Francis’ time as pope has come to an end and already many are attempting to define his legacy. Was he a reformer? Was he a progressive? Was he an apostate? Perspectives are wildly varied with some honoring him as the greatest pope of modern times and some dishonoring him as a disgrace to the office.See AlsoA La Carte (April 22)The People’s Pope, The Man of the YearThe Humble Pope

Will You Be a Pillar?

How do we lead in a culture shaped by performance, individualism, and platform?
Platforms to Pillars by cultural commentator Mark Sayers offers a biblical alternative to the platform mentality that dominates our society. Drawing from the ancient world, Sayers challenges Christians to become pillars—people who provide strength and support for others, who live with character and virtue, and who partner with God to advance His kingdom.
This book is a needed call to reject the lure of self-promotion and rediscover the freedom of belonging to God. #Sponsored
