@howertonjosh Pastor. It was fantastic and helpful and full of Bible-wisdom…. Keep making it plain.

[BCoop @BCooP]

Orienting the gathering PRIMARILY to the seeker… but the opposite is also a mistake (orienting the gathering PRIMARILY towards the Saint)…. Orienting the gathering VERTICALLY (towards God) gives both Seeker/Saint what they both need!

[Frank Turek @DrFrankTurek]

What is a fundamental mistake of the seeker-sensitive movement in the American Church?

[BCoop @BCooP]

Awesome. Just awesome.

Case Keenum has been in the NFL since 2012. Until Monday night, his two kids had never seen him play a game.

Not one. Not ever.

Here is what he said before kickoff.

"It means everything. It's incredible because we always say 'Keenum's can do hard things.' So we'll do some hard things tonight. And hopefully I can show them tonight how it's done."

He is 38 years old. He was the third quarterback on the Chicago Bears depth chart.

Caleb Williams was ruled out. Backup Tyson Bagent went into concussion protocol. So the job fell to the guy nobody expected to take another snap in his life.

It had been 1,009 days since Case Keenum started a regular season NFL game. The last one was Christmas Eve of 2023 with the Houston Texans.

His son Kyler was born in November of 2019. His daughter Cadence was born in April of 2021.

Which means Case Keenum has been an NFL quarterback for every single day that either of his children has been alive, and neither one of them had ever seen him play a game. Cadence was two years old the last time he started one.

He arrived at Soldier Field carrying what looked like a paper sack, dressed like a man on his way to a parent teacher conference. The internet had a wonderful time with it. Somebody said his wife must have packed him a lunch.

That wife is Kimberly. The family calls her the logistical ninja, because she is the one who has packed and unpacked their whole life through the Houston Texans, the Rams, the Minnesota Vikings, the Denver Broncos, Washington, the Cleveland Browns, the Buffalo Bills, Houston again, and now the Chicago Bears.

This is also the man who threw for 19,217 yards at Houston, which is still the most in the history of college football, and then went undrafted.

Then the game started.

24 of 34. 247 yards. Two touchdowns. No interceptions. Not sacked one time.

Eight yards to Luther Burden III in the first quarter. Forty one yards to Kalif Raymond in the third. Then in the fourth he kept it himself and walked it in from a yard out.

Three touchdowns from a third string quarterback.

Chicago Bears 27, Philadelphia Eagles 7.

When it ended he walked off hyping up the crowd in the north end zone, and the whole stadium stood up for him.

And then came the part nobody could have written.

Keenum went out to do his postgame interview on the SportsCenter set. His daughter came with him. Five years old, out on that stage next to her dad, waving at a stadium full of Chicago Bears fans who were still standing there cheering for him.

Fourteen years of practice squads and backup jobs and new cities and moving trucks.

He said it himself when he signed here. More than knowing how to get hit, he knows how to get back up.

The first NFL game his kids ever got to watch, their dad won it, and he scored three times doing it.

Keenums can do hard things.

16 years of marriage to Cory, 4 amazing kids, and a shared calling that brings us so much joy every single day. God has been so faithful to our family.

Happy Anniversary!

Let that man know that's gonna feel like A/C to the boys that have been practicing in Clemson... ❄️❄️❄️

[Chapel Fowler @chapelfowler]

LSU coach Lane Kiffin on the heat in Baton Rouge: "The weather's on our side. We're used to training in this -- the opponent's gotta come in and play in this." Kickoff temps for tonight's Clemson game should be around 80 degrees with a "real feel" of 89 degrees

An amazing week!!!

[Clayton King @Clayton_king]

Our church baptized 334 people on Sunday.

Then we watched 350+ students publicly respond to the gospel Wednesday night.

Media may not report it but we’re in a SPIRITUAL AWAKENING.

Pray. Be kind and bold. Talk about Jesus.

@avrilbradley23 Not my experience. But stay behind your anon avatar and keep up the good work.

Post-Denominational… orthodox… widely evangelical… this has been the direction for decades…

A convergence of Word & Spirit…

Elevation of Christ Alone instead of tertiary dogmas….

[Ryan Burge 📊 @ryanburge]

In 1972, 22% of all Protestants were Methodists.
Today, it's 8%.

Baptists have gone from 32% to 29%
Lutherans fell from 14% to 8%
Presbyterians were 8%. Now 5%.

The biggest gainer? Non-denominationals.

The same size as Episcopalians in 1972.
Now the largest of all.

In the Bible, hope is not wishful thinking or uncertain desire; it is the confident expectation and joyful assurance of future good based on God's character and promises. @BCooP
