It’s hard to believe that Labor Day is just around the corner! That means fall is almost here, which means Christmas is, too (just 125 more days, if you’re counting).

I hope you’ve had a great week and are looking forward to worshiping with your congregation this weekend. Most of you will be back with your Bible study groups, too.

While you are relaxing this weekend, take a moment and read one or more of the blog posts I’ve curated for you this weekend. I’ll see you back in your inbox next Monday with a new post that features a paragraph or two from a book you’ll want to know about.

Thanks, as always, for following this blog, reposting content on Twitter and Facebook, and helping fellow leaders discover the content that is available here for free.

Shoulder to shoulder,

Ken Braddy
