I've started up my cancer blog again ("A Pastor's Cancer Diary"). It's never a good sign when I do that, because it means a new chapter of my cancer journey has begun. This time, it's recurrent thyroid cancer. https://t.co/j1Yg9RT1y8

FYI @SRicchetti46: @JoeBiden must stop forcing Artsakh’s 120,000 Christian Armenians into genocidal Azerbaijan, a country openly hell-bent on ethnically cleansing Armenians & completing the #Armenian#Genocide#ArtsakhTweet
"I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game..."

@CovNetPres Yes. Moderators can be a little directive in pressing to end debate, in service to stewardship of time, but they need to be able to read the room in order to do that. Very hard to do that on Zoom.
@bbenzington @FCSpencer22 @bbezington, I believe your comment is only half correct. Yes, either MWS or TE is acceptable. But we DID change back in the sense that the GA and a majority of the presbyteries declared that MWS is preferred. How did it happen that GA planners decided otherwise?
@CarolHoward Neither of our thirtysomething kids have chosen to be church members in adulthood. I’ve never sensed that either had a bad experience as a double PK (my wife’s a minister too), but they’re typical of most of their generation in not wanting to affiliate with any institution.
