@MLFootball Hi

[Among the Wildflowers @deaflibertarian]

It’s been ten years since my husband walked out because my cancer “wasn’t what he signed up for.” While fighting for my life with two little girls, I lost our home, our belongings, and discovered he was having an affair with my best friend. Rock bottom. Medical bills, no paid leave, no family support...just fear and silence. I truly didn’t know if I’d survive, but I knew I had to try.

This birthday weekend, I’ve reflected deeply, and I’m overwhelmed with gratitude. We made it. My girls are now incredible young women in college. I paid off his gambling debts, my medical bills, and I’ve bought two homes. I worked three, sometimes four, jobs to rebuild. Grit, private tears, and a reliable alarm clock got me up every morning. Prayer, faith, and love helped me sleep every night.

You won’t see this history on my sleeve. I don’t wear it. It shaped me, yes, but it made me stronger, wiser, and more grateful for the good things.

There is a growing movement to demonize empathy by right-wing Christian leaders. This year, Allie Beth Stuckey and Joe Rigney have released books called The Sin of Empathy and Toxic Empathy.
Not only is this completely contrary to the Way of Jesus, who is described by the author of Hebrews as someone who empathizes with us in every way, it is a blatant attempt to give divine credence to cruelty.
Christians denouncing empathy as sinful are just looking for religious justification to be a jerk.

@Cavaturaccioli @JonahDispatch “Good guys”?? Are there really good guys when it comes to nuclear destruction??

@MichaelKosterm2 Sean Feucht is a disobedient Christian. He doesn’t pay his musicians. See July Roy’s report. As a Christ follower I say we don’t need him in Canada .🇨🇦

[John M. James @John45458322]

@seanfeucht We don’t appreciate lawbreaking Americans in Canada. As a follower of Jesus and a lawful Canadian, I say to you go back to the United States. We don’t need your kind here.

[John M. James @John45458322]

@Franklin_Graham There are plenty of Christians in Canada. We are free to speak our mind or share our faith in Christ. There is no interference from the government or law-enforcement . We don’t need advice from right wing Christian nationalists like yourself .

[John M. James @John45458322]

@acoyne Yes. You are absolutely right.

[John M. James @John45458322]

@Franklin_Graham If you think that voting for Trump is God will you are sorely lacking in the gift of discernment?

[John M. James @John45458322]

@ZachWLambert Amen to that!!!

[John M. James @John45458322]

@dianabutlerbass By attacking David French you are engaging in friendly fire Cut it out . This is not a contest to see who receives the most vile emails , You re both indispensable and worth reading!!!

“As it turns out, character DOES matter. You can’t run a family, let alone a country, without it. How foolish to believe that a person who lacks honesty and moral integrity is qualified to lead a nation and the world!” - Dr. James Dobson (godfather of the Religious Right)

@Franklin_Graham Justice did prevail in NYC yesterday.
Franklin, you have turned Trump into an idol. Repent.
As for the convicted Trump: LOCK HIM UP!!!!

[John M. James @John45458322]

@alyyola @JacobtheDozer @kimwardphoto I’m in agreement, After preaching forty Easter’s, Don’t make it about the scandal. But now it needs to be addressed. ASAP!!

[John M. James @John45458322]

@Franklin_Graham @realDonaldTrump You need to read Liz Cheney’s book “Oath. and Honour”. Your support for Trump is horrendous . You are a wolf in sheep’s clothing. The Bible warns about false prophet’s like you.

[John M. James @John45458322]

@RickWarren Has no one on this thread read John’s gospel? Jesus is the Word of God . All praise to Him.
Scripture is authoritative but the true Word of God is Jesus!
