Bobspotted Blogroll: August 25, 2007

Before we jump in to the blog posts I’ve been spotting lately, let me remind you of Bob’s Blog Finds. In my sidebar you’ll notice that I show the last 10 posts I’ve shared from my blog reading. The posts I share there don’t always make it to these blogroll posts, but they are worth a read. You can subscribe to my blog finds, or view them all in one static webpage. Then again, you can just wait for my sporadic blogroll posts!

Oh, one more thing. We still need 5 more guys for a fantasy football league. The league is open to anyone who reads and enjoys this blog. So please, join us for some football!

PERSEVERANCE, WARNINGS & THE GOSPEL

  • The Cross and Obedience. Tony Reinke of The Shepherd’s Scrapbook writes on how the grace and obedience work together in daily life. Excellent.
  • Essential reading on the warning passages from Expository Thoughts. Seriously this really explains why God would bother with the serious warning passages in Scripture, even though the elect are eternally secure. This is especially good in light of our man-centered Christianity series, where my next post will center on perseverance.
  • Speaking of that series, you may be interested in two excellent posts on the relationship between the Gospel and the Kingdom (part 1 & part 2). The following posts by Nahtan Mihelis are thought provoking and reveal how shallow our understanding of the gospel really is in today’s culture.
  • Living the gospel with your family always is difficult, but Tony at The Shepherd’s Scrapbook points out an excellent post on encouraging your kids. Its good reading.

MOTHER TERESA

“This book will reveal that there is a deep Christian spirituality that includes doubt and darkness and unbelief. There were times when Mother Teresa was tormented. But it doesn’t have to be that way. We can come to terms with the belief and unbelief that coexists in our lives and know that we are not alone. Our prayer is simple: Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief.”
