1. Interesting and Useful Links I found this week:
-- Order of Books -- Lists all the books in a series in
order to make sure you read them as the author wrote them.
-- Manly.Is -- Manliness is in, and the web is now full of sites dedicated
to manliness and masculinity as men seek to live out true lives of meaning,
some good and some not so good. One of
the earliest in this niche was Art of Manliness, still my go-to site. However, I just discovered Manly.Is, which is
a welcome addition since it approaches masculinity from a Christian biblical
perspective.
-- KIVA -- Another site I stumbled upon, but haven’t investigated fully,
is KIVA. This site allows you to
participate in microloans to individuals across the world to help their lives
change for the better. You make loans in
the $25 range and the site takes care of the administrative work. With repayments reaching 98%, this is
working, and certainly a lot better at building character and self-esteem than
those sites that give without demanding anything in return (i.e. cheap grace).
2. This week's Bible verse: 1 Peter 2:9 (NIV) “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.”
3. Prayer Focus: Thanking God for the many blessings
He has given.
4. What I’m Reading:
5. Interesting
Article:
-- “Seven Things I Did to Reboot My Life” by Will Wheaton: You can always start over and make a difference in your life. Not written from a religious standpoint, but the application can surely be made. God allows U-turns.
