25 Facts on the Importance of Fathers – Here’s Joe Carter doing what Joe Carter does.

Ecclesiology of the New Calvinism – I certainly don’t agree with all this author says, but I did benefit from his take on New Calvinist ecclesiology (based on the book Creature of the Word). He writes from a confessional Dutch Reformed perspective.

Taking God at His Word – Westminster Seminary held an event to mark the release of Kevin DeYoung’s Taking God at His Word. You can now watch all the video from that event.

A Quest for More – New Growth Press is offering Paul Tripp’s book A Quest for More as a free download. Today only!

Daaaad! – This Father’s Day video rings true.

Christ Receives the Devil’s Castaways – I love these little historical vignettes from Vance Christie. “Lady Huntingdon, a member of the aristocracy in eighteenth-century England, was a zealous Evangelical Christian who heartily supported the ministry of George Whitefield. She regularly had him speak to aristocratic audiences in the drawing room of her estate mansion.”

    Prime Day Deals for Christians

    Amazon’s annual Prime Day deals are here, and for those of us who use Amazon anyway, it’s a time to get some deals. You’ll find items on sale across all categories. Of course, my interest is in books and, thankfully, there are lots of great deals to be had (in printed, not Kindle editions).
