Here is an important word about Introverts in the Dearest Place on Earth. “Both extroverts and introverts must do the work to see that those with the gift of introversion are a grace to God’s Church.

Is This What Love Looks Like? I would say it is. “My husband and I have been married nearly 20 years, and because we live in a city (and attend a church) teeming with young, professional singles, we’re often asked about marriage. There are things I wish to tell those eager for advice.”

Thank you to RPTS for sponsoring the blog this week with the article The Importance of Counseling Training in Pastoral Ministry.

We must be global Christians, with a global mission, because our God is a global God.

    When You Want It More Than They Do

    It can be both a joy and a trial to witness another person’s Christian life. It can be a joy when you learn that they long for holiness and that they long to strive toward what is theirs in Christ. It can be a trial when you learn that they appear to have little longing…
