Want your worship experience to be different at church this weekend?

• Pray before you get there. Ask God to
speak to you.
• Listen to worship music on the way.
• Take a Bible with you, instead of
relying on the screens.
• Don’t run late.
• Sing loudly like you mean it.
• Take notes,
• Talk to people.
• Expect God to move.
• Go live out the sermon.

@hershaelyork Another that came to mind.. how to keep your identity in Christ untangled from your role as pastor/preacher

This quote haunts me like few others do 👀👀👀

"Power offers an easy substitute for the hard task of love. It seems easier to control people than to love people ... Many Christian empire-builders have been people unable to give and receive love.”

– Henri Nouwen

@hershaelyork Having conversations with other pastors you disagree with.

One of my favorite things about Tim Keller..

[Peyton Hill @sPeytonHill]

Tim Keller died at age 72, but he did not begin publishing until 15 years ago. Two observations:

1. He made an incredible, lasting impact in just 15 years of writing.

2. He provides an example of wisdom in waiting patiently before trying to say something to the wider Church.

[Shane Pruitt @shane_pruitt78]

77% of all Christians surrender to Jesus as Lord & Savior before the age of 18, and 95% before the age of 30. Now, is the time to reach young people!

Between 2008 and 2020, the biggest drops in weekly religious service attendance are clearly those making less than $50K per year - regardless of education.

The only group that didn't see a decline in attendance? College educated folks making $80K or more in household income.

[Joshua Wester @jbwester]

Convicting words on discipleship from @timkellernyc:

Unless you're really a godly person, discipleship doesn't work ...

You can't take people where you aren't yourself.

And an awful lot of us aren't actually very godly.

That was a FIRST.

A guy just shared Jesus w/ me while I was out running.

He literally pulled up next to me on a golf cart and matched my speed.

I pulled out my headphones and he said, “I just wanted to ask you where your hope is found?”

You can share the gospel anywhere.

Baptist churches have had a transfer portal for years.

[Naismith Awards @NaismithTrophy]

ICYMI: Zach Edey Dominated‼️

His bruising big’s 2️⃣3️⃣ points paved No. 24 @BoilerBall taking down No. 6 Gonzaga last night 💪

Can the 7-foot-4 Junior become the first Boilmaker to win our award since Glenn Robinson in 1994 🤔

[Rapheal Davis @RaphealDavis3]

I still remember when Purdue basketball and football BOTH finished last place in the Big Ten during the same year 😭

Has any other High Major Athletic Programs made this type of turnaround within the last 10 years? It’s pretty remarkable where both program are now. #BoilerUp

[Shane Pruitt @shane_pruitt78]

What to do when your kids aren’t walking with Jesus:

1.Pray without ceasing.

2.Remember that God loves them even more than you do.

3.Don’t compromise your faith, but also don’t argue about it.

4.Don’t burn a bridge, so they have a path back.

5.Point to Jesus when possible.
