10 Dec Worth the Read – December 10, 2016

It’s the end of my first semester as a student again. I haven’t had as much time as normal for online reading, even though there was a lot of breaking and important news this week. I’m excited to share my friend and mentor, Steve Gaines’, vision for the 2017 SBC Annual Meeting. Also, a post on the faith of America’s first astronaut, John Glenn, who died this week. The rest of this week’s posts address various issues of preaching, leading and living for Jesus in this world we are passing through. I hope you enjoy and are edified by this week’s list.
