24: Live Another Day Coming In Summer 2014 →
parislemon:
I was a huge fan of 24 back in the day. The first season was the first television show I “binge watched” on DVD while in college. I think I watched all 24 episodes in four days…
So I’m glad it’s coming back. And I’m actually happy that it’s not going to be a feature-length film. 24’s hook was the real-time aspect played over a long season. I would worry that a 24 movie would be just...

A Mother's Prayer - Keith & Kristyn Getty
Reflections on A Mother’s Prayer
by Kristyn Getty
In the spring of 2008 I first prayed for a baby, and in the spring of 2011 God answered that prayer with the birth of our beautiful daughter. My joy was full but so were the fears I wrestled. In some ways I felt like a baby Christian again, caught in a whirlwind of emotions, learning and applying what I have known and trusted into a completely...

“Holiness is the habit of being of one mind with God, according as we find His mind described in Scripture. It is the habit of agreeing in God’s judgment–hating what He hates–loving what He loves–and measuring everything in this world by the standard of His Word. He who most entirely agrees with God, he is the most holy man.”
- J.C. Ryle, Holiness – Read on Path.

Book Review: Gospel-Centered Discipleship by...
Jonathan Dodson has written an extremely practical handbook on Christian discipleship.
“Gospel-Centered Discipleship” is a book that is based on many years of reflection on a ministry of personal discipling relationships. It is most surely a “how-to” book on discipleship, and yet it is not your typical “do it this way” book on the important matter. It is at...

A necessary distinction: evangelistic vs....
Sometimes in Christian circles, especially within evangelicalism—there is sometimes an incorrect use of the terms “evangelical” and “evangelistic”.
In short, sometimes our church members or leaders may use the terms synonymously, but such terms are not synonymous though closely related.
Without going into too much theological detail, let me explain:
Evangelical:

The greatest need in our church
The greatest need in our church is not more entertaining or relevant programs. The greatest need is not even a more caring community or uplifting worship services. While these things are important for a church and its members, it is not the greatest need.
The greatest need is regeneration—the new birth of people, to be born again, to be finally alive.
To be sure, it is most discouraging...
Sam Mendes Won't Direct Bond 24 →
parislemon:
Mendes spoke to Empire:
It has been a very difficult decision not to accept Michael and Barbara’s very generous offer to direct the next Bond movie. Directing Skyfall was one of the best experiences of my professional life, but I have theatre and other commitments, including productions of Charlie And The Chocolate Factory and King Lear, that need my complete focus over the next...

I have a “list” on my Facebook that is completely useless.
Why?
Because nobody in that list posts any updates about their life. Not even the really important updates.
Which basically renders Facebook useless, even for my generation.
I understand that some people are more private than others. Certainly, I am more private with my “online” life now than 10years ago....

We are a grateful people: God has given us the death of death in the death of Christ. We all await the joy of seeing God face to face; and some believers have this privilege sooner than others.
Yet parting is such a sad but sweet sorrow.

Book Review: Gospel Deeps by Jared C. Wilson
Ever so often, there comes a book that forces you to think deeply about something that you may have taken for granted, something that you’ve grown accustomed to and maybe thus come to assume.
Gospel Deeps: Reveling in the Excellencies of Jesus by Jared C. Wilson is one of those books.
It prods you to take a deeper look at the gospel of Jesus Christ; to stare and be mesmerized by the...
