I was looking for a fun and funny video to do a Good Clean Fun post. I came across this one, which is fun for me. I love what Jack Crabtree says about how we should read the Bible.

The 5 Ways Monopoly is Too Much Like Our Lives
Last night I was privileged to hear a great sermon by Brian Anderson on “Proper Priority, Focus, and Perspective.” It was an excellent look at the rich fool of Luke 12:13-21. One of his illustrations was about life and Monopoly. I told him I had to steal it and share it.

Radical: A Book Review
When a book has the word “radical” in the title, you can expect to be challenged. When a book is entitled Radical, you can expect to have your feet kicked out from under you. That is exactly what David Platt accomplishes with his book, Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream. [Read more…] about Radical Challenges and Radical Mistakes: A Book Review
