A bad culture will consistently undermine an amazing mission, vision and strategy. https://t.co/3copqLb3wW via @cnieuwhof

Today we remember the thousands summoned to serve on battlefields from which they did not return. The wars may be over, but some continue to fight a war that rages within the mind. @IamDocMartin shares the hope and help from God to regain #mentalhealth.

Once again, the Army has taken me to a new place I never thought I would get to see. Rhode Island is beautiful! I am grateful for the warm reception by the Soldiers during a productive long weekend.

@BadSermons You know all those NT prophecies about the church falling into apostasy? Yeah, they dont seem quite so far fetched (or quite so distant) after listening to stuff like this. 🤦‍♂️

[Joe Martin, D.Min., BCPC @IamDocMartin]

Jesus has risen! What a wonderful day in God’s house as we worshipped our Lord together! Praise God!

[Liberty Baptist Church of Holly Ridge @LBCHollyRidge]

We celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord with passionate praise and a challenging sermon! Our ensemble provided an uplifting song, and the congregation joyfully worshipped.

Jesus arose from the dead, and He is alive!

I serve a risen Saviour, He's in the world today
I know that He is living, whatever men may say
I see His hand of mercy, I hear His voice of cheer
And just the time I need Him He's always near

@SkinnyLunger @BadSermons There’s a pervasive theme of victimhood for many preachers. Beyond these clips, a review of preachers’ body of work shows they have more to say about problems, burdens, struggle, etc as though the Spirit has no effect. That downward spiral changes lives, and not for the better.

@FundyBB Critical thinking is dead, and this must be its funeral.

[Joe Martin, D.Min., BCPC @IamDocMartin]

@PastorNealatMBC @FundyBB Better warm up those snaps for Sunday

[Joe Martin, D.Min., BCPC @IamDocMartin]

Insightful article that accounts for the background and supplies sound interpretation for Jesus becoming sin for us.

Great message from my friend who preached for us on Sunday night. I was encouraged by the insights of this text.

[Liberty Baptist Church of Holly Ridge @LBCHollyRidge]

Do you ever struggle with someone’s low opinion of you? Join Tom Enman, a retired pastor, as he teaches us how to cling to God’s compassionate words for us that assure us that his opinion of us is that of love.

@FundyBB Hey-men brother 🤣

[Joe Martin, D.Min., BCPC @IamDocMartin]

@FundyBB I’ll try harder… maybe 🤔 😂

[Joe Martin, D.Min., BCPC @IamDocMartin]

@davidgreen1517 @KevinSMayfield Great article! I appreciate the insight shared. Thank you!

[Joe Martin, D.Min., BCPC @IamDocMartin]

What if churches had nutrition labels? Image reviewing and reporting the contents of the “sheep food” being served. Labels showing fillers and additives like unbiblical traditions, preferences, etc. would show you the cheap and unsatisfying churches to avoid. #YouAreWhatYouEat

We enjoyed a great service at Big Bear Baptist Church! We’ll be distributing scriptural literature and invitations to church during the week. The Elwart family is right where they belong, greeting folks with the joy of the Lord. We are blessed to be able to help!
