Welcome back everyone!  I already said my “Merry Christmas,” so I guess this is “Happy New Year!”  Anyhow, we know that a lot of people are having a bit of a tough time getting back into work, school, etc. after the Christmas break, so I’ll just ease us back into the Weekly Links…

• I know how much our church enjoys the writing of Paul Tripp, which I wholeheartedly understand and appreciate.  I also know that y’all seem to enjoy New Year’s resolutions…I never got that part.  But regardless, Mr. Tripp has a new article over at Desiring God that I think we’ll all love: Trading One Dramatic Resolution for 10,000 Little Ones. Enjoy!  (WEB)
• Elder Mike Chon has recently been going through a series on Biblical decision-making. So this article from GTY on Decision Making to the Glory of God was both good and well-timed!  (WEB)
• The free audio book from ChristianAudio for the month of January is Jerry Bridges’ The Pursuit of Holiness.  If you haven’t been in the habit of taking advantage of their free monthly book, this would be a great time to start!
• Ligonier recently did a Q&A entitled “Ask RC Live.” If you’ve enjoyed RC Sproul’s material in the past, then I think you’ll enjoy this as well. (VIDEO)
• This is a older article, but it’s a good one.  One of the authors of The Trellis and the Vine discusses various ways in which the “average” church goer has ministerial duties in “The Ministry of the Pew.” (WEB)
• And last but not least, I thought this small devotional by John Stott is a great way to start the new year, as he reflects on “Thoughtful, Total Commitment.” (WEB)

See you Sunday!
