Since 2000, over 380 Southern Baptist leaders have been convicted of sex crimes involving more than 700 victims all while SBC leaders covered for abusers and silenced survivors.

But women preaching and pastoring is the real problem? What a joke.

[Kim W. Chafee @RevKimWChafee]

The SBC (Southern Baptist Convention) is a denomination created so that slave owners could become missionaries. Their very foundation, the root of the entire system, is vile. And now they switch their focus to controlling women. And all the while, they ignore the rampant sexual abuse within their churches. Alas, that too, is part of their disrespect and mistreatment of God's daughters.

The first passage of the Mohler amendment, further limiting the roles that women are "allowed" to serve in within SBC churches, is not surprising. In fact, I believe that what is occurring is a great winnowing. The Holy Spirit is separating the wheat from the chaff, and moving His sheep out and into other churches - churches that more closely follow and resemble Christ. When a church focuses on power for a few (in this case, men), it has left its call to be the Light of the world, exchanging the light of Christ for the power of darkness, and forgetting their own roles as servants.

As sad as this is, God will use it for good. Grace and peace to all who are feeling the call of the Spirit to move on. It is time. Any organization based on a false foundation is bound to fall.

Republicans have been acting as if they no longer needed votes.

So tonight, they didn’t get any.

Jesus didn't come to make beta males into alphas.

He came to make dead men alive.

Donald Trump is now so unpopular that he’s losing elections in OTHER countries.

I wonder if the fall of Rome was this stupid.

It is now estimated that over 7,000 Christians and Alawites were murdered in Syria in the last two days.

I’m speechless. This is a genocide.

[U.S. Senator John Fetterman @SenFettermanPA]

Hamas cowards and rapists starved and kept him underground for over 500 days and murdered his *entire* family.

Other hostages were paraded as propaganda and Palestinians cheered for that depravity.

Where is the collective outrage on college campuses over this?

@PastorTrey05 You mean the Charles Spurgeon-worshipping, "tell me what you believe and I'll tell you why it's heretical" crowd? 😅

They told us Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton couldn’t lead because they were “too emotional.”

Meanwhile, we just watched a level-10 MAGA masculinity crisis unfold live on TV.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.

I don’t want to connect my coffee machine to the wifi network. I don’t want to share the file with OneDrive. I don’t want to download an app to check my car’s fluid levels. I don’t want to scan a QR code to view the restaurant menu. I don’t want to let Google know my location before showing me the search results. I don’t want to include a Teams link on the calendar invite. I don’t want to pay 50 different monthly subscription fees for all my software. I don’t want to upgrade to TurboTax platinum plus audit protection. I don’t want to install the Webex plugin to join the meeting. I don’t want to share my car’s braking data with the actuaries at State Farm. I don’t want to text with your AI chatbot. I don’t want to download the Instagram app to look at your picture. I don’t want to type in my email address to view the content on your company’s website. I don’t want text messages with promo codes. I don’t want to leave your company a five-star Google review in exchange for the chance to win a $20 Starbucks gift card. I don’t want to join your exclusive community in the metaverse. I don’t want AI to help me write my comments on LinkedIn. I don’t even want to be on LinkedIn in the first place.

I just want to pay for a product one time (and only one time), know that it’s going to work flawlessly, press 0 to speak to an operator if I need help, and otherwise be left alone and treated with some small measure of human dignity, if that’s not too much to ask anymore.

Trump's furious because as a Bishop, Budde can move as far she wants diagonally, but as a Russian pawn he can only move one square at a time.
