"Dark Was the Night" compilation album

This looks like a really great album by a really great, all-star cast. It was created to benefit the Red Hot Organization, which raises money and awareness for HIV & AIDS through pop culture. I love many of these artists, and some of them I don’t know. Looking forward to hearing it. Check out the their myspace page.

New Delirious CD/DVD Trailer

Looking forward to this. Though none of their current music is quite as special as the early days, there’s no doubting the worldwide influence of this band.

Young Adult Study Week 3 – "The Plot Thickens"

How should I respond when I face opposition?

Maintain Confidence in God (Nehemiah 2:19-20) – “Being nine feet tall is nothing if you aren’t a child of God.”
Ask God for Help (Nehemiah 4:1-6) – “Pray boldly. Pray often. Pray privately. Pray publicly. As you pray, know that God wants his mission to succeed in you more than you do.”
Take Reasonable Precautions (Nehemiah 4:7-14) – “When facing opposition, do everything you can to protect both yourself and the mission God has entrusted to you.”

The Offense of the Gospel

“The gospel, by telling us Jesus died for us, is also really insulting. It tells us that we are so wicked that only the death of the Son of God could save us. This offends the modern cult of self-expression and the popular belief in the innate goodness of humanity.”

– Timothy Keller, The Message of Romans (Redeemer Presbyterian Church, 2003), 2.
