New rule for myself: No responding to anything on social media unless I've taken time to pray, seek God's heart, and can genuinely desire God's best for the human on the other side of the conversation.

What are your favorite resources for teaching critical thinking skills?

If you want a truly BIBLICAL voter's guide read the Book of Amos (only 9 chapters) before you vote for anyone campaigning for ANY position. It is free from current partisanship and covers the issues that God cares about most in any nation and what makes him really mad.

When SBC officials accuse @freedomsbride of "false statements" I remember how they attacked me for "false accusations" & "hyperbole, argumentative language & strident tones." After 16 yrs they finally repudiated their words. But now they treat HK worse. Despicable. #ThisistheSBC

@drantbradley Spot on.
There is also a concept called the Toxic Triangle that fits what you've said. In the Toxic Triangle, you've identified the traits of the leader and one type of follower: the conformer. There's another type of follower: the colluder.

“Every time you make a choice you are turning the central part of you, the part that chooses, into something a little different than it was before...

[Flibbertigibbet @TimothyKoller]

And taking your life as a whole, with all your innumerable choices, all your life long you are slowly turning this central thing into a heavenly creature or a hellish creature… Each of us at each moment is progressing to the one state or the other.”

Bryan Stevenson, the founder of Equal Justice Initiative, said, "Each of us is more than the worst thing we've ever done."

I was fortunate to have the opportunity to interview the leader of a very interesting program in the federal prison system.

You don’t have to agree with him but you should listen to @MustafaBarghoti - He does not support Hamas or Fatah - he is looking for a 3rd way - listen to the end - he states he’s clearly against the slaughter of innocents & explains the dilemma of Palestinians

“This is the single most blistering Clery report I have ever read. Ever,” said S. Daniel Carter, a campus safety consultant who reviewed a copy of the initial report obtained by The Post."

This will be labeled as a liberal attack against Christians. 🤦‍♂️

@SteveGarufi Nice! I hadn't seen that. Thanks for sharing it.

@SteveGarufi Boo. It's been fun chatting.
I'm not shutting Twitter down right now so hopefully we can stay connected

[Flibbertigibbet @TimothyKoller]

@SteveGarufi Oh man. Not sure. Unlikely. I'm on threads. Same handle. Are you over there? (A lot of the people that made Twitter good for me have left. So I've lost interest)

[Flibbertigibbet @TimothyKoller]

@SteveGarufi Woohoo!
It really is a powerful concept.
