Goodbye June 09 | Hello July 09

The life-changing ‘Goodbye Hello‘ continues again this month… July is normally crazy camp season, but I’ve said no to crazy camps to spend time at home and have a crazy camp with Row and Sam. VERY good times. They are both doing well. I’ve also been doing some design work. Here’s the smashing magazine desktop calendar I’ve chosen for July:

Piper on Cultural Relevance

John Piper doesn’t have a TV and doesn’t go to the movies very often. I’m all for godly engagement with culture in preaching Jesus, but this article from Piper is helpful in keeping the main thing the main thing. Here’s a snippet:

“If you want to be relevant, say, for prostitutes, don’t watch a movie with a lot of tumbles in a brothel.

Being entertained by sin does not increase compassion for sinners.”
