This is a part of the Command blog series where we’re talking about how the Ten Commandments aren’t just a dusty set of tablets with dumb rules . . . by a long shot! It was absolutely perfect. As the bride and groom stood underneath the pristine, white tent in the warmth of an ethereal summer …
Perhaps you guys remember my review of Robin Jones Gunn’s Becoming Us. I have a soft spot for Robin’s books because they helped steer me in the right direction during my teen years and help me see the practical side of Christianity. So I was THRILLED when my dad threw an envelope my direction and …
This is a part of the Command blog series where we’re talking about how the Ten Commandments aren’t just a dusty set of tablets with dumb rules . . . by a long shot! P.S. Don’t forget to read our newly released, FREE devotional “Still”! We all thought we’d be good on the “Thou shalt not murder” …
