90 Minutes....

This is an amazing story. It became personal to me when I read where they put the Ilizarov apparatus on his leg. I cried when he told of all the pain and despair he experienced because of it - because they so closely mirrored what I went through with all the halos and pins. But he had to endure so much more than what I did, and he prevailed triumphantly for God's glory. This is a truly inspiring book.

It's Not All Greek....

Have you always wondered what the Greek translation of the New Testament say - but don't understand Greek? Kenneth Wuest's New Testament in the Expanded Greek Translation may be what you are looking for. He uses as many English words as needed to convey the original Greek meaning. Even if you use the very literal NASB translation, like I do, this translation can provide clarity and insight into the New Testament.

Got Bored Kids?

When your kids come to you this summer and complain about being bored - try offering "board" games. Board games, like the one shown, can provide hours of family entertainment and can help keep the summer "doldrums" at bay.

My favorite devotional ever is Oswald Chambers' "My Utmost For His Highness". It is a classic and one of the best ever among devotionals. It will make you thoroughly and honestly evaluate your heart, and will help refine you by separating the gold from the dross.

Matthew 28:19 ``Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 28:20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."   NASB

The NASB

Looking for a literal and accurate translation of the Bible? The NASB is just that.  To get anymore literal you would have to go to an interlinear Bible, or learn Hebrew and Greek. There is something poetic about the NASB, that less literal translations like the NIV lack. Don't get me wrong - there is nothing wrong with the NIV - it is a very accurate and straight forward translation. But for someone like me who grew up with the KJV - the NASB offers not only accuracy - but also the word for word translation with a poetic touch. My personal favorite at the moment is the MacArthur NASB Study Bible, which can be found at the link below.

Christian Resources

Sometimes in life we need extra help dealing with problems that come along with living in this worldly realm.  It might be not being able to get to a church to attend service due to lack of transportation, or perhaps illness. It might be wanting Christian based health insurance in a rapidly changing world. Or it might be that there is a situation in your life, or the life of someone you love, that requires counseling. There are many online resources available to you. Check out the Christian Resource page at  www.christianjourneybookstore.com/index.php?module=content&content_id=5488
