Friday October 6, 2006 Conference: I don’t know what the Bonfire Conference is, but I have to admit a certain level of discomfort with a conference that gives away a door prize of a Hummer H3. Maybe it’s something Together for the Gospel should investigate next time. Testimony: Thabiti Anyabwile (I never get tired of…

An Ideal Resource For Your Family Devotions

There is a lot I miss from the days when our children were young. High on the list is family devotions. Nick once described our family as having a “Spartan-like commitment” to them, though I remember as much failure as success and as many misses as hits. Still, there’s no doubt that over the 26…

You Can Conform to Christ Even if You Don’t Conform to Me

One of the aspects of the Christian faith that I find particularly perplexing is the freedom God gives his people to obey him in different or even opposite ways, so that one person’s obedience is another person’s disobedience. Even as two people take the same action, one might be obeying him and the other disobeying…

Your Loved Ones Love You Still

The old adage may be trite, but that makes it no less true: Absence makes the heart grow fonder. There is something about being apart that stirs our affections, that causes us to understand and articulate what we might otherwise have taken for granted.
