A La Carte (May 5)

When You Can’t Say “He” or “She” – I invariably enjoy Bill Mounce’s reflections on language and translation.

How to Find a Mentor – There is lots of sage counsel in this one from Russell Moore.

The Right Time to Tell My Darkest Secret – Joshua Rogers tells about the difficulty he had in revealing his darkest secret (which involves sexual victimization).

The Heresy of Indifference – Burk Parsons: “When people tell me they are into Jesus but not into doctrine, I tell them that if they are not into doctrine, they are, in fact, not into Jesus.”

What the Media Isn’t Telling You – Michael Kruger tells you exactly what the media won’t tell you about the arguments over same-sex marriage.

Two Billion Bibles – The Gideons just distributed their two billionth Bible. They were even outside my son’s high school the other day, simply giving away Bibles to whoever wanted one.

The Bible does not present an art of prayer; it presents the God of prayer.

—Edmund Clowney

    Now’s the Time To Consider a New Year’s Resolution

    The Bible says nothing about New Year’s resolutions.

In other words, the determination and resolve to be more like Christ.
