way: “If you find this list disheartening, if you feel there is no such body near you, get to work. A good church is less something you find, more something you build.”
The headline just about says it all: Challenging the Culture of Quarrelsome ‘Discernment’ Blogging. “I do not challenge biblical discernment. But I do want to challenge quarrelsome discernment: a counterfeit ‘discernment’ that revels in the fight, refuses to listen to others, and is careless with the truth.”
Please Be Careful of Tip Overs – “According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, a child dies roughly every two weeks due to tip-over incidents. The vast majority of victims are under the age of five.”
Thanks to RPTS for sponsoring the blog this week with Ancient Greek for the Digital Age.
There is no sin that exists that is more powerful than the grace that is to be found in the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
