Random Stuff for the Week of 7/13-7/20

* I appreciate all the positive response from the little narrative I have attempted to write ("That's Not What I Came For."). If you would like to see another, more extensive work, let me refer you to KJ's work called Sennacherib, the tragedy of the account as written in Isaiah 36-37. KJ is a very gifted writer and excellent thinker as well. * I am still getting the Top 5 Pictures in from Drew and Erin's wedding. If you would like to submit your five, please post them on the comment section under the "All Done - Your Turn" post. Please use the names already given to the pics. Your input is greatly appreciated. * I just recently sent out our monthly Brister Briefings (via email) for the month of July. If you are not on the mailing list and would like to be, please send me your email either by posting it on the comment section of this post or email me directly (outpostministries@yahoo.com). * If you have ever wanted to understand more about the Trinity, one of the most difficult doctrines of the Christian faith to understand, let me recommend to you Bruce A. Ware's latest book Father, Son, & Holy Spirit: Relationships, Roles, & Relevance. Ware does a wonderful job of bringing the more complex, more difficult doctrinal truths like providence and the Trinity in such a fresh and practical way. A book well worth your money and time.
