Yesterday's sermon

At church yesterday, I think I heard the best sermon I have ever heard on being a husband as our new pastor works his way through Colossians (though the message was mostly from Eph 5.) It is available as the most recent sermon from either provcast.org or on iTunes under "Provcast." It is excellent as Jason compares Jesus' Gospel love for the church with the Gospel love which husbands should have for their wives. And he makes his application much broader than just husbands, so I highly recommend downloading and listening to this message.

Also, I started The Pleasures of God again yesterday. It is by John Piper and is a tremendous read as far as I've gotten. It immediately begins expanding one's understanding and awe of God. For me personally, it began stoking again my affections for God which I realized had been lacking in their proper focus.
