hard truths.

Wow. Couldn't agree more. 🤣😂

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

I have counseled and pastored for many years, and one of the things that has impressed me over and over again is how self-deluded people can be. Including me.

It's amazingly difficult to see ourselves with accuracy. We see other people with a fairly high degree of accuracy, but we don't seem to see ourselves with the same precision.

If you've spent half your life not knowing what the sunk-cost fallacy is, it's probably not worth learning it now.

@jonharris1989 I mean, couldn't they find a construction-themed VBS to explain the decor? Or maybe do a Bob the Builder sermon series... maybe summer with The Lego Movie? (follow me for more tips)

@matt_everhard Good... but I mean, also really predictable. I think think some of the fears were unfounded.

@WojoKen I get criticism (I don't like the calling questions gimmick) but the logic that clock should go until presbyterians run out of speeches seems it could be... problematic.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I'm not running for office. But if I were, these are some of the lessons I'd take away from what happened in NY yesterday.

1. Authenticity is measurable. Voters can smell a focus group from a mile away.

2. Endorsements from the current Democratic leadership now read like warnings. The establishment wing of the party is no longer a sword. It's a question mark.

3. Conviction beats caution. The candidates who said hard things about rent, about who pays for what, about Gaza, they won. The triangulators lost.

4. Cost of living is everything. Everything else is wallpaper.

5. The middle is not a strategy. It's an empty room. Voters reached past the establishment to grab someone who actually believes something.

6. Don't fear the base. Court it. The Democrats who ran from their own voters lost. The ones who ran toward them won.

7. If you want to lead a party you have to be willing to fight inside it. Mamdani didn't ask permission. He took the field.

The lesson under the lessons: the country is tired of being managed. People want to be led.

haha that's this week isn't it?

[Bryan of Alexandria ✠🕊️ @DBryanRhodes]

A reminder to all Presbyterians doing GA this year:
1. No, the world is not watching.
2. Your own congregations are barely watching.
3. This is a dumb argument.
4. Do not fear man.
5. However, God is watching.
6. Be courageous and faithful.

history is important.

I don't mean to brag, but I just put a puzzle together in 1 day and the box said 2-4 years.

If USA beats you in the World Cup

That country has to call it Soccer until the next World Cup
