What are your reading right now?




One of the most commonly asked questions is "what's God's will for my life"?  The question sounds innocent enough, but do you really want to know the answer from a Biblical perspective?  Currently, I'm reading a book by a friend and Pastor David Platt.  Now, this isn't an easy read! However, it's important for us to truly consider making our lives count.  

 Here's a description from  Radical.net
While trekking in the Himalayas, David Platt was shaken by the extent of human need he witnessed first-hand. In his new book Something Needs to Change, he addresses the extreme spiritual and physical need that he saw and the questions that he wrestled with along the way. Journey with him through some of the most remote and spiritually dark places in the world and allow yourself to come face to face with what it means to live out what we say we believe.

Adoption T-Shirts are now available

This process has been hard in so many ways, but NOW we can see the light and know our gift from God is months away. Thank you for joining us in this journey to bring Emmanuel home.   The deepest and strongest foundation of adoption is located not in the act of humans adopting humans, but in God adopting humans. And this act is not part of his ordinary providence

Expecting

We are expecting! The journey continues...I am fasciated how God works through his people. I am so far of where I want to be spiritually, but yet he continues to use us. Over the past year, the Lord has challenged and even confronted me with his word. The question I have been wrestling with is... do I believe it...do I believe all of it? In short, I do! I believe every single word, period, adjective, noun...to be the inspired word of God. I often hear things like man wrote it or what about dinosaurs, or this or that....Have you read it? I am convinced you will never be person God wants you to be until you believe in the power of his word. Of course man wrote it... God has always also used men as his vessel. How would you expect him to write it? It truly humbles me that he would inspire men to speak through him then as he is now. In fact, the creator writes messages to us all the time in the rainbows, clouds, rain and sunny skies. The other interesting thing is those questions how
