## Articles
- [Union with Christ: The Offense of the Living Bread](https://g3min.org/union-with-christ-the-offense-of-the-living-bread/): John 6:51–59 is one of those passages that instantly tells you whether you want Jesus Himself or merely a Jesus-shaped comfort blanket. Christ does not aim for “accessible,” “tasteful,” or “non-threatening.” He aims for true disciples. And true disciples are not made by spiritual entertainment; they’re made when sinners are confronted with the living Christ—His identity, His authority, and the necessity of faith-union with Him.
- [Cartas para Cristãos Estagnados: O que Sempre Concorda](https://g3min.org/cartas-para-cristaos-estagnados-vies-de-confirmacao/): Às vezes, nossos problemas espirituais vêm de lugares inesperados. Esperamos que pessoas que discordam da doutrina, da pregação e do ensino da Palavra não cresçam muito, e certamente esse é o caso. Mas, de forma inesperada, algumas pessoas deixam de crescer porque concordam demais. Creio que essa é a sua situação.
- [Letters to Stagnant Christians: Confirmation Bias](https://g3min.org/letters-to-stagnant-christians-confirmation-bias/): Sometimes our spiritual problems come from unexpected places. We expect that people who disagree with the doctrine, preaching, and teaching of the Word will not grow much, and that is certainly the case. But unexpectedly, some people fail to grow because they agree too much. I think this is your situation.
- [Love the Church as Your Pastor Loves the Church](https://g3min.org/love-the-church-as-your-pastor-loves-the-church/): “Shepherd the flock of God among you, exercising oversight not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and not for sordid gain, but with eagerness; nor yet as lording it over those allotted to your charge, but proving to be examples to the flock.” —1 Peter 5:2–3
- [O Nome de Yahweh ](https://g3min.org/o-nome-de-yahweh/): Muitos sabemos que o povo de Deus da história, conheceu o nome pessoal de Deus — "Yahweh" — e o usou com alegria e força ao longo dos milênios do Antigo Testamento. De fato, o nome Yahweh é (muitas vezes) a forma mais comum de se referir a Deus no Antigo Testamento — aparecendo nada menos que 6.876 vezes. Entretanto, de forma intrigante, em nossas Bíblias em português não vemos o nome Yahweh nem uma única vez. Em seu lugar, nossas traduções colocaram o título "O Senhor".
- [Uma Comunidade Humilde](https://g3min.org/uma-comunidade-humilde/): Naquele momento os discípulos aproximaram-se de Jesus e perguntaram: “Quem é, porventura, o maior no reino dos céus?” E Jesus, chamando uma criança, colocou-a no meio deles e disse: “Em verdade vos digo: se não vos converterdes e não vos tornardes como crianças, de modo algum entrareis no reino dos céus. Portanto, aquele que se humilhar como esta criança, esse é o maior no reino dos céus.” —Mateus 18:1–4 (ARA)
- [The Pleasure of Time](https://g3min.org/the-pleasure-of-time/): In the previous two articles of this series in Ecclesiastes 3, we considered Solomon’s wisdom regarding the providence of time as well as the purpose of time. Today, in the final article, the pleasure of time is in view.
- [The Problem of Evil: Mystery, Sovereignty, and the Glory of God](https://g3min.org/the-problem-of-evil-mystery-sovereignty-and-the-glory-of-god/): The problem of evil has long been the sharpest blade pressed against the Christian faith. If God is good, why is there evil? If God is sovereign, why does He allow suffering? If God is both good and sovereign, how can a world like this exist at all? If you haven’t been asked this question, maybe you have wrestled with this problem yourself. As Christians, we must understand how to answer this question for ourselves and for the people we interact with, to shed biblical clarity on this difficult question. 
- [A Humble Community](https://g3min.org/a-humble-community/): At that time the disciples came to Jesus and said, “Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 
- [The Purpose of Time](https://g3min.org/the-purpose-of-time/): In the previous article of this series in Ecclesiastes 3, we considered Solomon’s wisdom regarding the providence of time. In this article, we will examine another facet as portrayed in the passage: the purpose of time.
- [Battling Lust](https://g3min.org/battling-lust/): The recent trend of stories about former ministers of the gospel being disqualified from Christian ministry because they fell into lustful, extramarital affairs and adultery seems to show no sign of slowing down. One response from many has been shock; how could these men make such a shipwreck of their faith when they were evidently called to such a high calling by the Lord? Others have simply been disturbed. If these men fell into such grievous error and sin, what hope is there for the rest of us?
- [A Purificação Exige uma Vida nos Caminhos de Deus](https://g3min.org/a-purificacao-exige-uma-vida-nos-caminhos-de-deus/): Como parte da comunidade de Deus, precisamos constantemente nos perguntar: o que estamos fazendo hoje vem da Palavra de Deus ou será que apenas "gourmetizamos" um hábito da nossa cultura e o inserimos na nossa fé? Se a nossa prática está alinhada às Escrituras, amém, seguimos em frente. Mas, se percebermos que algo foi imposto pela cultura do Mundo, precisamos ter a coragem de fazer uma faxina espiritual.
- [A Providência do Tempo](https://g3min.org/a-providencia-do-tempo/): Era o ano de 1519. O explorador português Fernão de Magalhães partiu em uma missão ambiciosa para encontrar uma rota ocidental rumo às Índias Orientais. Entre os cinco navios desta expedição, estavam 270 homens e suprimentos incontáveis; mas, de grande importância, estavam as dezoito ampulhetas da missão — virar regularmente essas dezoito ampulhetas a cada meia hora era responsabilidade exclusiva de um grupo designado de jovens grumetes. Esses rapazes deveriam virar as ampulhetas, apesar das tempestades repetidas, dos terríveis retrocessos com navios perdidos e de homens morrendo ao redor.
- [The Yahweh Heist](https://g3min.org/the-yahweh-heist/): Yahweh. . . . This is My name forever, and thus shall I be remembered throughout all generations. Exod 3:15
- [The Providence of Time](https://g3min.org/the-providence-of-time/): The year was 1519. Portuguese explorer, Ferdinand Magellan set out on an ambitious mission to find a western route to the East Indies. Among the five ships on this route and mission were 270 men and countless supplies; but of great importance, were the eighteen hourglasses on the mission—the regular half-hour turn of these eighteen hourglasses were the sole responsibility of a designated set of shipboys. These boys were to turn the hourglasses, despite repeated storms, terrible setbacks with ships lost, and men dying all around.
- [Cleansing Brings About Restoration](https://g3min.org/cleansing-brings-about-restoration/): In this series of articles, we have been looking closely at the reign of Josiah, as found in 2 Chronicles 34:1–13, to determine what the church today can learn regarding the call to cleanse pagan culture from God’s community. Thus far, we’ve seen the requirements needed from God’s people: that we walk in God’s way and seek His direction. In this final article, Scripture shows us that this cleansing brings about restoration.
- [The Tender Mercy of God: Prophetic Praise and the Horn of Salvation](https://g3min.org/the-tender-mercy-of-god-prophetic-praise-and-the-horn-of-salvation/): And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High;  for you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways, to give knowledge of salvation to his people in the forgiveness of their sins,  because of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death to guide our feet into the way of peace (Luke 1:76–79)
- [Letters to Stagnant Christians: Grumbling](https://g3min.org/letters-to-stagnant-christians-grumbling/): The problems that cause stagnation in Christians can be as varied as Christians themselves. Commonly shared problems are the kind that Scripture tends to address frequently. One of those problems, and one that I’m afraid you share, is what we might call the Grumbles. 
- [Cleansing Requires God’s Direction](https://g3min.org/cleansing-requires-gods-direction/): The account of King Josiah’s life and reign in Scripture clearly describes the methods in which God’s people today can seek holy purification from God to rid pagan culture from the body of the church. In the previous article, we saw through 2 Chronicles 34:1–13 how cleansing requires walking in God’s ways. Today, we will examine further to find that cleansing also requires God’s direction.
- [“Interracial Marriage” Isn’t a Thing](https://g3min.org/interracial-marriage-isnt-a-thing/): ... unless you're talking about elves and men, I suppose.
- [The Test of Faith: Finding Joy in Faithful Obedience](https://g3min.org/the-test-of-faith-finding-joy-of-faithful-obedience/): And immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, blessing God. (Luke 1:64)
- [The Weight of Eternity: Why the Traditional View of Hell Still Matters](https://g3min.org/the-weight-of-eternity-why-the-traditional-view-of-hell-still-matters/): The doctrine of hell has long been the darkest and most difficult tenet of the Christian faith. But for centuries, the orthodox consensus of the church—spanning Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant traditions—has been that the final state of the unrepentant is one of Eternal Conscious Torment (ECT). This view holds that those who definitively reject God’s grace will be raised from the dead, judged, and consigned to a state of unending, conscious separation from God, characterized in Scripture as "fire," "darkness," and "weeping and gnashing of teeth."
- [Quando Deus Fica em Silêncio: Encontre Respostas nas Disciplinas Espirituais](https://g3min.org/quando-deus-fica-em-silencio-encontre-respostas-nas-disciplinas-espirituais/): “Chegou o tempo de Isabel dar à luz, e ela teve um filho.” (Lucas 1:57)
- [Cleansing Requires Walking in God’s Ways](https://g3min.org/cleansing-requires-walking-in-gods-ways/): As members of God’s community, we need to constantly consider whether what we are doing is revealed to us in His Word or if we have embedded a cultural practice into our faith and practice. If our practice aligns with Scripture—continue in it. If we recognize a practice is prescribed by culture—let’s purge it!
- [Carta Aberta à Cristãos Estagnados: O Frequentador Esporádico](https://g3min.org/carta-aberta-a-cristaos-estagnados-o-frequentador-esporadico/): Fico feliz em saber que você está aproveitando o novo ano como uma oportunidade para buscar um crescimento espiritual genuíno. Sim, escrevi para o Mike, e ele obviamente cresceu espiritualmente, então fico feliz em escrever de forma semelhante para você, conforme pediu.
- [A Trindade Sob Ataque: A Posição de Niceia pela Igualdade Divina de Cristo](https://g3min.org/a-trindade-sob-ataque-a-posicao-de-niceia-pela-igualdade-divina-de-cristo/): O que significa Jesus ser tanto o Filho de Deus quanto plenamente divino — e por que isso é tão urgentemente importante hoje? A doutrina da Trindade, a verdade mais profunda e definidora do cristianismo, repousa sobre esta questão, resumindo o mistério de um Deus em três Pessoas — Pai, Filho e Espírito Santo. Compreender isso não é meramente um exercício teológico, é uma questão de consequência eterna, ministrando a nossa salvação, adoração e confiança em Deus. No cerne dessa crença estão dois conceitos inseparáveis do Credo de Niceia: a geração eterna do Filho e Sua consubstancialidade com o Pai. Essas ideias emergiram de um cadinho de perseguição e conflito teológico, notavelmente durante o Concílio de Niceia em 325 d.C., onde a Igreja confrontou desafios à divindade de Cristo. Longe de ser uma teoria abstrata, a afirmação da igualdade do Filho com o Pai e Seu papel distinto mas unificado dentro da Divindade mantém a integridade de nossa fé. Esta exploração traça os fundamentos históricos e bíblicos dessas verdades, revelando por que permanecem essenciais ao cristianismo hoje.
- [O Sinal da Glória: O Evangelho para os Humildes](https://g3min.org/o-sinal-da-gloria-o-evangelho-para-os-humildes/): Quando nos aproximamos do texto familiar de Lucas 2—talvez demasiado familiar para alguns de nós—devemos nos esforçar para remover as camadas de verniz sentimental que séculos de cartões de Natal e apresentações teatrais aplicaram a ele. Frequentemente chegamos a esta narrativa esperando um interlúdio pastoral suave, um momento tranquilo de "paz na terra" que aquece o coração, mas exige pouco da mente ou da vontade. Esperamos uma noite silenciosa, esperamos um estábulo aconchegante.
- [Letters To Stagnant Christians: Scattershot Attendance](https://g3min.org/letters-to-stagnant-christians-scattershot-attendance/): I’m glad you’re taking the new year as an opportunity to seek real spiritual growth. Yes, I did write to Mike, and he has obviously experienced some benefit, so I am happy to write similarly to you, as you’ve requested. 
- [When God Silences You: Finding Grace in Divine Discipline](https://g3min.org/when-god-silences-you-finding-grace-in-divine-discipline/): "Now the time came for Elizabeth to give birth, and she bore a son." (Luke 1:57)
- [Feridas Profundas, Cura Profunda: Como Ajudar Quem Foi Machucado Pela Igreja](https://g3min.org/feridas-profundas-cura-profunda-como-ajudar-quem-foi-machucado-pela-igreja/): Vamos conversar sobre ferida de igreja—não aquela leve que você consegue ignorar com um "A Igreja não é perfeita"—mas aquela que aperta o peito, faz você questionar Deus e te fere todo domingo, por dentro. Ferida de igreja é a dor que acontece no contexto da comunidade espiritual, através de pastores, líderes, membros, sistemas ou até mesmo teologia usada e aplicada da forma errada. Dói de um jeito diferente porque você confiou nas pessoas com seu tempo, você confiou com sua alma. Você conectou as palavras e ações delas ao nome de Deus, então quando elas falham com você, parece que Deus falha também. Se ninguém mais entende por que você ainda luta contra essa dor, bom, eu entendo.
- [Why Church Hurt Follows You—and How God Heals What People Broke](https://g3min.org/why-church-hurt-follows-you-and-how-god-heals-what-people-broke/): Let’s talk about church hurt—not the light kind you can brush off with Church folks be church-folkin’—but the kind that hits your chest, makes you question God, and has you halfway out the door every Sunday, at least on the inside. Church hurt is pain that happens in the context of spiritual community, through pastors, leaders, members, systems, or even theology used and applied the wrong way. It hits differently because you didn’t just trust these people with your time; you trusted them with your soul. You tied their words and actions to God’s name, so when they failed you, it felt like God had failed you, too. If nobody else gets why you still wrestle with it, I do.
- [A Reforma Batista Primitiva da Ceia do Senhor](https://g3min.org/a-reforma-batista-primitiva-da-ceia-do-senhor/): Todo mês de outubro nossa igreja dedica um domingo à Reforma, e este ano especificamente à reforma da Ceia do Senhor. Passei algum tempo considerando os esforços batistas primitivos em retornar a uma compreensão bíblica da ordenança do Senhor. O melhor lugar para começar é considerando o capítulo 30, parágrafo 2 da Confissão de Fé Batista de Londres.
- [A Crise das Amizades Modernas e o Colapso do Compromisso com a Igreja](https://g3min.org/a-crise-das-amizades-modernas-e-o-colapso-do-compromisso-com-a-igreja/): Em uma era que está sempre online, em conexão constante, a solidão e a instabilidade de relacionamentos estão batendo níveis alarmantes. As pessoas anseiam por amizades profundas e significativas e por um senso de comunidade, porém muitas hesitam em se comprometer com relacionamentos duradouros. Esta luta não é apenas pessoal — estende-se à igreja, onde um número crescente de cristãos professos pensam na sua congregação local com a mesma mentalidade fugaz que aplicam às amizades.
- [A Trindade Sob Ataque: Por Que Desvios Modernos Ameaçam uma Verdade Cristã Fundamental](https://g3min.org/a-trindade-sob-ataque-por-que-desvios-modernos-ameacam-uma-verdade-crista-fundamental/): Imagine cantar sua música de adoração favorita — em voz alta, o coração acelerado — e então perceber que está descrevendo Deus como um ser humano temperamental, sofrendo junto com você. Parece interessante, mas é verdadeiro? Em 2025, a teologia trinitária, o alicerce do cristianismo, está em ascensão nas discussões — mas também está cercada de músicas que grudam na cabeça e ideias modernas que borram as linhas entre Criador e criatura. Hoje, a teologia não é mais apenas para estudiosos — está em nossas playlists, púlpitos e posts nas redes sociais.
- [Early Baptist Reformation of the Lord’s Supper](https://g3min.org/early-baptist-reformation-of-the-lords-supper/): Each October our church devotes a Sunday to the Reformation, and this year specifically the reformation of the Lord’s Supper. I spent some time considering the early Baptist efforts in returning to a biblical understanding of the Lord’s ordinance. The best place to start is first to consider chapter 30: paragraph 2 of the London Baptist Confession of Faith. 
- [Inspiração Sob Ataque: Por Que a Bíblia Permanece Inabalável?](https://g3min.org/inspiracao-sob-ataque-por-que-a-biblia-permanece-inabalavel/): Hoje, muitos — tanto em círculos cristãos quanto não cristãos — têm abraçado uma ideia perigosa a respeito da Escritura: a de que a Bíblia não é inspirada nem autoritativa, e qualquer um que creia o contrário é ignorante e sem instrução.
- [Alegoria vs. Tipologia: Entendendo a Hermenêutica Bíblica](https://g3min.org/alegoria-vs-tipologia-entendendo-a-hermeneutica-biblica/): Você já ouviu um sermão em que o pastor conta uma história bíblica que você conhece bem — uma que já ouviu muitas vezes — e, de repente, faz uma conexão ou ilustração que você nunca tinha percebido? De repente, você se pega pensando: "Uau, como eu deixei isso passar?"
- [Masculinidade Bíblica: Resgatando o Design de Deus para os Homens](https://g3min.org/masculinidade-biblica-resgatando-o-design-de-deus-para-os-homens/): Hoje em dia, parece que todos estão redefinindo a "masculinidade bíblica", mas a Escritura não está fazendo uma pesquisa de opinião. A definição de masculinidade bíblica nos foi dada nas páginas da Escritura; contudo, muito do que observo neste caos teológico das redes sociais tipicamente opõe o físico ao espiritual, ou faz parecer que o espiritual e o físico não têm nada em comum. Entretanto, quando examinamos a Escritura toda, vemos com clareza que esses dois aspectos da masculinidade bíblica não estão em conflito um com o outro. Como homens, podemos desfrutar de atividades como levantar pesos, praticar tiro e estudar artes marciais — elas são ótimas expressões do físico que Deus nos permite praticar para a Sua glória; contudo, essas atividades sozinhas não definem a masculinidade.
- [Os Dragões Bem-Intencionados: Ministério Pastoral e Confronto Amoroso](https://g3min.org/os-dragoes-bem-intencionados-ministerio-pastoral-e-confronto-amoroso/): "Se amais os que vos amam, qual é a vossa recompensa? Porque até os pecadores amam aos que os amam. Se fizerdes o bem aos que vos fazem o bem, qual é a vossa recompensa? Porque até os pecadores assim fazem." — Lucas 6:32–33
- [Imigração: Uma Perspectiva Bíblica sobre Fronteiras, Leis e Compaixão](https://g3min.org/imigracao-uma-perspectiva-biblica-sobre-fronteiras-leis-e-compaixao/): A imigração é um tema que tem gerado debates acalorados em todo o mundo e, nos Estados Unidos, continua sendo uma questão profundamente complexa. As políticas da administração Trump, incluindo o reforço da fiscalização nas fronteiras e o programa "Permaneça no México", intensificaram ainda mais a discussão. Ao abordar este assunto em uma perspectiva bíblica, é crucial reconhecer que as Escrituras oferecem uma orientação clara sobre como devemos encarar as fronteiras, o papel do governo e o tratamento de estrangeiros. Como cristãos, somos chamados a equilibrar a defesa do estado de direito, o respeito à autoridade dos órgãos governamentais e a demonstração de compaixão por aqueles em necessidade genuína — ao mesmo tempo em que garantimos a integridade das fronteiras nacionais.
- [Nascer da Água e do Espírito](https://g3min.org/nascer-da-agua-e-do-espirito/): Há muito tempo tenho sido questionado sobre a que Jesus se refere em João 3:5, quando responde: "Em verdade, em verdade te digo: quem não nascer da água e do Espírito não pode entrar no reino de Deus." Esse versículo tem sido mal interpretado por muitos quanto aos seus possíveis significados, porém, quando considerado dentro do contexto da passagem e em relação com quem Jesus está falando, creio que podemos chegar a uma interpretação bíblica clara do que Jesus está se referindo. O terceiro capítulo de João começa com uma interação de Cristo com Nicodemos. Compreender quem era Nicodemos é crucial para chegar a uma interpretação precisa desse versículo.
- [Well-Intentioned Dragons](https://g3min.org/well-intentioned-dragons/): “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.” —Luke 6:32–33
- [Dez Hinos de Advento e Natal que Você Talvez Não Conheça, mas Deveria Conhecer](https://g3min.org/dez-hinos-de-advento-e-natal-que-voce-talvez-nao-conheca-mas-deveria-conhecer/): Em muitas igrejas evangélicas, a época do Advento e Natal é marcada por um conjunto familiar e bem-amado de hinos. "Vinde, Fiéis Cristãos", "Ouçam! Os Anjos Cantam" e "Alegria ao Mundo" são justamente apreciados e amplamente cantados. Esses hinos são a playlist do Advento e Natal por gerações e continuam sendo centrais na adoração da igreja durante essa época.
- [Ten Advent and Christmas Hymns You Might Not Know but Should](https://g3min.org/ten-advent-and-christmas-hymns-you-might-not-know-but-should/): For many evangelical churches, the Advent and Christmas season is marked by a familiar and well-loved set of hymns. O Come, All Ye Faithful; Hark! the Herald Angels Sing; and Joy to the World are rightly cherished and widely sung. These hymns have formed the playlist of Advent and Christmas for generations and remain central to the church's worship during this season.
- [Virgindade Perpétua?](https://g3min.org/virgindade-perpetua/): Segundo o evangelho de Mateus, a mãe de Jesus permaneceu virgem até que Ele nascesse (Mateus 1:25). Os cristãos tratam o nascimento virginal como um fundamento por pelo menos duas razões. Primeiro, é essencial para a reivindicação de Jesus ao trono davídico. Segundo, é essencial para sua pessoa divino-humana e, consequentemente, para seu papel como sacrifício pelo pecado.
- [A Alegria Profunda de Maria: Lições do Magnificat](https://g3min.org/a-alegria-profunda-de-maria-licoes-do-magnificat/): É comum observarmos na vida cristã que há muito discurso sobre alegria, mas frequentemente pouca experiência verdadeira. Desejamos ser felizes em Cristo, e com razão. Mas, se formos honestos, o tipo de alegria frequentemente vendido em nossa era evangélica moderna parece fabricado. É uma emoção superficial, uma fina camada de felicidade que tentamos produzir através de músicas atmosféricas, manipulação emocional ou pelo poder do pensamento positivo.
- [The Shepherd’s Sign: The Humble Glory of the Incarnate Lord](https://g3min.org/the-shepherds-sign-the-humble-glory-of-the-incarnate-lord/): As we approach the familiar text of Luke 2—perhaps too familiar to some of us—we must strive to strip away the layers of sentimental varnish that centuries of Christmas cards and pageants have applied to it. We often come to this narrative expecting a soft, pastoral interlude, a quiet moment of "peace on earth" that warms the heart but demands little of the mind or the will. We expect a silent night; we expect a cozy stable.
- [Perpetual Virginity?](https://g3min.org/perpetual-virginity/): According to Matthew’s gospel, Jesus’ mother remained a virgin until He was born (Matt 1:25). Christians treat the virgin birth as a fundamental for at least two reasons. First, it is essential to Jesus’ claim on the Davidic throne. Second, it is essential to His divine-human person, and consequently to His role as a sacrifice for sin.
- [O Natal: A Guerra que Ele nos Ajuda a Vencer](https://g3min.org/o-natal-a-guerra-que-ele-nos-ajuda-a-vencer/): Uma cristologia sólida é o alicerce para uma identidade verdadeiramente santificada pelas Escrituras. Todas as questões sociais que testemunhamos hoje – seja o transgenerismo, o movimento LGBTQ+ ou qualquer outro desafio cultural – derivam de uma incompreensão fundamental da identidade. As pessoas se perguntam: "O que há de errado com o Mundo?". Mas a verdade é que não conseguimos nos consertar, e certamente não podemos consertar uns aos outros, até que saibamos quem Deus é.
- [Mary’s Magnificat: The Joy of Certain Faith](https://g3min.org/marys-magnificat-the-joy-of-certain-faith/): It is a common observation in the Christian life that there is much talk about joy, yet often very little experience of it. We desire to be happy in Christ, and rightly so. But if we are honest, the brand of joy often peddled in our modern evangelical age feels manufactured. It is a surface-level emotion, a thin veneer of happiness that we attempt to work up through atmospheric music, emotional manipulation, or the power of positive thinking.

- [Facing the Cross](https://g3min.org/library-resources/facing-the-cross/): Advent guides abound, but I have a harder time finding guides for Holy Week—Palm Sunday through Resurrection Day—especially ones that don't contain images of Christ. So I made one, and I want to share it with you today.
- [Tune My Heart Personal Journal](https://g3min.org/library-resources/tune-my-heart-personal-journal/): This personal journal contains the 5-Day Bible Narrative Reading Plan, catechism, and Bible memory, along with the three reflection questions for each day's reading and room to write responses. This is idea for personal devotion, or for children as they prepare answers for later family discussion.
- [5-Day Bible Narrative Reading Plan](https://g3min.org/library-resources/52-week-tune-my-heart-catechism-2/): The goal of this Bible narratives reading guide is to provide a resource that focuses on the narratives and poetry of Scripture. Scott Aniol has created a 52-week Bible reading plan that focuses only on the narratives of Scripture, along with all of the psalms and proverbs. Further, the plan schedules readings for five days per week, giving readers the weekend to catch up if they fall behind.
- [Advent Guide for Homeschool Morning Time or Family Worship](https://g3min.org/library-resources/advent-guide-for-homeschool-morning-time-or-family-worship/): This 10-day Advent Guide was made specifically with busy families in mind. Amid extra church activities, Christmas parties, recitals, rehearsals, and travel, it’s hard to finish a 4-week or 25-day advent guide. Enter this guide, which focuses mainly on worship—instead of paper crafts and busywork.
- [Psalms and Hymns to the Living God](https://g3min.org/library-resources/hymnal/): This book of psalms and hymns is an attempt to collect some of the best congregational songs available in the English language. It contains metrical versions of all 150 psalms (194 settings) plus 282 hymns.
- [Living Heritage](https://g3min.org/library-resources/homeschool/): Have you ever wondered how you could possibly homeschool all your children at the same time? Have you ever felt a tension between discipleship and academics? Have you ever wanted to read your children's school books because they're so engaging? Have you ever longed for a beautiful, simple, thorough, and theologically-sound curriculum that will not bow to the spirit of the age?

- [52 Week Tune My Heart Catechism](https://g3min.org/library-resources/52-week-tune-my-heart-catechism/): The Tune My Heart Catechism has deep roots in the traditions of Christians who have gone before. It is based on historic catechisms, including the Heidelberg catechism, the Westminster catechism, Benjamin Keach’s catechism, and Charles Spurgeon’s catechism. Since it has 52 questions, it is manageable to teach children and then regularly review through the years, allowing families to focus on one question per week and progress through the catechism every year. The catechism covers the most significant doctrinal issues, broad enough so that really any evangelical Christian with any denominational or eschatological position can use it (particular denominations can supplement this with their own specific Questions and Answers). It helps teach core doctrines but also is personal, devotional, and addresses the heart.

- [Sermon on the Mount Bible Study](https://g3min.org/library-resources/sermon-on-the-mount-bible-study/): This study of the Sermon on the Mount was written specifically for small groups, though it could certainly be adapted to fit other needs. It would be best for the teacher to use the comments, outlines, and discussion questions in these lessons as a way to carefully prepare the lesson beforehand. During the Bible study, teachers may want to have these notes on hand, but they are not intended for group participants.
- [Biblical Apologetics Study](https://g3min.org/library-resources/biblical-apologetics-study/): All Christians should be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks for the reason for their hope in Jesus Christ. Of course, for some Christians this will be a very special ministry calling, but all Christians should be able to explain what they believe, why they believe it, why others should believe it, and why contradictory systems are inadequate.

- [Citizens and Exiles](https://g3min.org/library-resources/citizens-and-exiles/): Conservative Christians have long been charged with being too critical of culture, too separated, and too uninvolved in cultural engagement. In contrast to what many evangelicals considered the “Christ Against Culture” posture of conservative Christians, the dominant perspective that has emerged and even come to be described by Russell Moore as “evangelical consensus” is cultural transformationalism, often described as Neo-Kuyperianism or Neo-Calvinism. Although this perspective has characterized different traditions and has taken a variety of forms, several key underlying theological ideas remain consistent.
- [Decent and Orderly Corporate Worship](https://g3min.org/library-resources/orderly-worship/): “Our church’s worship is pretty formal, but I prefer Holy Spirit-led worship.” Such was the comment I overheard recently by a young evangelical describing his church’s worship service, illustrating a very common perception by many evangelicals today—if the Holy Spirit actively works in worship, the results will be something extraordinary, an experience “quenched” by too much form and order. A common perception, to be sure, but how grounded in Scripture is this expectation concerning the nature and purpose of corporate worship?

- [Radical Grace](https://g3min.org/journal_article/radical-grace/): Jesus often used the metaphor of fruit-bearing as a way of distinguishing between true and false believers. He did this with regard to the parable of the soils in which only the fourth soil produced fruit (Matt 13:23; Mark 4:20; Luke 8:15); he did this with regard to trees and their fruit (Matt 7:15–20; 12:33; Luke 6:43–45); and he did this when describing the fruit that remains because of its connection to the vine (John 15:2, 5, 8, 16). It is clear when considering passages like these that Jesus expected his children to bear fruit, i.e., to persevere in the faith.
