What, then, is masculinity according to Scripture? In the book of Ruth, Boaz demonstrates three qualities every man needs. He provides: when Boaz discovers his... Continue Reading →
It's a common assumption; you and I have heard it before. We get tired of the exhausting work of ministry and, understandably, we want to take a break.

I posted a few pictures from this past week of Emily and I traveling in New England. We had the opportunity to visit not only Boston, but also Salem and Plymouth.
