John Piper: Coronavirus and Christ
I love John Piper! I cut my young, theological teeth on his books and sermons. He published a brief letter on the Coronavirus:

Paul Tripp: Five Thoughts from Quarantine
Paul Tripp is an author, counselor, and speaker who really knows how to apply the gospel to everyday life. He once came to Seven Rivers for a marriage conference. His book, New Morning Mercies is one of the best devotionals I have read in recent years. Last week he posted a helpful reflection called "Five Thoughts from Quarantine".

Jackie Hill Perry: Eyes Like Judas
While preparing for last week's sermon on Judas, I discovered this video from artist, Jackie Hill Perry. It was too intense to put in the virtual service (because of little children watching), but it is really good and very powerful! I love the artistry involved, both the spoken word poetry and the cinematography.
Andy Crouch Podcast: Cultivated
I'm not much of a podcast listener, but Chad Townsley is, and he highly recommends the show "Cultivated". Author Andy Crouch interviews Christian thinkers on the intersection of faith and work. He also has a book on the same topic called Culture Making: Recovering Our Creative Calling.
