A few passing thoughts to remind myself of how to read and listen to news reports on ‘breaking news’ issues.

This Kind of Day Calls for Faithful Preachers
A.W. Tozer called for a rejuvenation of the church by calling for faithful preachers. If Christianity is to receive a rejuvenation, it must be by other means than any now being used.
