What Tom Nettles Taught Me – Don’t miss this one. “Tom Nettles retired last week as professor of historical theology at Southern Seminary, capping off a long and distinguished career. As I thought about his retirement, I reflected on what I’ve learned from this iconic Baptist historian, and it was hard to find a place to start.”

Six Principles for Youth Ministry – Here are six valuable principles to consider for youth ministry.

The Mansion: A Subprime Parable – I enjoyed this bit of writing from Michael Lewis.

Skipping Church – Here is a parable from Charles Spurgeon. He explains why people may be skipping church.

Empathetically Correct – This article deals with the “trigger warning” phenomenon and the move toward being empathetically correct (instead of merely politically correct).

Herbert

Death used to be an executioner, but the gospel has made him just a gardner.
