28 Jan Worth the Read – January 28, 2017

Thank you for praying for me this week as I traveled out and back to Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary for a presentation for one of my Ph.D. classes. As always, it was a delight to be with my professors, Drs. Allen, McCarty, McKellar, Walker & Charette. I loved getting to sit in the President’s Box for chapel and watch how well Dr. Patterson leads and loves the students. On the way back I was able to put together this week’s reading list. It’s an interesting one for sure. You’ll find here some denominational posts as well as some very useful posts on the opportunities and challenges of ministry and how to be more effective and efficient in your work. You’ll quickly notice that not every one of these posts comes from a Christian world-view, but it’s always helpful to learn as much as you can so that you can be a better witness for Jesus. Enjoy!
