Jesus Storybook Bible

Bradens's bedtime routine is one of my favorite times of the day.  After he gets a cup of milk and his blanket, he climbs into our bed for a story from the Jesus Storybook Bible by Sally Lloyd-Jones.  This is a tremendous resource for parents.  Every story from OT and NT whispers Jesus' name and points to Him as the hero of the BIG STORY. I highly recommend it as a parent who has been reading it to him from before he was born.

You can look at a sample of the book here.

Healing and Restoration

The tornadoes that went across the southeast on April 27th were some of the most destructive in over 50 years.

Here is a story in the New York Times today about Southern Baptist Disaster Relief teams.  I am proud to have worked with some of these folks following Hurricane Wilma in 2005.  Good people doing good work and partnering with organizations to bring restoration to hurting people.

You can give to their efforts here.
