This is a now a regular feature on the blog.  Usually on Mondays, I get caught up on my favorite podcasts and this usually results in a lot of tweeting on that day.  However, if you are at work and not checking Twitter during that time, you might miss some of the great truth being shared by others.  So, I am sharing some of best tweets from the previous week which include great wisdom and truth. and the heart of the Gospel is not what we do for God, but what God has done for us in Jesus Christ. @mockingbirdnyc When we gather (for worship), are we gathering as watchers or as beholders? @jaredcwilson Law and Gospel must be kept apart not only in sermons, but above all they must be distinguished within a person's own heart. #Lect3 @CFW_Quotes When the work of Christ for us becomes extracted from the person of Christ w/in us, is it any wonder there is a chasm between our heads & hearts? @WilbourneWisdom

I really enjoyed my devotional for 2016 which was The Mockingbird Devotional (pictured below). I have also been reading from other various books throughout the year including The Heidelberg Catechism, The Westminster Confession and Reading Romans. For 2017, I am looking forward to a 60 day devotional edited by Elyse Fitzpatrick.  It includes various authors such as: Bryan Chappell, David Zahl, Ray Ortlund, Matt Chandler, J.D. Greear, Scotty Smith, Paul David Tripp, and Steve Brown.

We are 100% in Christ, so we are loved 100%.  @scottywardsmith Shame attacks our worth and value. Our response? Look to God, the only One who can assign worth and value. @simplegospelpod We don't read the Bible to find things to do or things to know but to find a Person to trust. @feastonChrist via @FitziesPorch The main point of the Gospel is not ...
