The Loss of Pastoral Credibility in the Age of the Internet – “The Internet has introduced a new level of visibility to areas of our social life, exposing certain uncomfortable realities.” Alistair explains how the credibility of pastors is suffering as a result.

Build Character, Not Platform – There is a time for both, I guess, but I love Derwin Gray’s focus here: Worry less about building your platform, and focus more attention on character.

15 Reasons Why We Should Still Be Using Hymnals – You probably won’t agree with everything he says, but the article is well worth some reflection.

Preaching about Body Image – There’s something to be said for this: Pastors ought to preach about body image.

Henry

What peace can they have who are not at peace with God?
