Don’t Fall For It, HT to Challies. “Satan is clever. He’s happy to distract you with global disturbances while he chips away at the foundations of your devotion to Christ.”
Loving Difficult Neighbors Isn’t Optional, HT to Challies. “Imagine standing before God with this logic: ‘Yes Lord, they were made in your image and starved for gospel hope, but their dog’s barking always woke us up at 2 a.m., so we shut them out.'”

How to Lead and How to Follow. Applying the “Golden Rule” to both.
Catching Our Reflections in the Lives of Our Children, HT to The Story Warren. “What can we do when confronted with the sin of our children, sin that turns out to be ours as well? The discouragement can be crippling, preventing us from seeing any fruitful way forward. Even in the midst of this discouragement, God invites us to move forward in hope, pressing into the gospel of grace.”
Things to Do in November for Kids and Parents, HT to The Story Warren.

Happy Saturday!
I always appreciate you Laudable Linkage posts on most Saturdays. I have started following Tim Challis and was very saddened to hear of the sudden death of his son this week.
He has shared his sorry while displaying his faith and assurance of where his son is.
Thank you for introducing me to his blog.
