The Abundance of Giving – John MacArthur argues that of all the things we look forward to when coming to church, giving should be near the top of the list.

Evangelism as a Mom – This article is really encouraging. A mother of young children shares how she learned to share the gospel. Sometimes it’s as simple as just making the opportunities; people may be more eager to hear the gospel than we imagine.
