Lisa and I discuss the grace in the life of Miriam. I consider the Iran War, Just War Theory and the limits of the Commander-in-Chief. Plus, the flying toys of the 1970s and how Spurgeon was a model of Calvinist fidelity.

Lisa and I speak about our church, Sovereign Grace Fellowship, and our plans for the future. I consider the state of the church in our day, and seek out ministry partners. Finally, how to better see Christ in His bride.

Lisa and I discuss the faith and courage of Moses' mothers. I consider how tariff threats have brought down tariffs, explore the life and minisry of Ezekiel and cover how the hunger for power animates fights among believers.

I give thanks for the manifold blessings of my wife. I consider the need for peace in the face of cultural uncertainty, explore Jesus' teaching on why His disciples did not fast and explain the glory and beaut of the communion of the saints.

Lisa and I discuss Rachel and Leah, drawing insight from our new mom sister ewes. Then, Iran, just war, and "national interests." In That 70s Kid we remember foods we ate then but rarely eat now. Finally, the folly of Israel's failure to finish the job in the Promised Land.

Lisa and I discuss the faith and faithfulness of Rebekah. I give thanks for our latest farm blessings, new born lambs, Lola and Lollipop. I explore the message of Ezekiel and then consider why the doctrine of creation is important, but error on it isn't heresy.

Lisa and I consider the faith of Sarah in her challenging life. I remember the role I played in the greatest play in the history of the NFL. In Good News we look at Matthew's calling as a disciple, and Jesus eating with sinners. Finally, we consider the blessings of revival and the dangers of revivalism.

Lisa and I consider the faith of Noah's wife in the face of a life of challenges. I remind us that our fathers had blind spots, as do we, that rejecting racism isn't worldliness but fidelity to God's Word. I consider various projects for the year and explore the Spirit as the giver of life, and new life.

Lisa and I begin a new series on women in the Bible, considering this week Eve. I apply the folly of consequentialist ethics to just war theory and Venezuela, provide an overview of Jeremiah and remember that Jesus fully died.

Once again we present a short story highlighting the meaning of the gifts we receive each Christmas.
