1. Acts 29 is staging a cool conference in St. Louis in a few weeks.\u00a0 Looks very interesting.<\/a><\/p>\n

2. Tim Keller speaking at Google<\/a>.\u00a0 Glad to see Keller getting such a powerful evangelistic opportunity.<\/p>\n

3. Mark Driscoll\u2019s new book, Death By Love<\/em>, looks moving.\u00a0 The graphics are, anyway.\u00a0 Check out the website.<\/a> Driscoll uses a real-life story of transformation to highlight an aspect of Christology.\u00a0 Here\u2019s a paragraph from the news release on the book: \u201cDriscoll, one of America\u2019s most influential pastors, and Breshears, a respected theologian, explain that Christ\u2019s death has real-life implications for AIDS, demonic oppression, adultery, divorce, molestation, and suicidal ideation\u2014for every manner of sin committed by or against a person. Each chapter includes a brief description of the life story of the person to whom most of the chapter is written, a letter to the person explaining one aspect of the cross and how it applies to him or her, answers to common questions about issues raised in the chapter, and discussion questions.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

4. Did you see the new site devoted to a speaking event with John Piper and D. A. Carson?<\/a> If not, you should check it out.<\/p>\n

5. Andy Naselli highlights one of the 100+ videos from the Gospel Coalition resources.\u00a0 This one features my pastor, Mike Bullmore, on natural disasters.<\/a><\/p>\n

6. In the New York Times, a middle-aged woman ruminates about the significance of her life.<\/a> Some thoughtful parts.\u00a0 Life is fleeting, and people come to realize that, whether they are saved or not.\u00a0 It\u2019s interesting that this realization leads most often to sadness.\u00a0 The human heart can sense danger, it seems.<\/p>\n

\u2013Have a fun and spiritually nourishing weekend, all.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
