Passion Points

Here are some good posts for your weekend reading:

The Parable of the City Dog and the Country Dog – Trevin Wax.  You’ll just have to read it to find out the meaning of the parable.  May we become more like the Country Dog!

Prayers of confession can be hard for many reasons.  Not least is finding words.  Lancelot Andrews gives us words in his prayer of confession and hope.

October is Pastor Appreciation Month.  I am always amazed at the stuff Christian retail comes up with for people to give to their pastors.  Brad Whitt suggests ten things to give your pastor to show your appreciation that he will really appreciate.  As a pastor, I would heartedly agree.

Finally, R. C. Ryle gives us four thoughts on true worship.  It is much more than singing hymns and choruses on Sunday morning.

Hope you have a great Lord’s Day with your local church family.
