@TheNotoriousRDS It’s similar to when I first used “excité” in French. Big no-no

[Country Club Calvinist 👑 @ClubCalvinist]

Today I learned that “opgewonden” in Dutch has a sexual connotation (i.e., “aroused”) whereas it just means generically “excited” in Afrikaans.

So now my coworker thinks our next work trip might be a little more than just cordial. 😑

Today’s residence is one of the most beautiful Italianate homes in Kalorama and hosts a representative from one of the world’s poorest countries: Zambia 🇿🇲

[Country Club Calvinist 👑 @ClubCalvinist]

Another iconic neighborhood residence, that of the French ambassador and the largest single-family home in Kalorama.

A fitting abode for the representative from America’s oldest ally. 🇫🇷🇺🇸

In honor of our church’s capital campaign, here’s the early 1870s ledger for the pledges raised to build our current church.

The entry for $100 from a certain James Goddard would roughly equal $2,500 today.

@LutheranAnswers He was a mason. A Freemason. Who hid a treasure.

He’s telling me to steal the Declaration of Independence!!

Where are all the relics from Jesus’ carpentry? Like a Holy Armoire or the Pull Saw of Righteousness?

@benryanwriter 7 is the correct answer. Wilmington 🔝

Church like a Presbyterian. Brunch like an Episcopalian.

Greetings from good ol’ Boston!

@RyanHurst171 @reformed_corner You’re right. There’s more to the story. A desire to continue segregation was also in play.

@BroPresby @KnoxiteTheocrat Fine. But I will take this as a criticism of RZ. As I said, we don’t think about you people. I just run the church pickleball league.

[Country Club Calvinist 👑 @ClubCalvinist]

@BroPresby @KnoxiteTheocrat Interesting. And I apologize for not reading the original sources discussing the distinction between the RPCNA and the RPCGS. I must’ve been busy existing in society.

[Country Club Calvinist 👑 @ClubCalvinist]

@BroPresby @KnoxiteTheocrat If you claim to be a descendant of the Covenanters, why not RPCNA? They are the original and oldest in the country. I’m headed there tomorrow.

@rylan_mayatt @The_Mr_Bama But can we muster the courage

[Country Club Calvinist 👑 @ClubCalvinist]

@BroPresby @KnoxiteTheocrat RZ is the only person in my denomination who cares who you people are. Most of us never think about you. The PCUSA lives in your minds rent free because it gives you a boogeyman to compare yourselves against.

[Country Club Calvinist 👑 @ClubCalvinist]

@JaneAusten4ever You should start yet another denomination, then. That’ll solve everything! And then when that one fails, start a new one!

[Country Club Calvinist 👑 @ClubCalvinist]

Well then that’s all I need to hear that hopefully you don’t hate me who remains in spite of everything you cite but remains out of a commitment to my church and my family and my God. But spouting vitriol against us shows you don’t actually care about our souls, you just want to condemn us under your own authority

[Country Club Calvinist 👑 @ClubCalvinist]

@Onionknight64 @KnoxiteTheocrat So that justifies hatred? There’s a difference between that and criticism, I hope you know.

@koji1400 @JoshuaBarzon I’m a Bruges man myself

@KJP Didn’t know it had caught fire! Glad it’s back up and running for the summer
