King for a Week – TheResurgence

Articles Collection cover image

King for a Week is an honor I bestow on blogs that I feel are making a valuable contribution to my faith and the faith of other believers…or sometimes just because I really like them. It is a way of introducing my readers to blogs that they may also find interesting and edifying. Every now and again I select a blog, link to it from my site, and add that site’s most recent headlines to my right sidebar. While this is really not much, I do feel that it allows me to encourage and support other bloggers while making the readers of this blog aware of other good sites.

This week’s King for a Week is TheResurgence. Resurgence is “a movement that resources multiple generations to live for Jesus so that they can effectively reach their cities with the gospel by staying culturally accessible and Biblically faithful.” It is a ministry connected to the teaching ministry of Mars Hill Church (i.e. Mark Driscoll’s church). It covers an eclectic range of topics, though most are connected to ministry in general and missional ministry in particular. Regular contributors to the blog include Mark Driscoll, Ed Stetzer, Anthony Bradley, and others. Beyond the blog, TheResurgence offers all sorts of good articles dealing with all kinds of good and important theology and much of site’s best content can be found in this articles section. It is a good site with a growing body of content and is well worth adding to your RSS reader.

In the coming days (and/or weeks) you will be able to see the most recent headlines from this blog in the sidebar of my site. I hope you will make your way over to look around.

    What Does It Mean to Be Discerning?

    Though I have heard it said of others, I have never had anyone tell me that I am a man of discerning tastes. I do not have a discerning palate or a discerning sense of style. I can, however, contentedly live without these if only I can have a discerning mind and a discerning spirit.

    You May Not Need Nearly as Much House as You Think You Do

    Our house is emptier than it has ever been, and that makes it feel bigger than it has ever been. It’s funny how the home that often felt just a little too small for the five of us now feels just a little too big for the two of us. Even a little house can…
