1. How much of your life planning involves the church? -- Jonathan Leeman, editorial director of 9Marks, writes about the importance and benefit of considering the local church in making decisions. His article runs counter to the often individualistic bent of evangelicalism in this country.
2. Sing like you mean it -- A man remembers his father's example for his son of singing fervently the hymns of the faith and encourages other fathers to do the same. Good point, and I would add: Every believer should sing like he or she means it.
3. College students are keeping the faith -- Joe Carter of The Gospel Coalition writes about an analysis that contradicts what seems to be the conventional wisdom of many evangelicals and fundamentalists in this country. It appears college students are not losing their faith.
4. Tell me the story one more time -- Here is a touching story from Michael Wittmer's The Last Enemy regarding an elderly believer who wanted to hear the story of Jesus one more time before she saw Him. (Via: Tim Challies)
