I read two very helpful articles today that I thought I would pass along to you. The first is from Charles Colson who invites us to be somewhat introspective about the choices we would make if faced with similar circumstances as the Palins.

One of my favorite magazines is Tabletalk which is published by Ligonier Ministries . You can read the latest issue online HERE . Each issue is filled with great articles and a month's worth of daily Bible readings and commentary. I highly recommend Tabletalk as a resource for sharpening your...
