if you’ll help me find the river closest to your house, I’ll show you what life on this little dirt ball is all about.

Very interesting phenomenon: Almost every pastor I know (from all parts of the country) are experiencing 2 things at the same time right now…

1) More salvation, more baptism, greater attendance than ever before.

2) More attack, more opposition, more viciousness (both online and in-person) than ever before.

All kinds of pastors from all different denominational backgrounds, all different church sizes, and all different regions.

Pray for your pastor.

“And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.”
1 Peter 5:10-11 NIV

Truth:

From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.

Encouragement is rocket-fuel for the soul.

A man can go 3x as far and do 30x as much if he is an ENCOURAGED MAN.

It is, in my opinion, the most underrated spiritual gift.

I simply cannot believe that I had NEVER learned this in a textbook or anywhere else. You're watching me hear it from @TimDavidBarton for the first time.

This seems like a pretty big deal.

@GeorgeRoush @hllywoodlandCA @grok Was the big bang theory first put forth by a catholic priest?

He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.

@elonmusk We just leased a new model 3. Was NOT as smooth as we had imagined. Wife wanted to bail on it but we hung in there. I would be happy to DM you the circumstances and story. It’s in the garage and we love it but order and delivery was rough and app issues as well.

JUST IN: US Navy bans use of DeepSeek due to 'security and ethical concerns,' per CNBC.

@tim_cook Please stop the integration of ChatGPT as the only option for Apple Intelligence. It’s becoming more and more apparent that privacy isn’t a concern for them. There are other options that are just as good if not better. Grok would be an awesome and fun addition as well as Claude and a few others.
