1990s: the internet is to inform you.
2000s: the internet is to connect you.
2010s: the internet is to entertain you.
2020s: the internet is to enrage you.

God is not the God of second chances, but of new beginnings.

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

Two seemingly contradictory currents mark our society
1. There is a denunciation of all claims of absolute truth
2. Yet there is also a fanaticism in which one position or group is absolutely right, nothing is ambiguous, and divergent views should be destroyed.

Speaking the truth in love may get you killed.
Do it anyway.
Loving enough to listen may get you killed.
Do it anyway.
Having confidence in truth may get you killed.
Do it anyway.
Trusting and following Jesus may get you killed.
Do it anyway.

Lord come soon.

The New Testament documents are much closer to the events they report than any other ancient document.

There is far too little time for myths and legends to develop:

Thankful for the opportunity to visit Hope Pregnancy Center @HOPEpregnancy today with some of our @arrowheights staff. God is doing wonderful work through these centers. I’m thankful for the many ways @OKBaptists stand for life.
