@RDrobinski @PatrickTimmons1 If you know the history, maybe look up "reasonable cause," to gain a clearer understanding of the principle.

@BastienParisot @EmmanuelMacron C'est le président de la FFF qui a été hué, Macron n'a même pas été mentionné...

@SirenesFR Mensonges, c'était le président de la FFF qui a été hué. Macron n'a même pas été mentionné... (j'étais au match)

And more importantly, what does it say of our theology of prayer? Seems like a slip towards believing in the power of the words spoken instead of trusting in the One who is powerful to act in response to our requests.

A question for my English-speaking church friends: where did this idea of praying *over* people (or even places), instead of praying *for* them come from? And how did it spread so quickly, into so many different church streams, when it isn’t really there in the Bible?

@k_tiav Andy Crouch dit qu'on pourrait soit :
. Condamner la culture ("anti")
. Critiquer la culture ("observateur")
. Copier la culture ("imitateur")
. Consommer la culture ("parasite")

Il nous appelle à entrer dans notre mandat créatif : "Créer la culture".

@k_tiav Belle réflexion. Je pourrais même encourager à rêver plus haut : que plutôt de suivre la culture de près et de se caler sur l'excellence créative développée hors de l'Église, cherchons à ce que les chrétiens soient les avant-gardistes de la culture et la créativité.

@klsau1958 @danitreweek It's ok, we're normal people.

When you start a church you’re starting a church for 7 billion people - they’re just not all under your roof - it’s only been one church since the first church was birthed

@AJWTheology @KSPrior Seems disingenuous and a strangely stated point, even though I think I see what she is trying to get at, with spiritual leadership being replaced by business leadership. That is a point in need of addressing, but it could be stated better if more accurate. 2/2

[Nathan Lambert @NathanDLambert]

@AJWTheology @KSPrior Not sure what she is referring to with the "prophet, priest and poet." If OT, then she has replaced "king" with "poet". If NT, then she has replaced (maybe) "apostle and elder" with "priest and poet". If church history, it still doesn’t match… 1/2

[Nathan Lambert @NathanDLambert]

@dattebury @AJWTheology @KSPrior As well as Rom 12.8 asking that those called "to lead do it diligently." I like much of what Karen S-P has to say and her voice is important in an era of bully-pastors. But I don’t see poets anywhere near as being as much of a normative role as is (rightly exercised) leadership.

[Nathan Lambert @NathanDLambert]

@Metalsandman999 @baumanjay @JohnPiper I took it as a question. The verse doesn’t address the issue head-on, but does speak to surrounding considerations. I do think we should question practices that come into the life of the church, particularly the ones that go along with the tide of our surrounding culture.

[Nathan Lambert @NathanDLambert]

@PastorMark I’m pretty sure the Beatitudes punch culture in the mouth way more than trying to "punch culture in the mouth" with the methods of the world. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. That would exclude the non-meek.

@TopeKoleoso @kemikoleoso @glastonbury @EzraCollective Crazy! I’ve been listening to them for years, had no idea that the bassist and drummer were your sons 😃😃

[Nathan Lambert @NathanDLambert]

@PrestonSprinkle @evanwickham More earthy genres (rap, hardcore metal...) are better for speaking to men, and can carry more punch in getting a strong message across to touch the hearts of men, in more of a prophetic than a priestly mood. They have their place, but maybe not in corporate, Godward worship.

[Nathan Lambert @NathanDLambert]

@PrestonSprinkle @evanwickham One last point on musicology: some genres are "uplifting", others are "earthy". I would say that, be it choral singing, some pop-rock arrangements and even electronic music or others, music appropriate in a worship service should lead us "upwards", from a musicality standpoint.
