I love living in Texas, but
moving here from mostly unchristian, unchurched Portland, Oregon was a culture shift in different ways. This book has helped me better understand the cultural Christianity that is so common here.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

This book is fantastic.

@RonniKurtz @NadyaWilliams81 @PhilipDBunn @mereorthodoxy That Hideous Strength is an amazing read.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

@RonniKurtz How is reading "That Hideous Strength" a punishment?

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

I just read "To Gaze Upon God" by Samuel Parkinson and "Light Unapproachable" by Ronni Kurtz back to back. Both were profound and reading them brought me to a deeper love for God.
Thank you @samuel_parkison and @RonniKurtz

@RonniKurtz For me, the foundation is "On Writing Well" by William Zinsser

@TracesofTexas I dig the aversion to crowded spaces, but our H-E-B never feels as crowded as supermarkets in other parts of the country. Must be the people.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

@RonniKurtz @ivpacademic Got mine.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

@RonniKurtz I'm looking forward to reading it.

@RonniKurtz @SBUniv Was it fruitful?

@TracesofTexas John Lee Hooker bought me a drink at a bar he was playing in Portland, OR, sometime in the mid-seventies.
Cool guy, great show.

Hey friends, these two are some of my best friends in the world. Long story short: they cant have children of their own & are pursuing embryo adoption. That isnt a cheap process so theyre trying to fundraise. These two are gospel-centered and love Christ.

@RonniKurtz Amen, Brother.

This morning I finished "The Explicit Gospel" by Matt Chandler and Jared Wilson.
It touched me deeply as it reminded me of the glory and grace of the Gospel.
It is deeply theological and very practical, and I highly recommend it.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

@RonniKurtz The Trilogy is good. That Hideous Strength is fantastic. I've reread it by itself and plan to do so again.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

I found a copy of "The Soul of Baseball" by Joe Posnanski in a used bookstore and hoped that reading about the great Buck O'Neil would help me. It did.
I'm looking forward to Spring Training.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

I've loved baseball for nearly as long as I can remember. This past season I was very discouraged. The rule changes (I'll always hate the DH) caused me to watch less. It was a sad time.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

@RonniKurtz @coramdeo1 @ivpacademic Looking forward to it.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

@pj_schreiner The trilogy is great. "That Hideous Strength" deserves reading and rereading.

[Raymond Carter @raymondccarter]

@TracesofTexas I loved watching it. I loved reading it even more.
