Things to think about this weekend

Want to know about missional church leadership without having to buy a bunch of books? Check out J. R. Woodward's "Primer on Today's Missional Church." This is a truly outstanding compilation of some of the best links available. If you're a church leader, you might want to add this link to your favorites. Great stuff.

At CVC, we've been in a series on family called "Clean House." Both Gary Nave (It's still us) and I (It's us) have talked from Ephesians 5:21-33 about what the Bible says about different roles for husbands and wives within marriage. At Scotsdale Bible Church in Arizona, one of my favorite theologians, Wayne Grudem, has delivered a great message God's Wisdom for Wives. Check it out.

Are you really ready to face Christ on "The Day"? Matthew Henry said, "It ought to be the business of every day to prepare for that day." One person who I think is ready is Billy Graham. The Plain Dealer had a nice article today entitled "In daily grief, prayer, Billy Graham approaches 90." And John Piper also writes about Billy Graham in a tribute. Read these articles. And they will inspire you to be as ready as I John 2:28 encourages us to be ready.
