Politics are important, but listen to me: Politics cannot fix what politics did not break.

And Mankind was broken long before any political system.

Only a return to Jesus Christ who can reach inside the chests of men and give them new and living hearts of love, worship, and humility can save any person, any family, and any society.

Christ is the only way out of the chaos.

Hey @southwest. It would be great if your team could give us any kind of information on why we stood in line waiting to board for over half an hour and we got nothing.

Someone asked me how I can be a Christian and support Trump.

Well first of all, I DON’T support everything Trump does, or has done. I don’t know anyone that does. But that’s beside the point.

Trump is a counterweight and not a savior. As a Christian I’m constrained to ask “which outcome restrains what I believe is more harmful?”

So, the real question is NOT “Can a Christian support Trump?” The real question is: What is the Christian ultimately placing their hope in?

My faith doesn’t find a determining factor based on who’s in the Oval Office, but rather Who is on the throne of Heaven. Contrary to today’s postmodern thought I can support certain things, dislike others, and find my identity in none of it.

The moment you start acting like your political position is the litmus test for Christianity, you have already stepped outside the heart of the Gospel. Arrogant pseudo-spirituality that judges and criticizes based on political decisions in 21st century America is lazy at best.

You can support Trump. You can oppose Trump. But if you can’t love your brother while doing it, then don’t pretend this is about Jesus.

If you’re not in this country illegally, you don’t have to worry about ICE. Not at airports, not at polling places, not anywhere.

Same way that if you’re not driving drunk, you don’t have to worry about sobriety checkpoints.

If you’re not shoplifting, you don’t have to worry about security guards at the door.

If you’re not doing drugs, you don’t have to worry about random drug tests.

See how this thing works?

Hey @AmericanAir. Who is running operations? The flights to and from Nashville and Raleigh have been horrible the last few days! 5-6 hour delays are ridiculous.

What matters is what Jesus thinks of you, not what others think of you.

Tremendous insight here

[Heath Evans @HeathEvans44]

I played for Nick Saban, Bill Belichick, and Sean Payton.

I studied under some of the greatest coaching minds in the history of professional football. And after the Lord saved me, I realized something that changed everything.

Every single leadership principle that made those teams thrive is biblical. They just did it for the glory of man instead of the glory of God.

Here is what I mean.

Belichick taught us to do our jobs. Scripture commands us to work as unto the Lord, not for the approval of men. (Col. 3:23)

Belichick held Tom Brady to a higher standard than anyone else. Scripture says to whom much is given, much is required. (Luke 12:48)

Belichick cut the cancer immediately, no matter the cost. Scripture tells us that a little leaven leavens the whole lump. (Gal. 5:9)

Belichick sacrificed personal credit and took responsibility for every loss. Scripture calls leaders to be servants first. (Matthew 20:26)

Brady sacrificed personal stats for the good of the team. Scripture says do nothing out of selfish ambition, but in humility consider others above yourself. (Phil. 2:3)

Brady could encourage a teammate and confront him in the same breath. Scripture says speak the truth in love. (Eph. 4:15)

These men did not know they were pulling from eternal, biblical commands. But the principles worked. They always work. Because truth is truth whether the man wielding it knows its source or not.

Now imagine this.

If these principles built a two-decade dynasty in professional football with men who did not know the Lord, what would God do through His church if we humbled ourselves and followed the same playbook?

What would happen in your marriage if you coached yourself harder than you coach anyone else?

What would happen in your home if you cut the cancers of laziness, passivity, and selfishness?

What would happen in your leadership if you stopped protecting your ego and started serving your team?

The blueprint is not new.
The playbook has been written for two thousand years.

The question is whether you are willing to run it.

I spent 10 years in the NFL and the best locker rooms I ever walked into operated on principles that Scripture laid out long before football existed.

Stop looking for a new framework.
Open the Book.
And do your job.

"If you agree with this statement, then stand up: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.'''
It seemed like a statement most people would support and stand for. However, a significant number of people chose to remain seated.

It was insane to watch what was going on at the SOTU address. I’m glad that @mattvanswol was there to experience it in person to express the horror of it all.

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

Going to the State of the Union was one of the most radicalizing moments of my life.

I watched in horror from the balcony as Democrats refused to stand for BASIC AMERICAN PRINCIPLES.

They refused to stand for Americans… for me and for you.

Ok Democrats… message recieved.
