We don't celebrate it American style (sorry kids, no days off from school), and instead of showing football on the English-Canadian channels, they have decided to serve a giant helping of this (if we choose to watch English TV). At the very least...
I caught this over at the Sovereign Grace Blog (By CJ Mahaney ) Lazy? Not me. I’m busy. Up early, up late. My schedule is filled from beginning to end. I love what I do and I love getting stuff done. I attack a daily to-do list with the same intensity...
We've had 3 baptisms over the last two weeks. The first two were two weeks ago,Sunday afternoon, at a nearby lake. Around 150 people showed up! Sara and Audrey were both baptized by their fathers; Jean and Stephane. The third was last week during...

The story of one girl: [a few months ago at "Le Lounge"] "I'm an atheist" , she said during her first visit to "Le Lounge". She had a couple of friends there and liked the atmosphere. The God part? Well, she was curious...
"Prayer is much, much, much, much more important than you realize. And your prayer life is much, much, much, much weaker than you are willing to admit." -The last words of the Dwell Conference for urban church planting; spoken by Tim Keller...
I (Rob) recently read the book The Heavenly Man with some provocative statements about my own comfortable walk with Christ. pp. 311-313 Sometimes Western visitors come to China and ask the house church leaders what seminary they attended. We reply, jokingly...
Two VERY different men who have been greatly used by God. Enjoy.
Recently, Chuck Colson (founder of Prison Fellowship Ministries and BreakPoint ), a man who has been greatly used by God and that I greatly respect and admire, published this article concerning Quebec. To begin, I greatly appreciate Chuck Colson and his...
The Pyro Maniacs devote some space each weekend to highlights from The Spurgeon Archive. The following excerpt is from "Unto You, Young Men," a sermon on 1 John 2:14 , preached Wednesday evening, May 13th, 1868, at Westminster Chapel, London...
