What would happen if we all just stopped?

That question at the end of @bethallisonbarr 's book The Making of Biblical Womanhood is sticking with me today, because I am so absolutely and thoroughly DISGUSTED with the latest Matt Chandler news.

[Lauren @LABC222]

There is no sane universe in which Chandler keeps his job w/ this information coming to light.
Chris & Anna bravely share about learning The Village Church hired a confessed child sex abuser.
As Anna says, “What else are they covering?” ⁦@bbtbpod⁩ https://t.co/7CAuMb8y1U

@tayloroyoder @bethfelkerjones @nseminary I’m the student behind the fridge project and I bet folks in the neighborhood would not be opposed to someone adding beer, with or without the theology paper 🍻

[Dr. Glenn Patrick Doyle @DrDoyleSays]

Many trauma survivors expend LOTS of energy trying to keep their story & there symptoms inside. We don't wanna "burden" anyone w/ our pain.

But-- turns out stories & symptoms don't stay stuffed.

We DON'T get to choose IF they come out. But we MIGHT get to choose when & how.

I believe churches in the NT era had women ministers (diakonoi), women overseers (episkopoi), and women elders (presbyteroi) - I make a case for all of these in my book #TellHerStory @ivpacademic

@reachjulieroys @MattChandler74 @PastorMark @jamesmacdonald What a gross lineup 😵‍💫

[Darby Whealy @darby_jots]

@bethfelkerjones Thank you for standing with students. I'm so sorry you had to field that conversation. Sending love and appreciation.

[Zach W. Lambert @ZachWLambert]

Y'all still think putting armed guards at our schools is going to stop mass shootings?

11 people were shot (5 fatally) at a BANK in Louisville today. Do you realize the amount of armed security present at banks in major cities?

It's the guns. It's always been the guns.

[It's A G Thing @WilGafney]

Some of us remind them every day of our lives.

@KaitlynSchiess The harrowing of Hell is my favorite too! Have you read Denise Levertov’s amazing poem about it?

[Darby Whealy @darby_jots]

@beccanicole21 In fact I'm just one of a number of students who sent a personal impact statement to the board to express our dismay and they responded with #crickets

[Darby Whealy @darby_jots]

As a student at Northern Seminary, I am appalled by the board's continued mishandling of this situation. #istandwithjennie #northernstudentsforjustice
Northern Seminary Fires Whistleblower, Prompting More Unrest & Possible Student Protest https://t.co/9gg9JIZQAt

[Darby Whealy @darby_jots]

@beccanicole21 That's exactly right @beccanicole21 I chose Northern specifically for the reason you describe. Seeing the board inexplicably support an abusive pres, to the point of losing a trusted provost and other key leaders, has been so maddening.

[Peter Frampton @peterframpton]

I have posted this before but ..

26 years ago, a gunman entered
Dunblane Primary School in Scotland,
killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK
govt responded by enacting tight gun
control legislation. In the 9400+ days
since, there have been a total of O
school shootings in the UK.

[Diane Langberg, PhD @DianeLangberg]

An ungodly system will excuse, minimize or distort what is in fact crippling, deforming, shattering and life-destroying to humans. No matter the words used to describe it, toleration of sin, or deviation from the truth means a system is in fact NOT the work of God.

[Kelley Mathews, DMin @KelleyMMathews]

How long, @nseminary board?? You are bleeding trust and, soon, students. #northernstudentsforjustice
