24: Substantive Stories | Thoughts for Young Men by J.C. Ryle

J. C. Ryle’s Thoughts For Young Men is an important and accessible work that’s valuable for everyone. Not just the young and not just the men. And though the material in TFYM is over 130 years old, it is timeless in its wisdom and advice. If you are trying to live a life of meaning and one that honors God and takes the Bible seriously, this is a book that is well worth your time.

Substance Shoutouts:

Philip- Superman Smashes the Klan on Amazon | Hoopla

This recent DC Comics collection adapts and modernizes the 1946 Adventures of Superman radio show story arc- “The Clan of the Fiery Cross.” It’s a wonderful book for kids 8 and over and any adults who read it will find a lot to enjoy as well! 2020 Harvey Award winner for Best Children or Young Adult Book.

Vincent - Mike Winger Bible Thinker

Mike Winger Bible Thinker YouTube channel is a good source if you’re looking for material on apologetics, religions, cults, and various spiritual and doctrinal teachings. This is not a full fledged endorsement of everything he’s put out but I appreciate his work.

Trevor - Pantsuit Politics

Pantsuit Politics does political discussion with kindness instead of yelling, and uses that level-headed approach to carefully consider real objections. Featuring a host from a conservative background and another from a liberal standpoint, it’s a low stress podcast for political engagement. This episode they discuss why they are voting for Joe Biden and not just against Donald Trump.
