🧵Hymn Histories: The Beautiful Story of “Be Thou My Vision”
Few songs are still sung after 1,200 years. “Be Thou My Vision” is one of them. I love it deeply, but so have Christians from medieval Ireland to modern churches worldwide. Here’s why and where it came from. 🧵👇🏼
@CNviolations Pretty foolish. Given he was crying when she dropped him in & most likely took in water then had to float on his back. Flipping him was pretty extreme. There’s a right way & time to teach this method. Discernment is lacking here.
@Texasbrn In 1975 a huge fire threatened Pacific Palisades. Its path was moving straight down Via de la Paz to the ocean.The residents who lived in the hills behind the Alphabet streets, fought that fire all night with fire fighters. I was a child & never forgot their braveryTrue Heros!❤️
@othingstodo_com In the 70’s & 80’s it was a childhood worth living & remebering every day! And yes, we were encouraged to explore & play outdoors! It was safe for the most part. Parents had a general idea of their kids location. It made us content, tough & resourceful!💪
@DrC_IET17 Yes & No. Seeing things from a physiological stand point is certainly helpful but one needs cultural & situational contexts when interpreting scripture. Extremes are boxy & safe. Living in the tension our faith is grown & love increases.
Weekly reminder:
"When the Church tries to embody the rule of God in the forms of earthly power it may achieve that power, but it is no longer a sign of the kingdom."

@MaryDeMuth Our family walked through hell. Honestly, it was worth every step to set free from institutional religion. The entire church organization is fraudulent & unbiblical. Without a complete severing it is impossible to understand on the deepest level what it means to follow Jesus.
@reachjulieroys@johnmacarthur Somebody pull the mic! Everyone stand up & leave. What utter nonsense. Pathetically delusional defines this moment w/ no credible nor accurate information being delivered. Words are powerful bringing life or death. Don’t allow these words in.
Who is the 'Silent Team MVP'?
The Spouse of a Coach.
And every coach knows it.
Here are 6 reasons why.
1. THE GLUE
The spouse of a coach is often the glue that keeps everything together and aligned. There are so many things going on in a season, and things seem to occur at 100 MPH. But the spouse of a coach is the glue that binds everything together (family, team, work, kids, and more)!
2. THE CRITICS
Leaders and coaches are in the Arena and the Spotlight, and the critics often follow. Everyone is an expert in sports, and coaching can be a very tough gig. You must have thick skin. And so must your spouse. They hear it, too. It's not easy and not fun.
3. SUPPORT
Seasons are long, and one thing for certain is that challenges will occur. Maybe it’s a team issue, a parent complaint, or a lack of administrative support. But the coach's spouse is always there to support, listen, and provide a positive outlook to keep going.
4. TIME COMMITMENT
Coaching is often an ALL-IN job, mentally and physically. It occurs after hours, is in addition to a regular FT job, and eats away at family time. Few understand this. It’s often like having a second FT job for the season. A supportive spouse is a must.
5. FAMILY STRESSORS
The time commitment and mental energy needed can eat away at family time. Coaches must be aware of this and find ways to balance and prioritize. But it is hard. A supportive spouse helps make this happen.
6. SACRIFICE
Coaches and families sacrifice a lot. But there are so many positives associated with coaching, too. Raising kids in a coaching family can be incredibly rewarding! Having your young kids come to practice and share the experience is immeasurable!

@coachb83 It’s important to take a step back & look at the bigger picture. As both a Varsity & Club coach both complement each other & offer special opportunities/experiences. Ultimately it’s the athletes choosing to play simultaneously in HS sports & Club teams not the reverse.
