Truth #1: Church hurt is real. Truth #2: Churches can be sanctuaries of healing. Both can be true simultaneously. What needs to happen for the second truth to impact the first one? #churchhurt

@jamesgunn.bsky.social You had me at Krypto. I’m so stoked for this movie. Thank you, James!

I made a nerdy blunder preaching today. I was listing names of Jesus and tried to say Yeshua Hamashiach, but mistakenly said “Haderach” for the last part. As in, “Kwizatz Haderach.” I immediately corrected myself. I could have let it stand to see who caught it! More likely I’d be called a heretic… 😂

Agreed. I once talked about getting ready for the “increasingly complex” moral questions of the 21st century. I was wrong. The most heated moral questions of today aren’t new or complex at all. We are called today to state what should be obvious.

Things I’m tired of explaining to people on Twitter: • Yes, scientists know more than you do. • No, your own “research” is not better than peer-reviewed data. • Your vs. You’re • No, Hitler did not have a point. • A constitutional republic is a form of democracy.

Who'd of thought King Solomon would have had anything to say about Social Media? Prov. 11:12, "Whoever belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent."

Please and thank you!! And stop making him out to be an evangelical.

Never underestimate people’s capacity to choose the golden calf, long to return to Egypt, beg for a king, embrace familiarity and comfort rather than progress and discomfort, and be moved by fear and anger rather than courage and love. The way of Jesus calls us to rise above this.
