Growing Your Appetite for the Lord's Supper
Many Christians have an uneasy relationship with the Lord’s Supper. Though this gospel feast has been central to Christian worship since the beginning of the church, many believers find the Lord’s Supper either confusing, intimidating, or just plain boring.

John Calvin on Christ in All of Scripture
Sacrifice of Isaac - Rembrandt (1635)
John Calvin, writing in the preface to Pierre-Robert Olivétan’s 1535 translation of the New Testament.
He [Christ] is Isaac, the beloved Son of the Father who was offered as a sacrifice, but nevertheless did not succumb to the power of death.
He is Jacob the watchful shepherd, who has such

Letter to a Wannabe Pastor's Wife
A couple of years ago Holly (my spouse) was invited to write a letter to a "wannabe pastor's wife," to be posted on the True Woman blog. I think her perspective and advice is really good and worth reposting.
Holly and our youngest child, Abby Taylor
Even if you're not a pastor's wife, it might give you a different perspective on what is often called "the hardest job in the church." If

The Difficulty of Waiting on God
This is my latest article for www.Christianity.com
Waiting on the Lord can be hard for two reasons. Bad theology, the first reason, is what I wrote about previously here at Christianity.com. The second reason has nothing to do with bad theology though. In fact, you can have very solid and robust beliefs about God, man, sin, etc. and yet still find it tough to wait. That’s because

Why is Waiting on God So Hard?
Most of us don’t like waiting.
We are annoyed with lengthy checkout lines at the store, frustrated by long red lights, and (if you live in northern Indiana like me) depressed with the lingering of winter temperatures in the middle of April.
But we especially don’t like waiting on God. Of all the commands of Scripture, perhaps this is one of the hardest to obey.
