Christian Devotional-Stories and Bible verses about the presence of God in our lives

4 to Read-September 1

Each week, Everyday Servant lists four really great posts to read from Christian blogs…

In this week’s 4-to read…4 to read

Tim Challies shares thoughts about grace and self-control…

Thom Rainer asks who’s to blame if your church isn’t growing through evangelism…

A blogger-mom shares her wishes for her growing daughter…

And for a little humor…another blogger asks what Moses might have brought down the mountain if he had been a blogger…Might he have included 10 commandments for bloggers?

Here are this week’s 4 to Read: 

1. Is your church growing though evangelism?

Are more seats filled every week with new faces?

Or does your church have that “empty” look?

Who’s to blame if the pews aren’t full?

The Pastors and the professional staff?

The congregation?

The Lay leaders?

Read Thom Rainer’s perspective and his 5 reasons a church may not grow through evangelism…

2. Self-Control…Does grace mean we can abandon self-control?

Or does it give us new opportunities to exercise self-control for God’s glory?

Tim Challies offers his thoughts…

3. Ever sent a child off to kindergarten, or high school or college?

Ever walked a daughter down the aisle or watched a son standing at the altar waiting for his bride?

If you’ve ever done any of those things, you’ll identify with this blogger-mom’s hopes for her daughter…

4. How about a little humor?

Did you know that when Moses came down from the mountain with those tablets (Wonder if they were IOS or Android?), he also carried a couple of “chips”   that may have held the 10 commandments of blogging…

If you blog, you will want to read them now….

There is so much Christian material to read online…

No list could possibly be complete…

Have you read something that you’d like to share with everyone?

Add your own choices… perhaps something you’ve written…in comments…
