I knew Queen Elizabeth II was amazing even before I knew she owned every swan in England. But especially after that - and even more so after I learned about the “treasure house” that got her through the day. https://t.co/rQKP6XWbhg

Thanks @TGC for letting me share a story that changed my life.

I will never forget Gloria’s story. It changed me 12 years ago when I heard it. Thanks @TGC for the opportunity to share it. https://t.co/XDt1pn6cOY

@pastor_adam @EdLitton @AlabamaBaptist published an article on him here. Shows a lot of his heart. https://t.co/CmbAfYFrLV

“Heaven is full of people who never had their dreams come true but they were faithful to God. Be faithful in this moment. Be all His.” @EdLitton #plantalabama

@jeremybhm @MattMason3 100 percent agree! I was waiting for it.

If you need a good story after #sbc21 of how God is at work bringing unity, here’s a serial-style podcast about two churches in Montgomery, Alabama. It all started with one hug. https://t.co/uGUsoC0xq8

“Nothing is more costly than treating God as small. Nothing is as insane as treating God as a consultant for your life.” - @MattMason3

[Grace Thornton @gracefortheroad]

Grateful for the chance to get to be a part of telling this story. Even more grateful for the people investing their lives to take hope to the hurting.

[The Southern Baptist Texan @SBTexan]

In an exclusive two-part series, we look at how missionaries use trauma healing programs to share the gospel and make disciples from Colombia to Uganda. @IMB_SBC

@RaleighSadler Raleigh, I am so, so sorry.

[Grace Thornton @gracefortheroad]

@jrmowens I feel this. When I go to Chili’s, it takes me straight back to the Middle East. Every. Time.

All the memory of that pizza box has done for me is make me understand that I can never understand. But I want to listen. Learn. Love. Act. https://t.co/wfuc0Qb1D2

@kristenpadilla Same ... and mine was “ready.” I’m the one providing God with the humor over here. 😂

[Grace Thornton @gracefortheroad]

@dmcgough @netflix This resonates.

If I were on the other side of the world and hadn't heard the gospel yet, I would want someone to risk it for me. An old story that's on my heart again tonight. https://t.co/kCj37yjJnF

[Grace Thornton @gracefortheroad]

@kayakgirl79 @TGC You’re definitely not alone in that feeling. Praying for Christ to sustain you today. (And all our sisters.) Thanks for the note.

[Grace Thornton @gracefortheroad]

In one part of Asia as women come to faith, they are told about persecution - and told that because there aren’t many believing men yet, they might be signing up for a life of singleness. Should we be thinking about this too as we bring up girls?

[Grace Thornton @gracefortheroad]

We as single women encourage each other to be bold women of faith who lean into Jesus and know He's the ultimate treasure. But can we talk about something for a minute? ......... Where are the men? https://t.co/lWEtkaZrN3
