I’ve got a cold
I’ve got a cold, thanks to Maxime and Esther. It’s the kind that hits hard, but goes off very quickly. I’ll relax until the youth group tonight and I should be better tomorrow to lead  the service and preach.
Discipleship and the Idols of Family and Culture – The Gospel Coalition Blog
When was the last time I heard a sermon on the true cost of discipleship? I don’t recall hearing any when I was growing up.

The Most Urgent Need in the Church – Kevin DeYoung
This applies to France, maybe especially to France where the Word is rarely at the centre of worship and at the centre of the christians’ lives. Thank you for your prayers.
One of the church members teaches arts to children and adults. Her speciality is mosaic. she organised an exhibition this week to display the works of some of her adult students. It was great, and most of the pieces were beautiful.
