@Reagantrose Reading #RedeemingProductivity and wondering if you stick to 4:30 am wakeup on weekends? Do any days of the week fluctuate?

A thunderous joy rumbles through my bones when I remember that God saw me at my absolute sinful worst and said, "I want *that* guy."

[Matt Smethurst @MattSmethurst]

Beware of being more animated by threats to the gospel than by the gospel itself.

Spurgeon: “If you have trusted your soul to Christ, can you not trust him with everything else?”

[Jared C. Wilson @jaredcwilson]

The church. Broken, messy, frustratingly inefficient, frequently dysfunctional, brimming with lousy sinners and -- yet -- beautiful.

[Dane Ortlund @daneortlund]

Despite the astonishing technical capability we have today with phones, Zoom, livestream, etc, it remains true that ministry and Christian community require physical togetherness.

We are embodied creatures. A handshake, a hug, looking each other in the eye. Irreplaceable.

[Matt Smethurst @MattSmethurst]

If I could hear Christ praying for me in the next room, I would not fear a million enemies. Yet distance makes no difference. He is praying for me.

“And he was transfigured…and his face shone like the sun…” Mt. 17:2

“But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings.” Mal. 4:2

“The LORD make his face to shine upon you…” Num. 6:25

In Christ, the Lord is smiling at you today.

[Matthew Diaz @MattyDiaz]

“…and he welcomed them”
Luke 9:11

Wonder of wonders, Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God welcomes weary sinners to himself. Why not go to him today? He will gladly welcome you.

[Dane Ortlund @daneortlund]

Nothing in you that has not died will ever be raised from the dead.

Look for yourself, and you will find in the long run only hatred, loneliness, despair, rage, ruin, and decay.

But look for Christ and you will find Him, and with Him everything else thrown in.

C. S. Lewis

The key to sustaining joy is not circumstances, it’s Christ.

The Word of God, our Lord Jesus Christ... through His transcendent love, become what we are, that He might bring us to be even what He is Himself.

I love this picture. If the gospel is true, this boy's imagination is valid. He understands the universe far better than the cynic. Our longing for nobility and adventure is not misleading us. Our lives matter. We have important battles to fight. The human struggle has glory.

[Matthew Diaz @MattyDiaz]

@CalebMathews True story.

[Matthew Diaz @MattyDiaz]

@CalebMathews J.I. aint wrong.

[Matthew Diaz @MattyDiaz]

@marklesher By God’s grace the church is doing well, thanks for asking!

This was from a baptism last Sunday. Thankful for your investment in my life (2 Tim 2:2).

[Matthew Diaz @MattyDiaz]

Pastors are like farmers - they plant and pray for rain. When growth is slow, discouragement is near. But witnessing in one room the word's work in over 10k+ lives? That breeds pastoral confidence. I left @T4G confident that God’s word will do the work.

[Garrett Kell ن @pastorjgkell]

T4G has served as a foreshadow of glory for me.

Seeing friends in the faith from all over the world and then gathering to sing w/ them has warmed my heart for heaven.

There's nothing quite like 10,000 voices declaring their hope in Christ.

Come, Lord Jesus!

How unspeakably wonderful to know that all our concerns are held in hands that bled for us.
