@jbenjolliffe Hey maybe you’ll get lucky and only have to wait a year!

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

Bought an AirTag so my wife and I could keep track of our dog while we’re away, and was surprised that you can’t share it with members of a family account. Seems like a real missed opportunity @Apple, you should consider enabling that.

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

Never describe the view of an opponent in a way he or she will not own. Rather describe their view so they say, "I couldn't have put it better myself." Only then should you proceed to refute the view. If instead you caricature your opponent-- you persuade no one.

@plantdogcabbage Just had to answer the same question! Thank goodness neither me nor Rachel has owned a place ever, so I could skip deciphering that alien language that makes up the rest of the question.

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

After seeing a lot bashing between Christians over secondary theological issues over Twitter recently, this was a breath of fresh air.

[Sam Won / 원영삼 @SamObiWon]

Gracious disagreement on non-essentials (🧵):

I hold to certain positions when it comes to various secondary theological questions. I used to want to correct others who disagreed and saw this as an important part of my Xian walk.

Then something funny happened... 1/

[John Piper @JohnPiper]

“When I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long. . . . I said, ‘I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,’ and you forgave the iniquity of my sin.” Psalm 32:3–5

Hidden sin ruins life.

Confessed sin renews life.

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

Well said.

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

@Preston_n_Perry I hear that

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

Thank you to the incredibly brave women, like @LoriAnneThomps2, who spoke out against Ravi when he preyed upon them. While this hurts me, I cannot begin to imagine the hurt you have gone through.

I promise, I will do better to listen to victims in the future.

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

To learn that Ravi Zacharias, a man who had such a profound impact on my life, my faith in God, has been found out as being a predator... I don’t yet have the words to express how that feels.

And yet, my faith is not in a man, but in Christ, who is unfailing, and ever faithful.

[Dan Paterson (QC) @DanPaterson7]

On the eve of the Ravi Zacharias report being released I am clouded by deep and complex emotions.

@philvischer Okay good, I’ve only seen the first 2 and wasn’t sure I’d continue. Happy to hear it builds up!

Even as a Canadian, I’ve been waiting 4 years for this day.

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

Found myself reading this passage again today. Beautiful words!

It continues, “In peace I will both lie down and sleep; for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.”

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound.
Psalms 4:7 ESV

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

@plantdogcabbage My wife has started doing the same thing

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

These are beautiful words, I'm surprised that they're so often left out of the song.

[Mika Edmondson @mika_edmondson]

Omitted by many churches in the late 1800’s, today we sang the original verse 3 of “O Holy Night”

“Truly He taught us to love one another; His law is Love and His gospel is Peace;

Chains shall he break, for the slave is our brother,
And in his name all oppression shall cease”

[Jerridan @JerridanQ]

@BethMooreLPM This was brilliant! My fiancee was rocking with laughter, yelling "Jerridan Jerridan listen to this!" Don't be discouraged about the other comments I see here.
