Our students had an amazing time at Crossings Camp in Kentucky! Pray that God will continue to work in the lives of these students, drawing them closer to faith in Him, deepening the faith of those who already trust Him, and helping them to make an impact in the world!

“New strength for new burdens, new courage for old, New faith for whatever the day may unfold;
As fresh for each need as the dew on the sod; Oh, new every morning are the mercies of God!”

“New Every Morning” by Annie Johnson Flint

And neighbor Angelica has a cat, a parrot, and a dog that nearly tackled us.

Made cookies to take around to the neighbors with Easter invitation cards. While walking around the neighborhood, I was more blessed in the giving than in the receiving:

Corporate worship is designed to stitch the gospel into your mind, stitch Jesus into your heart and place eternity before your eyes in a way that changes the way you respond to everything in your life.

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

Lord, so many of my problems stem from not remembering you. I forget your wisdom and so I worry. I forget your grace and so I get complacent. I forget your mercy and so I get resentful of others. Help me remember who you are every moment of the day. Amen.

I was told at lunch today with middle school girls that I should adopt a baby because “it’s about time you have some kids”

today I watched a grown man ride a shopping cart like he was 6 years old. what joy!

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

I’m so grateful. Oh Sweet Jesus. I am so deeply grateful for salvation, for forgiveness of sins, for 1000 do overs, for redemption of so much pain & brokenness. I am so thankful for God’s Word. I’m so thankful Jesus wasn’t put off by me or ashamed of me. I’m so thankful to serve.

Devotional reading is like chamomile tea - a soothing drink before slumber. But no one drinks chamomile tea before going to war. We need stronger drink to combat the world, the flesh, and the devil. We need battle cries as well as lullabies. We need the full counsel of Scripture.

[The Gospel Coalition @TGC]

Each of the 66 books in the Bible has a major theme that emphasizes an aspect of God’s character or a way he is working to carry out his perfect plan.

Here is an attempt to capture these themes. https://t.co/ar7XCnCeoE

@JonJonThiede Fact.

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

It's possible to study the Bible unbiblically, mining it for theological information, but ignoring its transforming power.
