The loss of life in Ukraine today is our primary concern. We are also outraged at the damage inflicted on the Babyn Yar memorial by Russia’s attack today. #BabynYar was the site of one of the largest mass shootings during the Holocaust. It is sacred ground. Learn more.
@spoonen@VMware Blessings on the road ahead! I am sure that God is already there waiting for you, even if you're still discovering the path. (Or perhaps you already been called to your next gig but you're just not reporting it to the public yet?)
@efremsmith Agreed. Folks in Silicon Valley feeling the weight of the recent police shooting in Minneapolis, last month's shooting of Asian spa workers, and the increased violence against Asians in America can join F&WM's Prayer Vigil at MTV City Hall on Friday night: https://t.co/fX3WM06lIv

If you have money, power, and status today, it is largely due to the century and place in which you were born, as well as to your talents and capacities and health----none of which you earned. In short, all your resources are in the end the gift of God.
Happy Reformation Day weekend! Here are some reformation style thoughts from a friend of mine. We met when he was one of the co-leads at ACF here in the Silicon Valley. Check out his post, "The Post-COVID Church" https://t.co/sWgMI9UnFK via @DrErnie

We watched A Life on Our Planet with the family. Touching. Troubling. Worthy of watching. Having always loved the majesty of God's handiwork, I loved this film and it's call for us to protect our Garden of Eden.
Intriguing insights in this WSJ analysis which suggests that Covid-19 was rampant in the U.S. much earlier than we knew. And well before we started shutting down to stop local spread. https://t.co/jOSjjZseDj via @WSJGraphics
I admire the leadership of the NBA players and other pro sports leaders. Thank you for pushing all of us to have the conversations we need to be having and to pursue the matters of justice that are long overdue. Sports are optional...Justice is not!

Billy Graham (February 1, 1981 edition of Parade magazine).
If you have a “secular” job, you’re not second class in God’s Kingdom. You are no less called than a pastor or a missionary. Your ministry is to represent Jesus in your sphere of influence and to provide financial support that enables others to do the work God equips them to do.
