Breakfast with Sproul 3 Weeks from Today

Three weeks from today my mom, my mother-in-law, my sister Regan and my friend Cbass will be in Orlando, Florida, kicking it with Johnny Mac, RC Sproul, John Piper, Ravi Zacharias, and Al Mohler at the annual Ligonier Ministry Conference. This is my fouth year attending and it is definitely one of the highlights of my year. This year the conference titled, "Contending for the Truth," is on apologetics. MacArthur, Piper, Zacharias, and Sproul are my favorite teachers so to have them all in one conference is going to be awesome. I have just started listening to Mohler in the last couple of months and he is also a brilliant and gifted man of God. What a blessing this conference will be. Thanks, God!

New Books

My wonderful husband recently surprised me with the gift of two books this Valentines Day. The first is "A Christian Manifesto" by Francis Schaeffer. The second is titled "What is Truth" with a subtitle of "A Comparative Study of the Positions of Cornelius Van Til, Francis Schaeffer, Carl F. H. Henry, Donald Bloesch, and Millard Erickson" and is written by James Emery White. Neither of these books were on my wanted list, in fact the second one I have never even heard of so I was very impressed that he picked them out for me. Though I am in the middle of "Can Man Live Without God?" by Ravi Zacharias (EXCELLENT!), I couldn't help myself and am already half way through "A Christian Manifesto." Oh, I wish I could read my life away! THANKS, HONEY!!!
