"We celebrate fathers... for so many reasons. But at the core of fatherhood is this call to love well. In a culture that boasts tough guys and machismo, we celebrate fathers and father-figures who have revealed their hearts... by how they’ve loved."

@danorlovsky7 Best thing: Was there. Sporting events. Church. School stuff.
Worst thing: I could use shame to try to "coach them up." Regret that move.

Lately, it seems as if strength is too often defined by machismo and bravado. That's not where real strength lies.

"We’re all, in some way, better off because of God’s plot twists. All of us. And that’s worth celebrating. It’s worth our gratitude. To the author of those plot twists."

How often has God met you in life's plot twists?

“Longevity science… anti-aging… whatever it is, can keep trying to crack a code that doesn’t have to be cracked. Instead, we can get busy looking out for one another. Caring for one another. Loving one another as Jesus has loved us.”

[Josh Rouse @thisjoshrouse]

There's all this talk these days about anti-aging this and anti-aging that. But what if there was something altogether wonderful about, you know, aging?

"Have you ever noticed that we don’t tend to complain when things are going our way? On a perfect spring day where I make every traffic light and the radio plays my favorite songs... ? Those are the days I don’t complain.

[Josh Rouse @thisjoshrouse]

Let's face it: We all complain. A lot. But our complaining has a way of revealing things about us as well as pointing us in the direction of God.

"That time on the road, which required a lot to even make happen, became some of my favorite time. I’m not sure when the switch flipped, but instead of seeing these trips as burdens I began to see them as blessings. Unintended blessings."

[Josh Rouse @thisjoshrouse]

Every once in a while, the things that felt like burdens become blessings.

"Because there is no auditioning required to come to Christ. We are accepted, just as we are. The worst parts of us and the best parts of us. All of us. The very core of who we are is accepted in Jesus."

"A witness is a teacher in a way. One who passes on what’s been passed to them. Whatever it takes. However it takes. And while yes, it’s important to pass along the info, what matters most is that info/experience/what-have-you is received and understood."

Who have been the witnesses that have helped shape you to be the person you are today?

@BTRowland It’s worse than that, Brad. This is going just as it’s been scripted to go.

[Josh Rouse @thisjoshrouse]

How might God be using your experiences to grow you in the middle of ever-changing situations?
