    Grieving the sudden loss of our dear brother, Dr. Voddie Baucham (age 56), due to an emergency medical incident. His gain is our loss. Please pray for his wife, Bridget, and their 9 children. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.

    I had the privilege of preaching yesterday three times for Dr. John MacArthur at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles. Between the morning services, I was given an opportunity to rest briefly in Dr. MacArthur’s office (photo 1). About 6,000 people attend one of the two morning

    This is Mary, writing a post behind my husband’s back. Griffin came up and said to Joe, “Dr. Beeke, can you pray for my dad?” So they stepped into the pastor’s office and beseeched the Lord to take care of his dad, Dustin, who had had a heart attack at church that afternoon,

    Mary here, with an update. Joel is still tired but gaining strength. I feel all better. The nurse has told us we are not contagious anymore. We thank God, and thank you for all the love and care we have received. Isaiah 41:10.

    This is Mary, hijacking my husband's Twitter. People ask me sometimes how my husband gets so much work done, and part of the answer is that he takes little naps. Here he was on Sunday, enjoying holding our little granddaughter. It was so relaxing that they both fell asleep.

    Today is a special birthday for me to reach, as I am now as old as my father was when he passed away suddenly in the pulpit from a massive heart attack at the age of 72 some 31 years ago. He used to call me every Monday morning to ask how the sermons went on the Lord’s Day. I

    This is Mary hijacking my husband's facebook page for a day. Seventy-one years ago today, a very special person came into this world. He was named Joel Beeke, and God had a plan for him. God saved, called, and equipped him to preach, teach, and write--to tell sinners about the
