He heard my cry, lifted me out of the mud and mire and gave me a firm place to stand He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to Him.

When key information is withheld such that it prevents congregants and outside critics from making any informed judgment about the situation––this communicates that power preservation is more important than people's trust of those in power. 4/13

We have many problems as a nation, but the name ‘Moose Muhammad III simply would not be possible in our geopolitical rivals

@joeycochran You have done so much already! Taking the time to stop and talk to me at the bookstore last year connected and started so many conversations for me that I’m still benefitting from!

There are NOT ANY examples in the Bible of a woman being rebuked for taking a position of leadership over men. Not one! That’s because it was not God’s plan for men to lead and women to submit. That is a deeply entrenched myth that has permeated much of the church (and society)

2 years ago in November, I barely used 1 tank of gas & spent 2.5 weeks confined to my 800 sq ft apartment.

This November, I’m boarding 4 flights, spending at least one week each in 3 different time zones & meeting 8 new people (hopefully many more).

How times have changed.

@KaitlynSchiess I definitely did not have this reaction to seeing the forecast 😅
More like nervous laughter than cheering.

“Images of the holy easily become holy images- sacrosanct. My idea of God is not a divine idea. It has to be shattered time after time. He shatters it himself.”

Most of God I’ve seen through good questions and deep emotions.

@binhan_dau @Josh_Ratliff96 niche and nerdy sure, but hipster? also just accepting all the labels, you might as well take evangelical too

Sisters, beware of environments where men fear women more than they fear God.

Except now I’m translating the plot of Ruth into Taylor Swift lyrics instead of working through Hebrew syntax.

don’t call, don’t text.

[Kendra Bailey @Kendra_Bailey4]

It’s Taylor Swift day & I’m also translating all of Ruth 2 in one day today for Hebrew class, a.k.a. the most Taylor Swift “love story” chapter of the whole Bible.

Blessings on you & however you choose to celebrate 🎉

Sermon #3 of seminary & I’ve officially made this reference #work in a point on the disciples realizing Jesus was the Messiah 👏🏼

[Kendra Bailey @Kendra_Bailey4]

And so it seems that the harder I experience the world to be, the softer I am compelled to be towards it in response.

I think Jesus did that- never seeking the appearance of resilience. Like true brokenness never had to be met with fake bravado after all. https://t.co/YgE3Y6urhA

[Kendra Bailey @Kendra_Bailey4]

@tiny_rita so fall!!! I’m going next weekend for a conference & these got me so excited to see leaves change 🥰

[Joey Cochran @jtcochran]

Jesus never concealed sin to protect power.

Think on that for a bit.
