The stakes in the current conflict over sex are more critical, more central, and more essential than in any controversy the church has ever known. This is a momentous statement, but I make it soberly, without exaggeration. Conflict over sex these days is not just challenging tradition, orthodoxy, and respect for authority in areas such as ordination, marriage, and gender roles. And it does not just affect critically important decisions like the sanctity of human life, the authority and trustworthiness of Scripture, the Trinity and the incarnation of Christ. Rather, war over sex among Christians is now raging over absolutely essential matters of faith without which no one can be a Christian in the first place – matters such as sin, salvation, the gospel and the identity of God Himself (Daniel Heimbach).

Just finished reading three Love Inspired books by Janet Tronstad set in the
community of Dry Creek, Montana. They are An Angel for Dry Creek, A
Gentleman for Dry Creek and A Bride for Dry Creek. These are 3 good, easy to
read, light romances. Often Love Inspired books have a strong Christian
message in them. These do not. They are certainly Christian in nature, but I
did not feel a deeper message in them. For me they provided a nice enjoyable
reading time. They are set in current time and, I assume, in a fictional
place. I confess that all that happens there seems a bit far fetched. Sort of
like a mystery series like Murder She Wrote -- You know how convenient it is
for them that murders just keep happening over and over in their small town?
Well, in Dry Creek you will encounter hit men, kidnappers, rustlers and more.
Definitely fiction, but fun.

No reading this afternoon. DH is off and we are heading out with the kids to
play! Hope you all have a great day!
