What we lose when the Bible is only on a screen:

1. You remember where the verse lives on the page and aids memorization.

2. The page shows you much more at once. You see the context, not just a few verses at once.

3. The page keeps your notes. Years from now they will still be there, in your own hand.

4. The page cannot distract you with a notification. It only asks to be read.

5. The page is something your children watch you open and they know it’s the Bible.

The screen gives much. The page gives more.

There are certain expectations we are absolutely right to have about people in any realm of Christian ministry: Pastors, teachers, communicators, singers, worship leaders, church leaders, representatives of Christian nonprofits, etc. Expect them to be flawed? Imperfect? Yes. BUT

Among my favorite reader reviews of famous books I love is this one for Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles: "The only way this book could be sadder is if she was followed around by a one legged puppy with cancer that slowly bled out through the book."

How beautiful and heartbreaking:

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

Many years ago when we were in our 20s, one of our dearest couple friends (still close) lost a preschooler to cancer. Nearly killed all of us in our circle. The fuller details of the last moments are too sacred for social media but I can’t get a part of it out of my mind this AM.

HT the Pour Over:

[Fr. John Wallace @FrJohnWallace]

He dies for our sins, long before we ever repent of our sins.
His love is not deterred by our weaknesses or our failures, by our faithlessness or our fears.
- from a study by Geoff Chapman.

Jesus loves us before we're ready.
And he loves to the end.

[Fr. John Wallace @FrJohnWallace]

Jesus forgives before we fail, knowing we will fail.
He washes before we betray, knowing we will betray.
His mercy comes before our mistakes, knowing mistakes will certainly follow.

It is much easier to persuade men that God cares for certain observances, than that he cares for simple honesty and truth and gentleness and lovingkindness.

“Hurl grace at someone today.” Love this from EJ Gaines:

[EJ Gaines @EJGaines]

God doesn’t call us to try to fix people. Neither are we given license to discard the broken.

There’s a holy tension, and it demands living humbly and peaceably with one another, imperfect as we each may be.

Hurl grace at someone today. 🙏🏾
