The Good Stuff

Welcome to "the good stuff" a collection of things I've discovered via the interwebs. It usually includes articles, books, movies, television shows, videos, or podcasts that I've enjoyed or found interesting. I've been doing a lot of reading lately, so there are a few links that include books. 

Atomic Habits // James Clear
Probably the best book I've read so far in 2019, and I'm not exaggerating. This book has been immensely helpful in navigating creating good habits and stopping bad ones in my life. It's amazing to think that God designed us to create habits in a certain way and that we can actually use self-control in creating an environment conducive to good habits. 

The Next Right Thing // Emily P. Freeman
One of my favorite authors wrote this book prompted by her podcast by the same title. It's a soulful way of thinking through life's big decisions. I've been savoring this one, trying to read it slowly and enjoy every chapter. Highly recommend. 

How R.C. Sproul Blessed the Church by Preaching the Curse // Tim Challies
Tim Challies dissects one of R.C. Sproul's most popular sermons. I appreciated Tim Challies analysis of the sermon, and it encouraged me to want to listen to the whole thing. 

Move Over, Sex and Drugs, Ease is the New Vice // Jen Pollock Michel
Surprising connection with how the desire for ease is affecting our daily lives. 

Reaching the Unreached // Reality Santa Barbara
A speaker shared this video at a recent student conference, and I thought it was masterful in highlighting the need to reach the unreached in a cinematic way.
