Many of us live outside ourselves. I mean that we spend our attention on things we cannot change and people we will never meet.

📍A Biblical Perspective on Elections, Politics, Sovereignty, and Leadership
When your side wins, God approved. When your side loses, God stepped away. Both conclusions come from the same place in the heart.

📍Ongoing anger, bitterness, or unforgiveness toward someone is the formula for giving them rent-free space in your head.

👉 Honestly, I don’t have that much head room for my offenders—other than praying for them.

📍A Reason Some Counselors Hurt More Than Help

👉 Often the heaviest pressure to change comes from helpers.

When our support starts to feel like a standard to meet, the relationship strains. Growth thrives under grace rather than monitoring. https://t.co/DbtKVk2YHX

💥 The Subtle Bondage of a Victim Identity
A man walks into the group and says two things: his first name and the word alcoholic.

‼️ Clarity does not produce change. If it did, the best-informed would bemost obedient. We are not merely thinkers, but worshipers. We interpret truth through what we love & what we fear. You can explain what is right & still miss what rules the heart. https://t.co/QMJjgbiCbv

📍How Dolly Parton and the Rest of Us Go to Heaven

An AI image made the rounds this week after Dolly Parton’s passing. Dolly arrives in heaven, and a crowd is waiting to welcome her. It is a warm picture that speaks to our doctrine of sentimentality.
