Free Stuff Fridays (LifeWay)

Free Stuff Fridays

This week’s Free Stuff Friday is sponsored by LifeWay who also sponsored the blog this week. They are giving away 10 copies of J.D. Greear’s new book, Gospel Above All: The Gospel is the Source of the Church’s Renewal.

Here is how they describe it:

Pundits are writing the obituary of historic, orthodox Christianity, but pastor and author J. D. Greear (Gospel, Stop Asking Jesus into Your Heart) believes the postmortems are premature. Jesus promised to build His church. He said that the gates of hell would not prevail against it. The church is not going away.

Along with this promise, Jesus gave clear instructions for how the church would prevail. He promised to build it on the rock of the gospel.

The most pressing need for Christianity today is not a new strategy. It is not an updated message. It is a return to the gospel above all.

Pickup a copy today and learn more at GospelAboveAllBook.com.

Also visit LifeWay.com — if you buy 10 copies or more, you get 50% off for you and your church members.

    On the Other Side of the Wall

    A story is told of a convalescent woman and the lovely vine that grew in her yard.

And he is cute beyond belief. They…
