Romans 8:38-39

[David Lang @DavidAllenLang]

Our culture tries to convince us that a healthy, fatherly masculinity is something negative: it’s “paternalistic” and “patriarchal.” Vilify that kind of masculinity, and the only masculinity left will be the toxic kind that exploits, victimizes, and bullies.

I wrote and recorded a few songs and would be so truly grateful if you considered listening. 🖤 https://t.co/8n9jbnxzKR

@JayBauman1 Yes! The emotional aspect of the violence felt really traumatic, so the sudden disruptions by farcical side characters were especially jarring. Despite that, I can certainly appreciate it for its cultural significance, as you mentioned. Thanks for the insight!

@JayBauman1 Hi Jay! I watched Last House on the Left last night, on the anniversary of both its 1972 release and Wes Craven’s passing in 2015. Your appreciation of his movies is a matter of public record, but I don’t think you‘ve ever shared your thoughts on that particular film?

Seneca described crucifixion as "dying limb by limb" and "letting out [one's] life drop by drop." He then asked, "Can any man be found willing to be fastened to the accursed tree?"

The beautiful, wonderful answer of the gospel is yes!

Happy Valentine’s Day! Ever wondered what it means to place your lover "like a seal upon your heart"?
Here's a hint: it’s not about sealing in freshness!
