@esaumccaulley “Lord Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner. Pray that 50 times in a row and you’ll see things differently after.” (Rowan Williams)
@thatchrischase Technological leaps have never been a problem for humans. That is not the hard stuff. Part of the growth needs to come from the acceptance that character is central to design, and focusing on questions about character will ensure our design and designs are better realized.
One of the lessons my generation will need to learn is how to take time and be patient. Immediacy has been our experience and now colours many of our expectations. But we are finding at every turn that some things take time, a reality which is not inherently evil.
Wondering how to pray?
1. urgent de-escalation of hostilities
2. Men & women of peace on both sides
3. Wisdom for world leaders
4. Protection for the most vulnerable

@CanonOakley @BloodaxeBooks@ChurchTimes Can’t wait for that event. Never been more eager for a gathering, and something I’d never usually have access to based on geography.
Staying healthy as a Christian leader in a pandemic:
1. Listen to *critique*.
2. Be wary of taking in too much *criticism* in one day/week (critique & criticism are different).
3. Take special note of encouragement.
4. Pray like your breathe.
5. Sing “Jesus Loves Me” routinely.
One thing I recommend is an “encouragement file”. Literally any bit of encouragement you get copy/paste and toss it in there with the names of those who gave it. Read it when needed to help recalibrate.
