As well as reading a lot of books, I also read a ton of articles every week. Here are some of the articles that I’ve read recently and have found interesting, helpful, challenging and encouraging. I hope that they will be the same for you, my dear readers…

Pastors, platforms and pedestals
“Pastor and churches, beware of platforms and pedestals. They only create more room for a person to fall from. If recognition does come your way, make sure that you’ve got people around you to keep you accountable, humble and faithful. Your job is to care for the flock, not to use them as a springboard to some idea of fame.”

I pray that as we’re able to gather once again, every member will return. Remote, virtual, disembodied fellowship simply isn’t enough. We’ve made do with it. But hopefully it has caused us to value all the more the close, real, embodied gathering that anticipates how we will spend eternity—together in the presence of our Lord.”

Here are some ways the Bible can guide our prayers.”

Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8). The enemy is not to be taken lightly. He desires to devour you.”
