We hear more about angels during Christmas, but they’re around all year. I wrote a short post about one way God uses angels to encourage believers, especially during times of persecution.
The sermon is an important part of worship. Here’s how to make the most of it.
Learn about the @OrthodoxPC work in Mbale, Uganda. See how long-term committments make a difference. Faith and patience: it takes time for seeds to grow. Watch on Vimeo.
Tomorrow I will finish preaching the Gospel of John and will be sad to say goodbye to Frederick Dale Bruner, who, via his 1,200+ pg commentary, has been my main (non-divine) conversation partner on John for the last two years. Huge impact. Thank you, Dr. Bruner.
Finished The Art of Neighboring by @jayrpathak and Dave Runyon. Great into. Deals with common struggles, helps avoid missteps, and is full of good advice you can use today.
When Jesus comes “God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes” (Revelation 21:4), but until then there is heartbreak even on the holidays. My heart goes out those who sat next to empty seats this Thanksgiving.
Learn about New Horizons, the OPC’s monthly magazine. Watch on vimeo.
Thanks to Christ Reformed Church in Washington, D.C., we now have a collection of links to most of the tunes used in Trinity Psalter Hymnal. You can use these to sing along. And if you can’t read music, these will help you learn the tunes.
Congratulations and thanks to David C. Noe for his new book, God or Baal: Two Letters on the Reformation of Worship and Pastoral Service.
