Friday Links Roundup: A LOT of Speaking Edition
Well, I’m on the road again. Lord willing, after this weekend, I will be finished with speaking engagements for 2008. But, until these next few days are over, I’ll be busy!
Tonight and tomorrow, I’ll be speaking at the Sonshine Youth Rally in Evansville, Indiana. The Washington Avenue church of Christ hosts this rally each year, and they do a tremendous job with it! It’ll be great to see my friend Alan Bush, who serves as the associate minister there. The theme for this year is “Standard,” and the young people have asked me address topics that deal with our changing standards in the world, but our unchanging standard in God’s Word.
After that rally, I’ll hit the road and head back to Northwest Alabama. Sunday through Wednesday, I’ll be speaking for the Double Springs church of Christ in a Gospel Meeting. They invited me a couple of years ago to come for this meeting to conduct a series entitled “More Like Jesus.” Here is the list of topics:
Sunday 9:30AM: More Like Jesus in Humility
10:30 AM: More Like Jesus in Prayer
7:30 PM: More Like Jesus in Compassion
Monday 7PM: More Like Jesus as a Youth
Tuesday 7PM: More Like Jesus When I’m Tempted
Wednesday 7PM: More Like Jesus When I Die
It’ll be great to see so many folks from Haleyville and other nearby places as we hold that meeting. We’re looking forward to it, but we know it’ll be tiring.
On to the links for this week:
1. David Courington writes a wonderful poem entitled “The Old Book Case.”
2. Children can be overprotected by laws and others. Dale Sadler writes an interesting article on this that parents and other concerned adults will find thought-provoking.
3. How does pornography hurt and even ruin a marriage? Read this note sent to Trey Morgan, and it’ll make you think again before surfing the net.
4. Jim Martin gives a simple but practical list to “stay alive” as you serve the Lord and are busy doing His business.
If you are near Evansville or Double Springs, we hope to see you over the next few days. It’s going to be a wonderful time!
Don’t forget the Lord on His day no matter where you find yourself.
