Three notable articles I read this week:

Russell Moore – Why porn kills sex. “Pornography is not just immorality; it’s occultism.”

Micah Fries – Four reasons you need weekly sermon evaluation. Micah gives practical advice and a free template as well.

Florida Baptists – Sale of Baptist building to impact the nations. “A sacrificial investment made by Florida Baptists nearly six decades ago will reap a far-reaching global missions impact this year as the State Board of Missions approved a multi-million dollar contract to sell the Baptist Building property in Jacksonville.”

Three people worth following:

 Every leader needs a mentor. These three leaders are key mentors in my life. I am deeply indebted to them for their investment in my life. You will benefit from their wisdom by following them.

Chuck Lawless. Chuck is dean and vice-president at Southeastern Seminary in Wake Forest, NC, where he also serves as professor of evangelism and missions. You can connect with him through his website or on Twitter.

Bryant Wright. Bryant is the senior pastor of Johnson Ferry Baptist Church in Atlanta. He also leads Right from the Heart Ministries. You can connect with him via Twitter.

Paul Chitwood. Paul is the executive director of the Kentucky Baptist Convention. You can follow him on Twitter and through his website.
