Kind of joking kind of not. Orthodoxy over opinions. Orthopraxy over pragmatism. I also like pestering good folks who say silly things, don’t take it personal.
What if I told you… that true Christian discernment is not just about being able to tell the difference between what is clearly right and what is blatantly wrong, but is about being able to tell the different between what is right and what is almost right.
@shane_pruitt78 I don’t believe it’s a new Strategy… all through the Old Testament and New Testament too, we see Satan use worship to infiltrate the people of God and the Church… Jeremiah 5, 2 Corinthians 11… If falsehood didn’t look close to the truth, then it wouldn’t require discernment.
What if I told you that @jpflana is right?
The Arkansas American Baptist Conv… uh I mean Association Meeting voting on a mission advocate position … Flanagan said it… “we need to do better.”

@ABARickWarren … also, Is that not why you came?
That’s why I came. If the #ABAing isn’t taking place inconventially far away from the majority of our churches and conveniently close to some tourist attraction, then why would I let my church pay travel costs for me to take a vacation there?
@CHaddonBogard I’m realizing we’ve missed great opportunities to start a chant… 🤦♂️

@CHaddonBogard @BuzzwordBane I for real love Doug Curtis, he really is a great man.
It’s just comical with the Rick Warren jokes because Doug has truly been involved and done so much in his ministry and through Bogg Springs.
@CHaddonBogard Many expect all preachers families to live lower than they would live.
The preachers wife seems tired/depressed B/C she is. She can’t go to ladies events b/c she HAS to work, is then shamed by the ladies for missing, all while her kids depend on those ladies kids hammidowns…
Well duh they should have! They should have stripped his support the moment he supplemented his income in order to survive… 2 Hesitations 3:16 says, “Ministers should be poor and humble, God keeps them humble, the church keeps the poor.”
