“And pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel” (Ephesians 6:19, NASB).

There was work to be done. After all, when Jesus came, the twelve came with Him. The house needed to be swept. Food would have to be prepared and the table set. Twenty-six extra feet would require washing. Bedding, too, must be arranged, as traveling dinner guests always spend the night. If I don’t do it, she may have thought, it won’t get done.

It’s been fascinating to watch the very vocal and prolific new atheists, such as Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett and Richard Dawkins, make a case for objective morality.

This is wedding season and I'm sure a lot of you will be going to weddings over the next few months. If you're married, be sure to use this opportunity to think in terms of cultivating and preserving your marriage.

"This book should be the desktop reference for every pastor, politician, and layman who needs the best researched answer for any question pertaining to the prolife issue. There's nothing better out there." - Gayle Atteberry, Executive Director, Oregon Right to Life 

Money, Possessions & Eternity is a book destined to impact generations. It is a classic study of what God wants us to know about handling money with eternity in mind. I heartily recommend it. –Howard Dayton, CEO, Crown Financial Ministries

Tony Reinke, a young evangelical thinker who I know and deeply appreciate, has written what I think is an excellent piece on homosexuality, idolatry and happiness.

I have lamented before about the large number of young men who are not readers, and who therefore are not readers of God's Word. 

Question from a reader: Some of your books have endorsements, but many don’t. Why is that? Also, I’ve heard that some writers endorse books without reading them. Is this true? And are some endorsements by well-known people actually written by someone else?

I really appreciate the two main components of what’s on your heart—grace and truth. Jesus is full of not one or the other, but both. I commend you for this.

Some years ago Steve Saint and I became friends. He came to our church within a week of the 50^th anniversary of the death of those missionaries, and I interviewed him and Mincaye, the former warrior who was one of the murderers of the missionaries, but who later came to faith in Christ. 

In The Great Divorce, Lewis sees everything in heaven (grass, rocks, trees, water, etc.) as “much solider than things in our country.” It’s all heavy and hard, like diamonds—the character can’t pluck a flower or pick up a leaf.

1 John 2:15-16 reads, “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh [the sin nature] and the desires of the eyes [which relates to the warped perspective we sometimes have] and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world.” 

God tells us that suffering isn’t pointless. We are to rejoice in our sufferings because of the outcomes they will produce: perseverance, character, hope, and the certain expectation that God will make all things right and work all things for our good and his glory.
