Can someone explain to me why a male qualified board of elders can't commission a woman to teach on a Sunday morning as a guest teacher? #SBC

[Stacie Johnson @StacieJohnsonCD]

@briandrinkwine @megbasham This is helpful. In regard to #1, does it not matter if she is not on staff or in a position of authority of the church? If she is not a pastor, but a missionary, would the amendment apply?

[Stacie Johnson @StacieJohnsonCD]

Megan, I am not Southern Baptist and certainly do not understand all the inner workings. Can you answer a few questions for me?

1. Will this amendment keep a woman from being a guest on a Sunday morning? For example, having someone like Dr. Kathy Kouch guest teach during a series on worldview?

2. How should a current SBC church now respond if they have a men's pastor and a women's pastor? Does everyone become "Directors" while reserving the title Pastor for the Lead Pastor? Is that what the Amendment is trying to accomplish?

Thanks for the help.

Yes we did. And we’re going to do it again next year.

It's so sad. First act of the night and the criticism is, "It took too long." Maybe we don't need more fast paced slop that fries our brains. #AGT needs to learn why #MarkRober has millions of followers. We do have brains. We like to learn. We can follow along for more than 10 seconds. Do the judges have short attention spans or are they insulting is. Either way, it is sad.

"A mom who leaves her newborn and vanishes is abhorrent. The baby will be consoled: 'Your mom shouldn’t have left you. She probably loved you so much, and we don’t know why she did what she did.'

A mom who is paid to leave her newborn in the room across the hall is a hero. The baby will be told, 'You should be happy you have two dads.'"

Karmelo Anthony was found guilty of murder today. A teenager who will likely lose his freedom for decades. Austin Metcalf already lost his.

We raise black boys to perform toughness, to harden their faces around white people, especially. We tell ourselves we are preparing them for a hostile world. We are handing them a script that ends in a courtroom or a casket.

I know, because that script was handed to me. We have to stop doing this to our sons. https://t.co/pib5fzjlkR

I understand the need for clarity. I also have a lingering question. Much of the motivation for the use of "pastor" is to acknowledge the shepherding role of staff and guarantee that the women's pastor and men's pastor receive commensurate pay and ministry partnership. How does this resolution provide the clarity needed but also encourage those staff who do the same work receive the same partnership and pay. Job title in work situations often have consequences beyond a label.

@Outspoken_Sam Is anyone asking why she doesn't look 21 weeks pregnant?

[Stacie Johnson @StacieJohnsonCD]

No, they made the majority choice. Majority is rarely right in choices of morality. Was slavery wrong only when the majority agreed it was wrong?

Also, walking through the difficult seasons of family life is one thing. Advertising justification for killing an unborn child to your millions of impressionable followers is another.

About 70% of Down syndrome pregnancies are aborted in America. Overturning Roe did not impact this figure. For all the wailing and garment rending and threats of violence from RWNJs in the comments, Jesse and his wife made the overwhelmingly normative choice.

Thank you @BritBox_US for ruining Jane Austen, Mary Bennett, Aristotle, and western civilization all in one fell swoop. #theotherbennettsister Apparently we were wrong all of these years. The Wickhams of the world are not scoundrels praying upon the vulnerability of women. They are deeply misunderstood men who just want to free us from the bonds of social expectations. In the new The Other Bennett Sister, the audience is expected to have some sympathy for Mr Ryder who is heartbroken when the woman he has become attracted to won't run away with him without marriage. I have to say that the close-up camera on the hand of Mr Ryder that mirrors the classic scene from Pride and Prejudice, was a bit much.

No the updated Austen finds Mr Collins reading Aristotle's Ethics and concluding (wrongly) that Aristotle believed happiness can only come from knowing our inner selves, seeking our deepest desires, and making ourselves happy. Gone are the days when Aristotle instructed us that happiness can only be found in the virtuous life. No the 21st century Austen remake boldly proclaims that your happiness is in your own hands.

Modest and virtuous Mary is actually tempted by this vicious, skallywag.

I would like to thank Britt Box for the long conversation I had with my 13-year-old, explaining that Mr Collins was either blind or stupid to fail to read Aristotle properly. That the modern philosophy of "just be yourself" (because what could possibly go wrong with that) has crept its way in to our most beloved literary classics.

What's next? Perhaps Father Brown should run a brothel.

When I critique The Other Bennet Sister-this is born from a deep concern of fan comments in YouTube and Reddit. They're blind to Austen's Biblical worldview.

If you love the escapism of it-enjoy it! Truly!

Let's together pullback Austen from progressives who misrepresent her.

[Stacie Johnson @StacieJohnsonCD]

So far The Other Bennet Sister is a disappointment (ep 6). No gentleman would make an indecent proposal to a lady while visiting her at Mr Darcy's Pemberley. He'd have plenty of women in Italy to enjoy. Also, doing the dirty on Charlotte Lucas upsets me. Am I alone in this?
