Podcast: In the newest episode of Word Matters, Tom Schreiner joins me and Brandon Smith to discuss Romans 1 and the question, “Does the Bible forbid same-sex sexual activity?”
Kindle Deal: One of my favorite books from the past ten years is Notes from the Tilt-a-whirl by N. D. Wilson. It’s only 99 cents on Kindle right now. It gets at the “way of wonder” I was recommending for writers and artists earlier this week.
Interview: Drew Dyck for CT Pastors spoke with me recently about This Is Our Time, and the interview summary can be found here: “Leading Fearlessly in a Changing Culture.” This is one of my favorite interviews ever. Thanks, Drew!
Seven of the best articles I came across this week:
1. Gracy Olmstead – Can “Localism” Restore Sanity to U.S. Politics? Glad to see Gracy with a NYT Opinion piece about a very important subject.
2. Beth Moore – My Five Keys to Accountability. A lot of wisdom here for leaders on steadiness of faith and purity.
3. Allan Carlson – Family Phases. The history of family strength in America may reveal good news.
4. Chris Martin – What I Didn’t Know Before I Wrote a Book. Proud to see Chris’ reflections on understanding, reaching, and equipping millennials now in book form!
5. Lisa Whittle – How to Lose a Pastor in 10 Years. Hard-hitting reflection on how pastoral failures affect the family and the faith of others.
6. T. D. Alexander – Be Heavenly Minded So That You’re of Earthly Good. This gets at the heart of what I am arguing for in Eschatological Discipleship.
7. Derek Thompson – Disneyflix is coming. Netflix should be scared. And movie theaters, too.
