Doesn't mean that all things are good. It also doesn't mean that in the process of dealing with things we put on the 'everything is going to be all right' mask either. I hope we teaching and modeling for students this aspect of life as well. God does work all things out for good. Doesn’t mean that all things are good.

Where is the belief that God works "in spite" of humans (Zondervan)and their possible mistakes??? Maybe we all need to take another look at Romans 8:28 and actually put into practice what we teach our students..... I hate to say it but where is the trust in “God” over all things that happen???

Now it is just a brand for crappy materials to be published under. So sad. Whatever Marko decides, we will be behind him.

Yep, Zondervan shot themselves in the foot with this move. And how on earth could the NYWC be even "more relevant, inspirational, and impactful" than it was already. It was such a top-notch conference. I am scared to think what it will look like now. *sigh* Truly heartbreaking. Yep, Zondervan shot themselves in the foot with this move.
