@ItsMrZedLight Issue with Smith not showing trade options. Not an issue if contracts were craftable, but they do not seem to be... thoughts?

Lament is the song we sing in the space between pain and promise. It becomes the path between the poles of a hard life, and trusting God's goodness. - Mark Vroegrop

The American Church needs to return to the lament psalms

[R. Andrew Wood @RAndrewWood]

It only takes one generation to forget to tell of God's goodness and love to the next for whole generations to be lost...

The question I keep coming back to is how do I do my part to be faithful to my children and their generation?

Churches be like:

We’re looking for a pastor. He needs a masters degree, doctorate preferable. Must be a great leader with organization skills and ability to cast vision. Must be a dynamic communicator, but able to counsel. Able to build and lead a team.

Salary: $45K

Social media forms you and me just as surely as our quiet time, our reading, and perhaps as much as our houses of worship. Proceed with caution.

"The reason we come away so cold from reading the word is because we do not warm ourselves at the fire of meditation."

@kevinmyoung Whut. No.

Why does “faith over fear” apply to wearing masks and not getting the vaccine?

Because it’s not about faith, it’s about political idolatry informing even medical choices.

Our anemic discipleship that avoided the political elephant in the room for decades has consequences.

[Kenneth Keathley @ken_keathley]

Much of the confusion surrounding the sufficiency of Scripture unfortunately comes from the five Solas. Great slogan, but sola doesn’t mean exactly the same thing each time. Sola fide means “faith alone” while Sola Scriptura means “Scripture ultimately.” Subtle but big difference

[R. Andrew Wood @RAndrewWood]

@ken_keathley This is perhaps the biggest thing I learned in your classes, Prima Scriptura.

Some of the questions and discussion have been extremely beneficial and handled with much love and grace. Others, however…#SBC #SBC2021 #SBC21

QAnon revealed evangelicalism’s intellectual laziness. 25% agreed with this statement: “The government, media, and financial worlds in the U.S. are controlled by a group of Satan-worshipping pedophiles who run a global child sex trafficking operation.”

This Republican thinks that the child tax credit plan is a wonderful idea. Good tax policy will be pro-life, pro-children and pro-family. https://t.co/LKYWBQNLW0

We seem to be losing the ability to eat the fish and spit out the bones.

We should mourn when closet racists & neo-Confederates feel more at home in our churches than do people of color. if we had shown as much sorrow for the legacy that racism and discrimination as we have passion to decry CRT, we wouldn’t be in this mess. https://t.co/PkOpWoXyDO

The conservatism of the human mind, and particularly of the theological mind, is such that it almost always retches at anything new and strange - Preserved Smith

Funny how true this is, but knowing a problem, is the first step to fixing a problem.

Amen.

[Neil Shenvi @NeilShenvi]

I am currently speaking to a professing Christian who has embraced a particular conception of systemic/structural sin.

He is now having trouble affirming that Jesus was *actually innocent and sinless during his life*.

Don't let your sociology wreck your theology.

God does not seek to enslave his people to achieve maximum profit; rather, he offers the conditions for the vital flourishing of his people that will lead to a life of fruitfulness. - Gisela Kreglinger
