“Christ, not sociological polls, provides the norms for human living.” -Jay Adams in “A Theology of Christian Counseling”. This has been the consistent stance of biblical counseling. My mind goes back to a helpful lecture from @TDaleJohnson describing how “Jesus is Normal.”
Honestly, good for the Orioles. They didn’t get the player, but they were right there matching the winning bid. It was going to take a “this is a bad contract” kind of offer to pull Schwarber from the Phils.
AMERICA IS BACK. 🇺🇸
Every single day I will be fighting for you with every breath in my body. I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe and prosperous America that our children deserve and that you deserve. This will truly be the golden age of America.
Today’s verdict represents the culmination of a legal process that has been bent to the political will of the actors involved: a leftist prosecutor, a partisan judge and a jury reflective of one of the most liberal enclaves in America—all in an effort to “get” Donald Trump.
That this case—involving alleged misdemeanor business records violations from nearly a decade ago—was even brought is a testament to the political debasement of the justice system in places like New York City. This is especially true considering this same district attorney routinely excuses criminal conduct in a way that has endangered law-abiding citizens in his jurisdiction.
It is often said that no one is above the law, but it is also true that no one is below the law. If the defendant were not Donald Trump, this case would never have been brought, the judge would have never issued similar rulings, and the jury would have never returned a guilty verdict.
In America, the rule of law should be applied in a dispassionate, even-handed manner, not become captive to the political agenda of some kangaroo court.

Lord, help us to love those that you love as we preach your Word today.
Here we go. Holliday’s debut, batting ninth and playing second base. An infield of draftees: Mountcastle, Holliday, Henderson, Westburg and Rutschman. And an OF of 2 homegrown and a former Rule 5. DH O’Hearn only one of 9 to have played in MLB for another org.
