Rich Mullins died 25 years ago today. I miss that brother. I can only imagine the trouble he’d be getting into if he were alive right now.

Spreading conspiracy theories = gossiping.

A father in our church took asked his children to journal about their studies, their sins, and their thought process as they consider the decision to be baptized, creating a record of their decision.

No matter how peculiar, how jaded, how perverted, or how dismissive of religion, nearly everyone values a good love story, especially when they see it in action

Sojourners associate opinion editor, Josiah R. Daniels, sat down with Julian to talk about the theology of jazz, the Black church, the spiritual practice of rest, and the late Mr. Fred Rogers. If you’re weary, this interview is for you. https://t.co/g4xTyoJuAU

[Scotty Smith @ScottyWardSmith]

When the Gospel is “in play” in our relationships, it’s like a "reversed tug-of-war." A grace-battle of “outdoing one another in showing honor” (Rom. 12:10), valuing others above ourselves (Phil. 2:3). It’s loving others the way Jesus loves us (Jn. 13:34-35).

There”s no biblical precedent for Lent. It”s become associated with the worst sort of excesses. So why shouldn”t we be satisfied with condemning it or ignoring it?

Perhaps because we”re in the redeeming business.

Because I have seen more than one Christian leader declare that Russia is God’s judgment on Ukraine,

and because scripture instructs us to correct false teaching, I want to be clear:

This teaching is monstrous & obscene. It is not just wrong, it is unholy and utterly depraved.

I would argue this is the DNA most churches should strive to implement.

@CSLewisDaily none of the above?

Feelings are like little children: they're right up in your face, always making their demands and letting their presence be felt.

I often wonder if many ministers believe the salvation of liberals, Democrats, protesters, and people who feel oppressed will come from being defamed by God's people. https://t.co/BZgOfOM4vG
