At times I have featured very relevant Bible teachings from Brent Barnett, a disabled, stay-at-home dad who writes Bible study materials on the side. He has published a book titled "Catch Fire: A Call to Spiritual Awakening" and publishes a free weekly devotional . His website is http://www.relevantbibleteaching.com/ where you can subscribe to his devotional or purchase his book.

This year some of us may be called to share our faith with a Muslim. The religion is growing in the US. One website that is designed to help Christians come face to face with the reality of Islam is http://www.answering-islam.org/.

If you enjoy listening to some of the most gifted Bible teachers in the land, you will probably enjoy SermonAudio.com.

Many of us read a terrific book by Jim Rutz titled "Megashift" last year. You can buy his new book, "The Meaning of Life" and read his weekly articles on WorldNetDaily. You can find the archive of his articles here .

A recent post by Roger on the House Church Blog entitled Intimate Heart Worship is a great read. He talks about worship in the small house church context. If you agree, or disagree, post a comment to let your thoughts be known.
