Hello world! I’ll be away from social media from February 16th through March 2nd. However, there are lots of ways to ping me and for us to stay connected!

I'm begging you all to remember that a venti PSL isn't adequate hydration on the trail.

Such a great sky in DC tonight just after sunset! @capitalweather @StormHour

Honestly Taylor Swift's rate of putting out new material is starting to rival NT Wright's

Deconstruction without reconstruction — when done in isolation — never leads to growth. It leads to spiritual homelessness and emotional aloneness.

Today we are praying for Winona State University #XAPray

3 books I’m reading right now:

I have zero data to back this up, but I think the quality of our conversation re polarizing issues would improve significantly if we simply asked,

When you say _________ what do you mean?

But that requires a curiosity that is truly difficult for people stuck in our ways.

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

There are only two ways to read the Bible: is it basically about me or basically about Jesus. What must I do, or what has he done?

[Blane Young @blaneindc]

I’m excited to welcome @Georgetown and @AmericanU to campus this weekend with @dcchialpha!

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

If you say: I believe in God, I trusted God, and He didn't come through; then you only trusted God to meet your agenda.

[dcchialpha @dcchialpha]

Hope you’re having a great day! We just wanted to say, thanks for following us!

Western people want a God who is loving but not holy. They want the universe to hold their hand but not tell them how to live (a paraphrase of M.Worthen, New York Times)

Imma make a Twitter bot that just tweets this out every hour on the hour

[Joshin and Jokien @joshcarlosjosh]

I like my coffee black because I prefer the taste but also because I'm better than everyone else

[Dr. Camden Morgante @DoctorCamden]

Here’s an overlooked consequence of complementarianism: women don’t know how to negotiate differences with their husbands because they have never had permission to disagree. So they may outwardly acquiesce while inwardly resentful which ends up killing the marital intimacy.
