Gospel Meditations for Men
Last year my wife blogged about Gospel Meditations for Women by Chris Anderson and Joe Tyrpak.
Chris and Joe wrote a corresponding booklet for men that’s available starting today (in time for Father’s Day if you order soon).
Applying the gospel never gets old because we always need it. These fresh meditations serve men well.

Gospel Meditations for Women
By Jenni Naselli
Andy recently gave me Gospel Meditations for Women by Chris Anderson and Joe Tyrpak. I’m enjoying and being edified by it. It’s not fluffy.
The thirty-two-page booklet is broken into thirty-one days of specific Scripture-readings with a corresponding gospel-meditation. It applies the gospel, for example, to relationships (“The Gospel Crushes Relational Conflict”) and trials (“Jesus’ Crucifixion and My Trials”). The topics range from theology (e.g., sanctification, inspiration, Christ’s substitutionary death) to specific applications for women (e.g., modesty, singleness, romance, motherhood, older women mentors). I especially appreciate the little nuggets of application at the bottom of each page, which sum up the meditations. This morning I read, “Let the Gospel affect your relationships.” Very good. I need this.

Chris Anderson on Mark Driscoll
Chris Anderson’s thoughtful evaluation is worth more than two cents.
Particularly convicting:
The struggle to make much of Christ rather than self is a struggle for every preacher; we’re all prone to say “Behold me telling you to behold the Lamb of God.”
Update: Cf. Dave Doran’s “A Few More Pennies on Mark Driscoll.”
Church Works Media
My friend Chris Anderson introduces a new website: Church Works Media (RSS feed). The site includes some contributions from Joe Tyrpak, a gifted, godly young pastor and one of my close friends (e.g., he’s one of my accountability parters).
Bob Kauflin testifies,
Even though I’m usually associated with a more contemporary style of music than what is found on this site, I deeply resonate with the values of ChurchWorksMedia.com. In my interactions with Chris Anderson over the years, his desire to faithfully communicate in song the truth and wonder of God’s Word has been unmistakable. I’m glad to see the hymns he and others have been writing gain a wider audience through this website.
