Still mentally camped out on the John 15:1-16 passage- I am like totally being pruned by the Vine-Dresser- lately. You know how it goes: a little snip here (mortification of my sin), a little water there (lots of prayerful tears), a little fertilizer for the soul (dealing with lots of difficult people), some sunshine (you know- the good times- the joy that cometh in the morning); and then the Lord, like, totally added “miracle grow” to my soul when He providentially worked the details of my life out so that I could hear this great sermon.

This message just blessed me… because it totally rocks- there is no better way for me to explain. If you have an hour and 11 minutes of laundry, dishes, or other mindless work to do- this message will turn your mundane chores into an everlasting blessing. Highly recommended listening for all elect.

Born in 76, saved in 95, happily married since 96, moved from MA to TX in 97- did the reverse two years later. First child born in 99, second and third children (twins) born in 01, fourth child born in 03, fifth child born in 04- started homeschooling the same year. Moved from MA to NY in 05 and then moved again from NY to PA in 09- In all of it, totally feeling my weakness, absolutely embracing the cross, and in an amazing way experiencing the resurrection grace of God. So, I figured why not just boast in it? Hence, Boasting in Weakness: Appropriating the Cross of Christ for Life- 2014.
