Iguazu FallsI recently read Steve DeWitt’s Eyes Wide Open: Enjoying God In Everything. I love the title, and I love the book. Here’s one of many things I enjoyed from the book, and we’ve added some photos and video to help you appreciate what he’s talking about.

 

Som Sabadell Flash Mob and the Gift of Music

He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end."

Creator and Culture, and Anticipating a Redeemed Earth

Videos and Articles: True Beauty, Money, Adoption, Sexual Sin, and Ben Stein

A number of worthwhile videos and articles have come to my attention lately, so I wanted to pass them on. If one of them connects with you, maybe you could leave a comment recommending it to others.
