As China sides with Russia on the war in Ukraine, and the U.S. and NATO are united behind Ukraine, this looks more and more like WW3.

Pastors, find time for yourself.

[Carey Nieuwhof @cnieuwhof]

Doctors and pastors are the only professions that people will praise you for abusing yourself, being available 24 hours a day, because you're always helping somebody. @iammiketodd

@Reynolds_Live Social Security? Medicare? If that socialism, then we've been socialist for decades.

@justinsytsma Yet another reason I'll never be a Baptist

@Reynolds_Live Maybe for a season, but not for long. Take it from a hospice chaplain. Faith communities matter.

[Greg Crofford @CroffordGregory]

@Reynolds_Live Can you give an example of something you did that was jerky that at the time gained you deserved pushback, though you called it persecution instead? Because there IS the last Beatitude, after all.

@FrJarelRB A test to see if people still read the OT?

[Greg Crofford @CroffordGregory]

@millennialjake My guess is you attended one?

There's a puritan in us all—the need to punish ourselves or someone else for not living up to a standard.

Learn to breathe in and breathe out the kindness and grace of God.

[Greg Crofford @CroffordGregory]

A year of hospice chaplaincy has shown (to my surprise) just how few self-described Christian families are closely tied to a community of faith.

Jesus proclaimed the coming of the kingdom, but also demonstrated the kingdom through healing, feeding, and serving. Proclamation and demonstration are not at odds or in competition with one another. Both are necessary expressions of what it means to live as missional people.

Yesterday an elderly man called the church office. He needed someone to pray for his wife who is in the hospital with "the virus."

I asked him her name and after a long pause he said, "I'm sorry, I can't remember it. We've been married for 71 years." 1/

Just the way it should be

I've been thinking about love.

@drantbradley In my experience, many who speak against abortion also care for the poor, the sick, and are generous to the needy and hungry. But it's easier to create this caricature of the anti-abortion individual rather than portray them in a more nuanced way.
