I've had this Bible for several months. I've been using it in my personal devotion time to get a feel for it and see what I think about it. Now, I'm ready to give you my full review. I have the hardcover version, but it also comes in a hardcover thumb-indexed version, an eBook version, …
ESV Family Devotional Bible Review
The last few months, I have been using this Family Devotional Bible from Crossway. I wanted to use it for a little while before I gave my review of it. So, I've been pulling it out during family devotion time. I have the hardcover edition, but it is also available in blue or brown imitation …
Lent 2018
If you're looking for my annual Lent family devotions, they are in book form this year! I was coming up with a way to make the family devotional more user-friendly. Scrolling through an entire week of blog posts is a bit messy. It is free, but it is messy. Then, I had this idea to …
ESV Illuminated Bible Review

How Else Will They Know?
My brother and I used to do these goofy plays. Don't think Shakespeare in the living room. This was more like SNL. Anyway, the big ending to one of our plays was, "Somebody must tell them!" said very dramatically to the audience with great pause. (Then my brother would say, "The Meme!" which we thought …
Fundraising, Charity, and The Church
I'm writing this blog post for the Church. Not just my church, but the Church. This isn't for those outside the Church. Just the Church. I'm also writing this as a Protestant. And I'm writing this as someone knows the inner working of churches. That makes it a little more awkward. And I'll tell you, …
Half The Church Book Review
My review for you is different than what I posted on Amazon. Mostly because this book brought up plenty of personal issues that wouldn't be appropriate for a book review on their site. Also, in the interest of full disclosure, Amazon gave me this book to review. However, they do not require me to write …
