Writer & Community Theologian (The Day Metallica Came to Church, Every Job a Parable, God Speaks Science, & Thy Tender Care). Into reading both of God's books.
@SpenceSpencer01 An editor at our local newspaper asked me make my 1600 word blog post 800 words. I thought it was impossible, but it ended up twice as good.
"Following on the heels of Justice Feasby’s refusal to be muzzled, Justice Leonard’s decision is the second bullet in a double-tap execution of the best shot Alberta separatism had at success." A great piece describing what's been going on in AB... and why no one needs to worry!
This is the most important, most brilliant, and most well written thing you could read today.
If you’re an Albertan, or a Canadian, and read nothing else, fine. Just read this.
Goodness me. Every word. https://t.co/TliiUbwj6H
Hopefully this book can help towards thoughtful integration of science and Christian theology - it will be published on May 26 but can be preordered now through IVP Acad or Amazon
Wow this is embarrassing!
Pete Hegseth quoted a fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction at a Pentagon speech and prayer session yesterday.
The prayer was an adaptation of the monologue delivered by Samuel L. Jackson’s character. In the movie, the character falsely attributes it to Ezekiel 25:17 before a killing, saying:
“The path of the downed aviator is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of camaraderie and duty, shepherd the lost through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to capture and destroy my brother. And you will know my call sign is Sandy 1 when I lay my vengeance upon thee.”
The best part of my Wednesdays... seeing these three sitting on a bench together waiting for their ride home from their volunteer work placement. #thytendercare
“Had he died in a more merciful, less deliberately dehumanising way, it would not be possible to see in his death the sum of all horrors.”
@flemingrut on the theological implications of the fact that Jesus was not just executed, but crucified.

Love that Emotion!
Even as things are so messed up in our world right now, I want to keep this feeling about the goodness, power, and glory of the USA in my heart going forward. #NASA#Artimus2@CBCNews

The apostle Paul's humility in writing, "I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me." Rom 15:18 makes me yearn to be the same. The self-forgetfulness of the mathematician in this clip felt like an echo of Paul's. https://t.co/uwf9sPgpNl
Gerd Faltings' colleges and “partners in crime” tricked him into a “meeting”. Watch the reaction when mathematician Gerd Faltings realizes that he will be awarded the #AbelPrize in Oslo in May.
