Your Week of Prayer missionaries, Andrew Mark and Petra Adil, have been so encouraged by your words as they continue reaching Montreal, Quebec���where less than 1% of the population identifies as evangelical.

It is far better to be in Christ's furnace, than to be in the devil's palace.

Within this Christian vision of marriage, here's what it means to fall in love. It is to look at another person and get a glimpse of what God is creating, and to say, "I see who God is making you, and it excites me! I want to be part of that. I want to partner with you and God in the journey you are taking to his throne. And when we get there, I will look at your magnificence and say, 'I always knew you could be like this. I got glimpses of it on earth, but now look at you!

Finally, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may speed ahead and be honored, as happened among you…

Go back Frodo thought, no good at all. Go sideways, impossible. Go forward, only thing to do. On we go. So he got up and trotted with his little sword held in front of him with one hand feeling the wall and his heart all of a patter a pitter he went forward — Tolkien, The Hobbit

The greatest sorrow and burden you can lay on the Father, the greatest unkindness you can do to Him is not to believe that He loves you. — John Owen, Communion With God

[Jeff Wiesner @JeffreyPWiesner]

If you want to strengthen a church’s doctrinal fidelity, prioritize well-trained elders doing most the formal teaching.

If you want to strengthen a church’s unity, prioritize church-wide gatherings over small group ministry.

[Gunner Gundersen @GunnerGundersen]

A simple way to bless the world: Be the guy who does the thing. Marital tension? Be the one who initiates reconciliation. A friend saying, "We should do lunch”? Be the one who schedules it. A timid prayer group? Be the one who shares or prays first. Be the guy who does the thing.

"Christ is all things to Christians.
He is bread to feed them,
a fountain to refresh them,
a physician to heal them,
a rock to shelter them,
a light to guide them,
and a crown to crown them."

-Thomas Brooks,Works (@banneroftruth), 2: 334, fn. #4.

And after some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us return and visit the brothers in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are.” (Acts 15:36)

This concern from Sinclair Ferguson about the danger of Christo-monism and its possible connection to the contemporary enthusiasm over preaching Christ from the Old Testament is worth contemplating, especially given Ferguson’s pastoral experience and theological pedigree.

[Matt Damico @mattpdamico]

"See that you join with the congregation as frequently as you can. Let not a slight degree of weakness or weariness hinder you. If it is a cross to you, take it up, and you will find it a blessing."
