Request for Prayer

I won't go into all the boring details, but I wanted to ask anyone who checks into this blog to please pray for me as I write. I feel my desperate need for God's sustaining grace.

The chapter I'm working on now I thought would be easy. In some ways it's turning out to be one of the most difficult because it's purpose to define not only what makes a church a church, but what matters in a church. It's so important to be biblically precise. I'm very aware of the potential to offend. I need wisdom and insight from God.

I also need physical strength. For some reason the migraines are kicking in this week.

All that said, I know that my redeemer lives! I know that he will be faithful.

Here’s a round-up of positive, negative, and sometimes bizarre commentary from across the blogosphere about my books. It goes without saying, but I can’t necessarily endorse the content of any of the sites quoted below.

Church?
"I am reading Joshua Harris book Stop Dating the Church...love it. He talks about the people who believe they can be Christians and never go to church. I have heard this argument many times. They don't believe you have to fellowship..." (Read full post here.)
Jargon Meets Advice
"Boy Meets Girl: I read part of this back when I bought it 7-ish years ago. If you get past the jargon-y parts it has some solid advice." (Read full post here.)
A Brief Review
"I think this book [Sex is Not the Problem (Lust Is)] would appeal to both teenagers and parents, although I would give the parents the book first to read. This is not explicit in its language but it does tackle the difficult questions." (Read full post here.)
