Pastor says ‘Quit Whining. Change Your Bean Patch’

"You can change the city council. You can change the school board. You can make a difference right where you are. You can affect your schools; you can affect your sports teams. You have the ability to affect your Kiwanis, your rotary. Change your bean patch. Quit whining," McCoy challenged. McCoy says the ultimate goal is to rebuild the foundation of America along the lines of Psalm 11:3.

W. SCOTT LAMB: James Montgomery Boice on ‘Two Cities, Two Loves’

Two Cities, Two Loves: Christian Responsibility in a Crumbling Culture (InterVarsity Press, 1996) celebrates its 20th year anniversary this year. The material has aged well, as Boice in his trademark fashion depended mostly on explaining and applying the Bible itself. It really is a fantastic book, one of the best books on the topic. If I were the publisher, I would consider re-releasing the book on its anniversary. Perhaps Senator Ben Sasse would consider writing a foreword, for two reasons. First, his own career embodies so much of what Boice puts forth in this book. Second, Sasse was working alongside Boice in 1996, as the Executive Director of the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals.
