And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
What I’m reading on Friday the 13th (oooo)
Charity: Elon Musk volunteers to fix people’s water in Flint, Michigan.
Missions: Protests in Haiti strand American short-term missionaries.
“charity” gambling: An example of Chase the Ace for the benefit of a local fire department isn’t promoting much charity in a family.
Interpretation: So, how does one interpret scripture?
Technerdiness: Apparently some people have turned to body modification to keep apple airpods in their ears.
Grieving: Remember that Christmas can actually be a harder time for some. Desiring God gives some thoughts as we pray for friends and family that may be grieving in a time of great joy.
Politics: Some think the religious right is monolithic. Even in a year that saw evangelicals overwhelmingly rally around a candidate, get religion points to a story of deep division among evangelicals over president Donald Trump.
Charity: As we think about giving this Christmas season, remember that loving our fellows can mean thinking about needs that don’t necessarily tug at our heart strings as much, CBC reports.
