I received The Pastor's Bible from Crossway in order to review it. I thrust it upon The Pastor after I had a chance to use it a bit and asked his opinion, as well. So this is our review, not just my review. I received the cloth over board cover. Though it also comes in …
The Apologetics Study Bible Review
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, …
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 …
Word Before World
I'm scrolling through Instagram when I wake up this morning and come across a hashtag that gets my mind rolling. #wordbeforeworld . Now, this isn't the first time I had seen the hashtag. I have seen @wellwateredwomen posting it for several days now. But it was the first time I stopped and took note. What …

However, that is likely a good thing. As the article in question suggested some very, well, in my opinion, terrible advice. But this is something that …
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.

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 …
