Good morning. Hope you have a great weekend!
  • Have you ever heard someone pit joy and delight against reverence and awe when talking about worship; as though you emphasize one to the detriment the other? That's a false dichotomy. 
    Nehemiah 1:11 "O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who delight to fear your name, and give success to your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man." (emphasis added)
    As Nehemiah seeks God's help in his mission he speaks of servants of God who delight to fear his name. You see it's not delight or fear; it's delighting to fear. It's both.
  • Radically ordinary. From Burk Parsons. 
  • Seven warnings for church leaders who use social media. Thom Rainer has some good thoughts most of which really apply to just about anyone who uses social media. Take note!
  • Kindle Deals - For those who attend GBC, one of the books I've cited in our sermon series on work is available at a discount on Kindle. The Gospel at Work by Sebastian Traeger and Greg Gilbert is $3.99. Also on sale is a book I've heard is quite good regarding productivity in our work. What's Best Next: How the Gospel Transforms the Way You Get Things Done is $3.79. I haven't read it yet, but I have it now and want to read it! R.C. Sproul's Surprised by Suffering is free! I've heard good things about Kevin DeYoung's new book on Scripture, Taking God at His Word; just $1.99.

You don't have to be overwhelmed by your needs because your Heavenly Father knows what you need and is already on site and supplying.
