Tim Brister and I have only been in the same room once (St. Louis in the fall of 2008) but I really appreciate the work he does on his blog and have enjoyed our interactions over the phone and through Twitter - plus, he shares an appreciation for the Alabama Crimson Tide, so he's half a step away from sainthood.
So I'd be crazier than Mike Gundy (man, that video never gets old) to not pass along a series of resources that Tim has put together called A Gospel-Centered Reader. Whether it's for your personal use or help in leading a group of people, you need to put this to good use:
