This is a great thread - so often patience and common grace are missing as we try to understand why people say what they say the way they say it.

The recent post I made about Stephen Colbert's partial answer about his faith and the ensuing comments has shown me American Christians still have a long way to go on understanding Col4:5-6, how to be "wise in the ways you act towards outsiders?" This is called contextualization.

2/2 I'm doing this for two reasons:

First, it's wild to be able to work this way and an absolute blast to see the work so many artists are making.

Second, it makes it possible for collectors to have and exchange work in a much more convenient and accessible way.

Hi friends! I'm working on expanding my catalog of work from the past decade to be available as NFTs on @opensea -- each NFT carries ownership of the original print. The holder may, at any time, exchange the token of the work for the original. 1/2

Today I minted my first NFT. I’ve spent a couple of years as an amateur miner, but I’m really excited to be on the other side and for the possibilities that this space creates.

@dnewheiser Reminds me of this all-time favorite via xkcd:

One of the lessons that I learned from my father is that you never sacrifice your family on the altar of ministry. In my case, it’s the altar of the academy. My kids don’t want my smarts, my accolades, my money, my stuff. They want my presence. That’s the gift I can give them.

@taykayhite Now the entire song is playing in my head.

@taykayhite Is your work Hobby Lobby

@joelcash1 @KarnehmEsh For that reason, I always set my emails to delay being sent until 5am so 1.) I don’t keep someone up and 2.) I look more productive and healthy than I am.

[Jer Nelsen @jernelsen]

@sleepingatlast Both ‘Breath of Heaven (Mary’s Song)’ and ‘Grown Up Christmas List’ are long-term faves. Regardless, I’m sure it will be stellar as always!

How has Awktober not become a thing yet? I practice all year and it is the only thing I can guarantee to do all 31 days of the month.

[Jer Nelsen @jernelsen]

@evangilmore I see what you did there.

[Jer Nelsen @jernelsen]

@jonathanvair One of my favorites!

[Jer Nelsen @jernelsen]

@jonathanvair José González just released Local Valley, which has some beautiful songs in Spanish (no bonus points - he’s from Sweden)
