Gospel Light on "Black Friday"

We agree with Prof. Thomas, that "Black Friday" is incomprehensible to us and our usual commentary would sound something like Ephesians 5:5.

Yet, while we hesitate to encourage the voracious consumerism (= idolatry) today, there are a number of exceedingly helpful Christian works presently on-sale and we would be remiss not to point them out.

Several on-line Christian booksellers are having special deals this weekend, including:

  1. ah Dr. Thomas:

  2. I loved that as well. Maybe we'll do a series on Christmas as we get into December... why it has little to do with the Lord Jesus, but I like the tree and lights.
