Free Stuff Fridays

It’s Friday and that means I’ve got another Free Stuff Fridays for you. This week’s sponsor is Shepherd Press, a name I’m sure most are familiar with. “Shepherd Press is committed to provide God’s people with solid biblical books and materials. … At Shepherd Press we look for materials that … will enable us to identify the idols of the heart that pollute our service to Christ, keeping us mired in confusion, unable to obey God. They will also encourage us that we can “do all things through Christ who gives [us] strength.” Remember the gospel is for Christians. We daily repent and cast ourselves on the abundant grace of Jesus Christ.”

This week five participants will each win a copy of Paul David Tripp’s new book Broken-Down House: Living Productively in a World Gone Bad along with his previous title Lost in the Middle. “Sin has ravaged the house that God created. It sits slumped, disheveled, in pain and groaning for the restoration that can only be accomplished by the hands of him who built it in the first place. The good news is that the divine Builder will not relent until everything about his house is made new again. The bad news is that you and I are living right in the middle of the restoration process. We live each day in a house that is terribly broken, where nothing works exactly as intended. But Emmanuel lives here as well, and he is at work returning his house to its former beauty.”

Here is a video in which Tripp describes this book:

    As a new Lord’s Day dawns, it seems fitting that we remind ourselves of the power and purpose of the precious privileges of hearing from God, speaking to God, and belonging to God.

    I have lots of good memories from the various conferences I have been to through the years, but there is one that often stands out.
