It's been a few months, but I finally got out and recorded a practice round... and after three holes did a reveal. Follow my disc golf escapades @McChainzDisc

Was privileged to participate this past weekend in the 250th anniversary of the Battle of Bunker Hill. https://t.co/y24zxm8pf1
Lots of photos out there by attendees & news, but included is cool drone shot. A highlight was being selected to represent the landing on the beach!

Great book by a great scholar.

@derekradney Indeed! Learned HTML in '96 & got college student job of 'webmaster'. Landed first salaried employment in a university IT unit in '98, part of a new team to build web apps. So much excitement about the possibilities and benefits of easier access to information. Salad days!

[Kevin McClain @kevinmcclainphd]

@kkramermcginnis @MBurtwrites Yep, and even landed the part of Tommy Djilas in my western PA high school production, my sophmore year!

What a fun thread

[David Rowe @mrdavidrowe]

Five years ago, @holland_tom suggested that someone should find a song to represent each of the 66 Biblical books (sorry Catholics, Orthodox, etc.). The following is what I came up with.

Rules: no bad songs, no church songs, no repeated artists, and nothing too obscure. Read on!

[Evangelist Tim Lee @MarineTimLee]

I'm not against most contemporary music. What bothers me is that many churches have forgotten these real theological songs and there's a whole generation coming behind us not learning them. I still contend that we can have the best of both styles.

[Kevin McClain @kevinmcclainphd]

Give a listen to this @GraceKville sermon, working through the Apostles Creed & Luke 16. At 26:00 mark @Randamir does a beautiful 'Randy thing' & shines light on the true, 7th brother, come from the dead.
It shook me! I sat up straight, eyes watering!

@racheljwelcher @Randamir @GraceKville To this day I'm amazed he took the time to read it and so skillfully cut to the heart of the matter. It shakes me every time I remember it. I learned so much from it.

[Kevin McClain @kevinmcclainphd]

@racheljwelcher @Randamir @GraceKville I wrote a 25 page paper on some political philosophy. I thought it clever at navigating moral issues. I have it to him to comment. He took the time, and on the last page, wrote in red ink, 'But is it good?' That single comment undid me & sparked a holy zeal in me to better love.

[Kevin McClain @kevinmcclainphd]

A favorite.

[Kevin McClain @kevinmcclainphd]

Love this time of year

[Kevin McClain @kevinmcclainphd]

We are watching Schaeffer's 10 part series 'How Then Should We Live? ' in Sunday School at @GraceKville . I first watched it 30 years ago during my freshman year in college.
Still thought provoking.

[GA Junkie @ga_junkie]

[Kevin McClain @kevinmcclainphd]

@TheAlanNoble Why should it be any different?

[Kevin McClain @kevinmcclainphd]

Really enjoyed this interview. I read Clouser's Myth 20 years ago & it changed my life. Love his insights re: Xian Fundamentalist 'Encyclopedic' view of scripture, & Greek thought shaping Catholicism & Protestantism & of course, Dooyeweerd.
