The Gospel Project and the ESV Bible

Last year, I had the opportunity to contribute to the formation of The Gospel Project with my friend Halim Suh.  The Gospel Project is an integrated, flexible curriculum that presents a comprehensive gospel-centered theology for churches.  They asked me to share the following, and I’m happy to do so:

Matt Carter Catches a Bird Barehanded

This post is on the lighthearted, non-missional side.  My friend and pastor Matt Carter was filming for his book The Real Win, and happened upon a bird…check out what happened:

I also appreciate a good mashup…someone else did great work incorporating Bambi:

Enjoy 🙂

I thought the image below from the Mint.com blog was fascinating.  It’s long, but worth a look.

Sunday is for Questions

I was hoping to have some time to write down some thoughts today, but between morning services with the family and preparation for an evening class, I’m tapped out.  I figured a good quick post would be to ask for some dialog from you, my faithful readers:

  1. What questions would you like me to address in some upcoming posts?
  2. What have you found beneficial thus far about the different topics I have written on?

Drop me a comment and let me know…it will help me think through where to go in the next couple weeks!

P.S. If you looking at this in a reader, pop over to the actual website for a new look…
