They call it Labor Day because on Tuesday we all had to work twice as hard to catch up. Take a few minutes to pause and do some clicking:

• Churches need to stop taking attendance. Immediately. This means you.
• The marketing of the new MEV Bible translation may leave many feeling it's something other than what it is.
• Shane Claiborne has a quick debrief on his trip to Ferguson, Missouri...
• ...While in a much longer piece, Jamie Wright debriefs her night undercover in Southeast Asia following investigators trying to get freedom for girls being trafficked in the sex trade.
• Essay of the Week: People dress "sloppy" for church. “It’s like some people decided to stop mowing the lawn and then decided to come to church.”
• A look at Britain as a "Global Exporter of Terrorism." Sample: "...the British elites don't care so much about their own civilization ...radical Muslims have been allowed and even encouraged to build a parallel society within this officially Christian nation."
