@JavaCodeMonkey @mattpat1 @ThabitiAnyabwil However, I think it is shortsighted to believe that relational and systematic change are mutually exclusive. Arguing for systematic reform or transformation in no way negates relational evangelism or discipleship, but ignoring the need for it does…#my2cents

@JavaCodeMonkey @mattpat1 @ThabitiAnyabwil I hear the relational argument quite a lot, and I do agree that the gospel is relational and that there must be a relational aspect of the solution…

Modern society has no tools for admitting or dealing with the reality of how messed up human beings are.

Trust in the Lord means you have come to understand that you don’t have to shoulder the deepest burdens of life alone.

[Bear Wallenburg @BearWallenburg]

Dang bud, I’m right in the middle of this exact trajectory. Hopefully I’ll skip wasting a handful of years here...

My 20s - There’s so much wrong. I’m going to change the world!

My 30s - There’s so much wrong. I’m going to change the church!

My 40s - There’s so much wrong. I need to work on me. Spirit, help me change.

““Therefore, you should pray like this: Our Father in heaven, your name be honored as holy. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
Matthew 6:9-10 CSB #surrender #trust #weep #mourn #repeat

[Bear Wallenburg @BearWallenburg]

Honest question here. Does America, specifically the church, but the whole thing too, do we have any idea how to #mourn over how broken things are? Is the only thing we know how to do fight and burn down and point fingers? We gotta change fam. Got to.

[Bear Wallenburg @BearWallenburg]

We have come to settle kindly with compromise of character for the sake of a cause(this has nothing to do with our president, but rather myself and many that I love deeply)... yet Jesus said if there is sin let it aggressively be cut off cause it isn’t worth your soul.

If you are going to advocate for both the vulnerable unborn and the vulnerable born, consider wearing a helmet. For some reason, many people seem suspicious of (if not angered by) a comprehensive life ethic. #WombToTomb

@DanielBorah #rough man. They don’t know!

[Bear Wallenburg @BearWallenburg]

Please! I love you #church. I do. We need to be above this. Our perfectly holy Savior was... #justsayin

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

The demonization and dehumanization of the other side must stop. When professing Christians do it, it is triply wrong.

[Lecrae @lecrae]

Prayer is your superpower.

[Scott Sauls @scottsauls]

We cannot out-sin the grace of God. This being true, we should also not be able to out-sin the grace of the church.

[Jon Tyson @JonTyson]

Whatever you do, someone will criticize, correct, point out the one bit you missed, or highlight someone who did it earlier and better. Do something anyway.

[Lecrae @lecrae]

Whatever we run to at our lowest point is our functional savior. The reality is Yeshua is all we need.
