[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

We want the war horse.
Jesus rides a donkey.

We want the eagle.
The Holy Spirit descends as a dove.

We want to take up swords.
Jesus takes up a cross.

We want the roaring lion.
God comes as a slaughtered lamb.

We keep trying to arm God.
God keeps trying to disarm us.

@drewdyck My wordle starting word on Sunday has to be Arise or Risen.

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

Good Friday is the one unifier of us all. The ground leveller. The solitary time the whole of the world’s population—past, present & future—is crowded to the brim in the same sinking boat. If not for Good Friday, we’d all be lost.

Behold the Lamb of God, crucified for our sins.

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

Timothy J. Keller, husband, father, grandfather, mentor, friend, pastor, and scholar died this morning at home. Dad waited until he was alone with Mom. She kissed him on the forehead and he breathed his last breath. We take comfort in some of his last words...

[John Kasich @JohnKasich]

America needs to secure our border & enact comprehensive immigration reform, but what we need to remember is that we are talking about real human lives.

It's unconscionable to hear Trump talking about separating families & using children as pawns. That is not the American way.

Why Read The Bible In Hebrew?

Let's talk about one of the most iconic villains in world history—the Serpent from the Book of Genesis.

Why exactly was the Serpent out to get Adam and Eve?

A thread (for non-Hebrew readers too!) 🧵 1

[Ari Lamm @AriLamm]

I know what you're gonna ask. Isn't the serpent just Satan—or the inclination to do evil—given flesh?

I do think there's truth to this!

But.

The Bible doesn't say this. In the text itself, the snake is just...a snake. So why does it bother trying to get Adam and Eve to sin? 2

Here’s my tribute to the late, great Loretta Lynn, with reflections on what she could teach us about the treatment of women:

[Lecrae @lecrae]

Fellas she wants to vent and be encouraged, she doesn’t want her problem solved. Trust me.

That you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him…

Why Read The Bible In Hebrew?

Let's talk about one of the most influential stories *ever* for thinking about the nature of human progress—the Tower of Babel.

What exactly did Babel's builders do wrong?

“There are 2,000 verses of Scripture that tell us we must be committed to protecting the poor and the and the oppressed... There is no concern of Scripture that is addressed so often and so powerfully as reaching out to the poor." + Tony Campolo @CLSCHSnMore

Happy Thanksgiving! Let us be grateful in all things because our Father loves us!

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

Morning, Saints! Let’s have the courage & security in Christ to prefer others over ourselves today & go out of our way to bless people. Resist all the cultural me firsts. Brave being 2nd. Or last. Brave kindness. Doesn’t mean you’re weak. Means you’ve been hanging out with Jesus.

[Randy Alcorn @randyalcorn]

Our need today is for Christ-followers who bear the fruit of the Spirit and love our neighbors in doing so. Modeling these attributes should be our priority before we hastily post something in anger or spite against those we disagree with. https://t.co/AARUChBaV5

“You shall not oppress a sojourner. You know the heart of a sojourner, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt.”- Exodus 23:9
