[Jesus said,]”My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.14 You are my friends if you do what I command.15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I…
Great blog post this morning from Greg May (author, teacher, and fisherman), entitled Useless Bible Knowledge?. He tells of a conversation with someone who was interested in coming to a Men’s Bible Study that he does until the fellow found out that their discussions were about the application in their lives of what they learned…

For many years, I followed in the footsteps of women before me and worked and cooked and stressed myself out on every…
