He Used A Stone


Andrew Mullek - 2012
    God used a stone in the hand of a boy. That God used a stone means He can use us too. If we have to be honest we are losing to life. Sure, we pretend that things are fine, but we know there is more. The lack of life in so many churches confirms this unspoken truth. To make matters worse, we are in bound by the giants that surround us. While we sing songs of victory on Sunday, Monday brings bondage.The story of David is the story of each of us. For too long church as we know it has created a structure that undermines our identity in God. We have abdicated who we are as priests of the living God and have often forfeited a victorious life. As we learn what made David different, we too will be made different. We'll become a stone in the hand of a victorious God.

Count It All Joy


Helen Roseveare - 2018
    At the end of her life, the reasons for many of her own trials have become clear and joy comes easily. But Roseveare prods herself and her reader to learn to be obedient in the midst of a trial by rejoicing in faith, even if we never understand why God has allowed us to suffer. I am glad that Roseveare left this brief final testament to God's goodness when providence appears to frown. To borrow from the writer of Hebrews: by her faith, she still speaks, even though she is dead.Betsy Childs Howard, Editor at the Gospel Coalition (from book notes)
