Russell Moore is one of my favorite pastors and public theologians. Currently he is teaching through Revelation at his church and I thought his weekly email “Moore to the Point” was particularly encouraging.  

Are you an adult who struggles to talk to young people about faith? Axis is a ministry that offers a ton of resources for adults to help disciple teens.
One resource I take advantage of is called the Culture Translator. “Each week, our team researches culture to help you stay up to date on the music, movies, TV shows, and social media trends impacting your kid’s world.” I get an email from them every week with three cultural event and some Christian analysis to help me help my kids understand pop-culture from a Christian perspective. They have many other resources as well. Definitely worth checking out.

Podcasts:
I was blessed and challenged by the preaching of Tyler Staton’s message: For the Sake of Others: How Many Times Should I Forgive.

From my bookshelf:
Blessed: Experience the Promise of the Book of Revelation by Nancy Guthrie
Nancy does an amazing job of walking through the symbolism of Revelation reminding us "Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear the words of this prophecy and keep what is written in it, because the time is near." Revelation 1:3 CSB.

A song I'm listening to:
Is He Worthy — Andrew Peterson
Andrew was one of the first Christian musicians that I ever heard. I’ve been listening to him for 30 years now. He is an incredible story-teller through, song and books.
Bonus: you should check out his children’s book series The Wingfeather Saga. It’s so good.

Quote of the week:
G.K. Chesterton on the book of Revelation: "Though St. John the Evangelist saw many strange monsters in his vision, he saw no creature so wild as one of his own commentators."
