I don’t mean to toot my own horn or call my own link laudable, but I thought some of you might be interested in seeing my latest newspaper column: Missionaries can be a force for good. My original title was “Tolerance, Evangelism, and Missions.” I only have one more column left — and too many ideas for it! In some ways it will be a relief not to have to meet this deadline every six weeks, but in a greater sense I will miss it. But I can reapply after a year. (If you are interested, my other columns are here.)
Here are some interesting online reads discovered in the last week or so:
The Redistribution of Wealth is a topic that comes up often in election years, but is it a Biblical idea? No, but the Bible does have much to say to those with any kind of wealth.
Making Friends With Imperfect People. There is no other kind….but this could be more aptly titled “Making Friends in Imperfect Situations.”
Here I Am, or There You Are? Makes all the difference in the world.
15+ Free Printable Grocery Lists from Tipnut, who always has a great wealth of good information.
I have never cooked salmon, but nikkipolani’s Slow Cooked Salmon sounds really good.
Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2012. “The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.” Psalm 19:1.
Author Sarah Sundin is having Facebook party and giveaway of her novel With Every Letter (linked to my review).
I had not heard, that I remember, that they were making a movie titled “Lincoln,” but it looks good.
Hope you have a great Saturday!
I loved the “Here I am or There you are” article. The difference is thinking of others first. It really IS liberating! :o)
I also enjoyed your article on tolerance and missionaries helping the people. We have really seen that here, as well, in a more “civilized” area of the world (Europe). Those who are believers tend to get better education than their parents, have better jobs, more stable homes, etc. Jesus is the difference!
Loved the nature photos! Every time I see photographs like these, I am more in awe of the Creator.
Your articles are always quite laudable! This one is no exception. You’ve been a great witness through your writings and I have enjoyed reading them all.
