Today’s episode is titled “Mind Your Christmas Imperatives.”
Today’s episode is brought to you by me. I don’t have a sponsor for this episode, so why don’t you go out and buy my book Devoted: Great Men and Their Godly Moms. It’s a book I wrote about men whose primary spiritual influence was their mother.
As 2026 began, I decided to change up my devotions. I have followed roughly the same pattern for the last 15 or 20 years and thought it would be nice to freshen things up a little bit. It went poorly.
Hell’s evangelistic appeal / Sleepless nights / Was the multiplication of the early church a miraculous movement? / When evangelism is dispiriting / The fiery darts / In praise of a sending church / Preparing for ministry / and more.
Should you marry her anyway? / Be sure your sin will find you out / How can we be ready to meet the Lord? / Aging is a series of relinquishments / Making the Christian life more complicated than it needs to be / Happy birthday to you! / Sales and deals / and more.
The world can feel unfair when we ponder all we might have been. But God sovereignly places each of us exactly where we can best serve and honor him.
Does the church need your worship song? / God’s plan for your prayers / Guard your women’s ministry against false teaching / When we despise ordinary help / Inspire others to be better Christians / Bowing our heads to the providence of God / Kindle deals / and more.
Works & Wonders offers a collection of interesting and uplifting bits and pieces on: Viking Christians, wedding vows, magnified sand, Amazon knockoffs, a giant “chicken and egg” problem, and a brief devotional, of course.
