Bitterness // Church Turf Wars // God's Goal in Your Suffering

Nancy Guthrie has an excellent article on bitterness in an old Tabletalk magazine.


Pursuing greater influence among leadership in the church isn't necessarily a bad thing.  Doing it by way of gossip and flattery among elders definitely is.  Check out St. Anne's Pub for some edifying conversation on this topic.  The interviews are especially good, and the "Elder Gossip" track at the end.


A video from Paul Tripp about his recent suffering, and what God was doing in it.  It's a little overly dramatic cinematography, perhaps, but what he is saying is so good.  "If this is what it takes for God to produce that in me [really relying on His grace], then this has been worth it."  I'd also commend Calvin's Institutes, book 3, chapter 8, "Bearing the Cross," on this topic.
