A New Blog

I love finding a new blog to read. It’s kind of like finding a good new book that you can look forward to settling down with. Last night I got an email from the author of Joe Missionary asking to be part of the next BlogSwap. I had never heard of his blog, but read through some of it and was especially happy to read his two articles on Hearing God’s Voice. I have been putting a lot of thought into this subject in the past few days and had determined I was going to buy a book on that subject later today. So his comments were right on time.

  • Motives Matter

    Motives matter, even (or perhaps especially) when it comes to something as very good as studying the Bible. The best motive for reading the Bible is to be transformed by it. For this to happen, we must approach our reading and studying with both confidence and humility, asking God to transform us through his Word.…
