Here’s my second foray into self–publishing—Marriage & the Gospel.
The premise of this book is this: According to Ephesians 5, Marriage is a Mysterious Picture of the Gospel. In the same way, Jesus’ love for His Bride, the Church, is the Template we are to follow in our own marriages.

Part One: The Background (feel free to skip down to the “Big Lesson” if you want a shorter devotional reading).
First: why did Jesus pick Peter, James, and John to be His inner circle of ministry training? There are several explanations for this: Continue reading

Matthew 13:18–19a | Hear then the parable of the sower. When anyone hears the word of the kingdom… that which is sown in his heart
