This Sunday was the first of a pair of what will be occasional Bible-character studies.   We looked at the life of Eve this morning.  That’s right, Eve: first lady, fruit lady.  Eve.  Turns out our common mother has a lot to teach us.  Who knew?  Never underestimate mothers.

Many people have trouble finding time to read good books, or perhaps they don’t know what books are good and worth spending their time on.   Here are a some suggestions and opportunities.

This month only ChristianAudio.com is offering Desiring God, by John Piper for free.  This is one of the most important theological and spiritual Christian books of the 20th century.   Desiring God at ChristianAudio.com.  You’ll also find that all of John Piper’s books are available for $5.00 each this month only: John Piper sale.

Also, for the next week, Christian Counseling and Education Foundation (CCEF) is offering the CCEF Library of Classics for just $99.  Savings of 52%.  And probably more valuable than gold.

DesiringGod and CCEF are a few positive ministries that I’ve really benefited from.  -david
