The God of love and peace be with you, my friends.
Today’s Kindle deals include a couple of books you will want to consider.
(Yesterday on the blog: Do You Practice?)

Here’s a word for husbands. “To truly love all the versions of your wife, you have to develop endless amounts of grace. Grace is what she needs. It’s what will ease her out of her darker times, what will reassure her when she is afraid, lonely, or lacking in confidence. Grace is what will keep her from withdrawing or collapsing or deciding that you aren’t capable of leading her spiritually.”

“The age of artificial intelligence has dawned upon humanity.” Dustin Ryan gives the lay of the lands and discusses both the potential upsides and downsides of the technology. “This essay will help Christians understand this new technology: its benefits, its risks, and then some guiding principles to consider. In the end, I will argue that AI is a tool that has real dangers—but also very real possibilities for aiding with the Great Commission.”

This is a solid answer to a common question. Essentially, we pray to God because he is sovereign, not despite his sovereignty.

Kim Barnes describes the beauty and the benefit of intergenerational friendships.

Students who are heading home for the summer will benefit from this article. “When I was a college student, I had a weird relationship with the concept of ‘home.’ As I approached the end of a semester, I longed to go back home to my parents’ house for break. I looked forward to the familiarity, the family, and the rest. After some time at my parents’ house, though, that longing for home would return.”

Wayne Grudem assesses the arguments for and against physician-assisted suicide.

There is nothing better for your spiritual wellbeing than to be in a Christian church. There is nothing worse for your spiritual wellbeing than to be in a Christianish church. Here are a few marks of each.

To be always mindful of the Word of the Lord is to be always mindful of the Lord himself.

They are giving away FIVE 3-packs of J. Warner Wallace’s NEWEST book Person of Interest so you can do a reading group with your family or friends.
Here is more about the book:
Can the truth about Jesus be uncovered—even without a body or a crime scene? Join cold-case detective and bestselling author J. Warner Wallace as he investigates Jesus using an innovative and unique approach he employs to solve real missing person murder cases.
In Person of Interest, Wallace carefully sifts through the evidence from history alone, without relying on the New Testament. You’ll understand like never before how Jesus, the most significant person in history, changed the world.
Features:

Join a cold-case detective as he uncovers the truth about Jesus using the same approach he employs to solve real murder cases
Marvel at the way Jesus changed the world as you investigate why Jesus still matters today
Learn how to use an innovative and unique “fuse and fallout” investigative strategy that you can also use to examine other claims of history
Explore and learn how to respond to common objections to Christianity

Detective J. Warner Wallace listened to a pastor talk about Jesus and wondered why anyone would think Jesus was a person of interest.
Wallace was skeptical of the Bible, but he’d investigated several no-body homicide cases in which there was no crime scene, no physical evidence, and no victim’s body. Could the historical life and actions of Jesus be investigated in the same way?
In Person of Interest, Wallace describes his own personal investigative journey from atheism to Christianity as he carefully considers the evidence. Creative, compelling, and fully illustrated, Person of Interest will strengthen the faith of believers while engaging those who are skeptical and distrusting of the New Testament.
