Likes irony and tech. Has been forced to deal with gender issues in STEM. Favourite label: Christ's person - with an emphasis on the apostrophe of possession.
@AriLamm "meditate" not "read". given they didnt have the same easy access to scolls we do that word has a different weight. memorising and just quietly chewing over words is kind of different and more life changing than just reading?
@mbird12@DrewPavlou I went on the last John Dixon trip to Israel. While I loved it, when he first started in with his talks (which were all brilliant) I felt so sickened because I never realised how political the world J was emeshed in. Now I'm kind of grateful.
The internet is the modern day Tower of Babel. And the current destruction of truth is the modern day splitting us into languages. Blessed be those who speak in tongues.
@TexasLucha@mbird12 You have wrong information. I left the house every day going for walks with a friend and getting coffee or lunch from outside access to shops and outside set ups. Police might move you on if you sat somewhere obvious but no one wanted to do paperwork if they didn't have to.
@Eric_Conn It would be good if people did more ancient history as there is a real mix of good and bad in all of them. Jesus family tree has a murderer and a prostitute. We should be very encouraged how much God loves us :)
@aimeebyrdPYW True for pastors wives too. One way I can serve them is very carefully NOT needing anything from them. This is why ministries to pastors wives are so important like Paracaleo etc
@mattaroney@simeonzahl Intellectualisingcreates distance. Love that God has more than once said to just be silent and know him. And Jesus called for the little children.
Never mind that God didn't even want Israel to have a king.
Never mind that Christ refused all temporal power.
Never mind that Christ said HIS kingdom was not of this world.
When Christians seek to hold Caesar's sword alongside the Cross, it's always a denial of Christ.
@KaitlynSchiess That kind of teaching is really toxic to people with depression. I only realized really late that God was about redeeming. So grateful He is like that.
