Happy Mother’s Day!
Maybe I’m cynical (yah think!), but it seems to me that Mother’s Day is the most guilt-ridden day of the year for mothers and for adult children.
Need a last minute gift idea for your mom?
Better than a new frying pan…

You probably wouldn’t believe me if I told you that I woke up to 4 inches of snow again yesterday. At least we weren’t snowed in this time.
A few links from this week…
Interesting post by Len about professional ministry
Great conversation on the topic of immodesty
Glenn shared Richard White’s dreams about community
Robbymac discusses the multi-faceted nature of the kingdom
Susan on “moving into the neighborhood”:
“Thought Experiment: what if more Christians moved in to the neighborhoods they currently are “writing checks” to, and when it came to “drive in” ministry they dressed up and drove out to the suburbs to mingle with wealthy unbelievers and share the Gospel with them?”
These two articles are on slow simmer in the crockpot of my brain:
- Why We Live in Community by Christine Sine (ht BrMaynard)
- The Journey Inward, Outward, and Forward about Gordon Cosby (ht Len)
Abmo started a meme this week about what a city taken for God might look like. I wanted to participate but didn’t get it done. However, I have a section of related books in my library that I would sell to the highest bidder.
- Taking Our Cities For God - John Dawson
- Primary Purpose - Ted Haggard
- Informed Intercession - George Otis
- Possessing the Gates - Cindy Jacobs
- Breaking Strongholds in Your City - Peter Wagner
- Commitment to Conquer - Bob Beckett
Let me know if you are interested.
Speaking of books, I thought of Brother Maynard when I picked up a book by Eugene Peterson and a book by Henry Nouwen for 10 cents each this week.
A final Mother’s Day moment…
