Frame this one for the ages.

A youth clinic built on legacy, led by legend @Aaron7Chiles, filled with players who understand what this program demands.

This is culture. This is brand. This is what the standard looks like.

Incredible day at @OLGCHS.

#LBHIGH legend @Aaron7Chiles pouring into the next generation in a packed, sold-out session.

This is what makes it different here

It’s not hype. It’s legacy. It’s standard.

#LBHIGH isn’t just a room… it’s tradition.

When the non-Christians look more like Christ than the Christians do, your Christianity is corrupt.

“You should never be afraid of a little zhuzh” might become my new life motto. @jvn @QueerEye

@andykort Ohhhh nooo no no no. No way. I can’t even with that. That’s more than not ok.

“True solidarity costs something.” @blackliturgist That’s the tweet. True solidarity costs something. Absolutely. It must in order to be true solidarity.

Rest in power. Rest In Peace. Well done.

BREAKING: Queen Elizabeth II has died, Buckingham Palace says. Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, and a rock of stability over more than seven decades, was 96.

Elizabeth was on the throne as the U.K. rebuilt from war, and both entered and left the E.U. https://t.co/GhOpxV9ggc

Afraid to go grocery shopping. Afraid to send our kids to school. This isn’t freedom.

Guns are not more important than people.

[Rep. Dean Phillips 🇺🇸 @RepDeanPhillips]

I’m a gun owner. Do not tell me our Founders conceived of this carnage when they wrote the Constitution. Do not tell me they would have tolerated this madness. Do not tell me that teachers must be armed. And do not tell me your AR15 is worth more than another 14 children’s lives.

Many people talk about racism but don't want to deal with white supremacy. Many people talk about love but don't want to deal with injustice. Many people talk about unity but don't want to deal with power. Many people choose the status quo, not liberation.

What if Jesus wasn’t telling us “How to go to heaven,” but inviting us to participate in bringing the justice of heaven to the earth?

[Laura Batten-Carbaugh @LBattenCarbaugh]

Amen.

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

Bless y’all today. I pray each of you some gentleness and kindness and peace and clarity in Christ Jesus today. Breath of Life, breathe on dry bones.

Welcome refugees.

Time for nations to stop pretending to be righteous when they’re actually being racist.

Welcome all.
