This sponsored post was prepared by Missional Wear.

“Never could it be possible for any man to estimate what he owes to a godly mother.” Charles Spurgeon wrote these words while reflecting on his parents and early childhood life. In the coming weeks we too will dedicate special time to celebrate and honor these mothers (May 9th) and fathers (June 20th) who have so profoundly shaped us. My friends at Missional Wear have put together a list of unique and one-of-a-kind thoughtful gifts to show your appreciation!

Will You Be a Pillar?

How do we lead in a culture shaped by performance, individualism, and platform? Platforms to Pillars by cultural commentator Mark Sayers offers a biblical alternative to the platform mentality that dominates our society.

And I expressed that just as the winds blow hardest against the tallest trees, so temptations may press hardest against the leaders who rise the highest. Just as floods press against shallow roots, so seductive desires rise up against those whose fall would bring…

They Won’t Because They Can’t

If you’ve flown recently, you have probably made the same observation I have: No one pays attention to the pre-flight safety videos. There may be the occasional uptick in interest after a well-publicized crash or near-disaster, but soon old habits return—people stuff their AirPods into their ears and stare at their phones rather than watch…

Men in the Image of Women and Women in the Image of Men

God made men and God made women. God made men distinct from women and women distinct from men. God made men and women equal in worth and value while also making them distinct in some purpose and function. It’s all obvious stuff, this—obvious matters of differences between the sexes.
