Texas A&M and Coach Elko are shaping these young men into great leaders on and off the field. In my 3 years being a Aggie dad, this is the best culture I’ve seen. If you want your kids to play for a great coach this is the place to be! #GigEm#12thMan#TAMUFootball
"The usual biblical word describing the "no" we say to the world's lies and the "yes" we say to God's truth is repentance." Eugene Peterson (A Long Obedience in the Same Direction)
I’m angry & disgusted to hear of Robert Morris’ sexual abuse of a child & heartbroken for Cindy Clemishire. To sexually use a 12 yr old child, then continue it for yrs, is not merely an “inappropriate relationship.” It’s a crime. Sexual child abuse is an evil punishable by law. One can’t just confess when caught & move on with no consequences.
For the integrity of Christ’s Body, God insists “Expel the wicked person out of your church!” 1 Cor. 5:13 Perpetrators are to be publicly fired, not allowed to resign.
Child abuse STILL enrages Jesus: “If anyone offends one of these little ones, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and drowned in the sea. “ Matt.18:6.
Until the Church realizes the soul-destroying trauma of sexual abuse, the pattern will continue. Kay still remembers the horror of being molested in church as a little girl. Prov. 31:8

During his inaugural address in 2019, Zelensky told lawmakers: “I do not want my picture in your offices: the President is not an icon, an idol or a portrait. Hang your kids' photos instead, and look at them each time you are making a decision.”
Jesus, be near the frightened, the suffering, the fleeing, the hiding, the shivering, the aching, the bleeding & dying on this globe tonight. Send word of your mercy reaching them as we pray for your outstretched arm to save. Rush to aid. Be swift to Shield. Be made known, Jesus.

“In your actions, don’t procrastinate. In your conversations, don’t confuse. In your thoughts, don’t wander. In your soul, don’t be passive or aggressive. In your life, don’t be all about business.” -Marcus Aurelius (taken from @RyanHoliday’s #TheDailyStoic)
Thank you @drmoore “What if people don’t leave the church because they disapprove of Jesus, but because they’ve read the Bible and have come to the conclusion that the church itself would disapprove of Jesus?” https://t.co/KAKOARsxAq
“If you want to learn, if you want to improve your life, seeking out teachers, philosophers, and great books is a good start. But this approach will only be effective if you’re humble and ready to let go of opinions you already have.” -@RyanHoliday#DailyStoic
