What a great reminder that everyone needs a family, not just children.

“God sets the lonely in families.”

Timothy is 19-years-old & is looking for a family to adopt him. He’s in Arkansas with Project Zero & has been in the system since he was six. Once he ages out, he’ll be completely alone. He’s hoping for a place to call home for Thanksgiving, Christmas, & beyond. Please share!

@Emokwx You’re not ready to hear about chemtrails from car exhaust.

@maseballard If you could travel back in time would you baptize baby spurgeon?
Hilarious.

@theripsnorter Thank goodness there’s a climate action plan.

I’m getting a lot of hate for this reel. What do you think?

(P.S.: if you say “but we have evidence for dads I believe you have missed the point.)

[Jared Kirk @JaredAKirk]

@adammabry In that case you want Rebel Yell, the biography of Stonewall Jackson as you’ll be driving through his hometown and battlegrounds.

@caesararum This is the content I’m on X for.

Are you safer living next to a nuclear plant than eating 1000 bananas? Or flying cross country repeatedly?

Christian men who major on leading the home, but who miss out on the warm relationship with their kids, are missing the best opportunity to get their kids to Jesus.

[Nancy Pearcey @NancyRPearcey]

An award-winning 35-year longitudinal study asked how parents succeed in passing on their religious convictions.

The study found two surprising results:

First, “having a close bond with one’s father matters
even more than a close relationship with one’s mother.”

In other words, fathers wield influence, whether they want to or not.

Second, the relationship with the father must be warm and close. A father can be a leader of the community, a pillar of the church, a moral exemplar, but if he is perceived as cold and distant, the child will not follow him, will not adopt his spiritual and religious convictions.

Here's the study:

@maseballard @Markins @Awana We’re reading Revelations on the car ride to Krogers….

@IMAO_ Nothing on this platform actually changed my mind about anything until this post.

He won’t release the bodycam video bc it helps one side 99% of the time. Release the video!

[Mass Daily News @MassDailyNews]

🚨 BREAKING: Boston’s DA Kevin Hayden (D) says he will NOT be releasing the body cam footage as it may hinder the prosecution.

This comes after he charged a Boston police officer with manslaughter after an alleged violent carjacker was shot and killed by police last week

@otramai Absolute X gold.

@bostonherald Our societies suffer from the inability to exile someone. When they’ve declared through their actions that they aren’t fit for our city, we need a place to send them. Australia?

[Jared Kirk @JaredAKirk]

@NeilShenvi @JennMGreenberg I know this wasn’t your point, but it has relevance to the origin of worship songs.

Should artists beliefs (or lack) affect its use?

And the natural follow up is about AI generated worship music…

[Jonathan Berk @berkie1]

Needing to plead your case before a neighborhood council just to add a bathroom for your family of 5, so your potty-training kid doesn’t have to use the back porch, isn’t “community input.”

It’s a flashing red light that the system is completely broken.

[Jared Kirk @JaredAKirk]

Detainer requests serve the specific function of removing dangerous people from our city.

You don’t have to love ICE to understand ignoring requests leads to more innocent victims.

[Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok]

Boston City Council just voted 9-4 to HIDE whether the ICE detainers
they ignored involved illegals charged with crimes.

Their reason? They didn't want
to give “oxygen” to a “false narrative.”

Boston Police IGNORED ALL 57 detainer requests last year.

Every. Single. One.

@atlanticesque I fully agree. People need to stop supporting your arguments.

[Jared Kirk @JaredAKirk]

@atlanticesque Right. “I can change him” is not a female urge but a socialist urge. Change the material conditions, change the man.

But young women have often been on board with the socialist program. Gulag Archipelago, etc.

And now they have power.

[Jared Kirk @JaredAKirk]

@atlanticesque Anecdotally…

Groups of men leading a church = “let’s grow this organization”

Groups of women leading a church = “let’s care for these people”

They need each other, but depending on which group gets priority, churches either thrive or die.
