Update Meme Here are some things I have been up to lately in meme form!
What I'm Reading: "The Ever-Loving Truth" By Voddie Baucham, Jr.
I checked this out from the church library two weeks ago, and I'm halfway through it! It is a really interesting book because it exposes many of today's false ideas such as "tolerance" and "there is no absolute truth", and truly shows that we are living in a culture that is hostile to Christians and the name of Jesus!
What I'm Listening to:
"What's a Girl To Do?" By Doug Philips
Actually, I'm kind of cheating because I listened to this a few weeks ago, but I thought I'd put it onto here just because it is really a great message. The description on the website says...
"A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. The same is true of double-minded parents. Across America we have met evangelical parents who desperately want their daughters to grow to be virtuous women with a love for home. Notwithstanding these good intentions, many of these same parents continue to build their daughters’ future on a feminist model. Frankly, most Christians are unaware that the Bible offers clear guidelines for how wise parents can invest their daughters’ time for the glory of God. This tape offers hope and direction for the woman of God who desires to cultivate virtue while fully exercising her gifts."
And I've been listening to ( and inevitability dancing to) Rockin Robin by Bobby Day.
