The distress, darkness, gloom, anguish and the hunger which Isaiah foresaw is still with us—and for exactly the same reason: we’ve pushed God away ... And as a consequence, just like our ancient forebears, we’ve become unstable and insecure and lonely and afraid. (From 2017)
Trueman places the drive for a historically grounded faith and expression of that same faith in the right place: God himself. The wrong driver for any historic grounding of faith and expression would be the tradition-seeking fad that news and online discourse would have us believe is increasingly hoovering up young people. But fads fade. God doesn’t.
Clarity is also an act of love. It refuses to hide behind jargon or intellectual display. Instead, it removes unnecessary obstacles so that people can encounter Christ in the word.
I can’t think of a writer who has summarised the sheer volume of data so helpfully. Firth succinctly and persuasively demonstrates God’s valuing of women and their active participation in his purposes. Both sides of the debate can praise God for ... the way [he] has used many women to save his people.
As you minister the word of God in your church, make it a labour of love. Make time for it. If you’re preaching on Sunday, don’t leave your prep until Saturday. Start on Monday, or better still start the week (or weeks) before. God’s word was never intended to be fast food. Take it slow and savour the flavours.

Single Ever After left me with a greater appreciation of singleness and its place in God’s purposes. I’d love to see it widely read in our churches by married and single Christians alike. It gives us good reason to value singleness—and to think more carefully about how we speak and act towards those who are single.
Visiting the ’Most Read’ and ’Now Trending articles’ at our website kicks off a fertile conversation with Joseph Hewitt.
The news often leaves me feeling little hope for the future. But it’s also the case that, before starting work on Wednesday September 16, employees across Australia attended a ‘morning briefing’ about why they should, and how they could, bring peace to their workplaces.
I have been involved with WRF for over a decade, and it has broadened my understanding of God’s global work and connected me to believers around the world. I am thankful for many ways I have learned and been encouraged, and for opportunities to share and serve.
