Discernment is like an immune system. You'll die if yours stops working and won't attack disease, but you'll also die if it starts overworking and thinks everything is a disease.

Sex is an instinct that produces an institution; and it is positive and not negative, noble and not base, creative and not destructive because it produces that institution. That institution is the Family.

Why am I just seeing this now? This might be the greatest MLB X account interaction. A lot of screenshots but definitely worth your time. Follow along in the thread below because this might be the best thing you’ll see on here all week.
I wonder if these two are married or still together.

So much of the Christian life can be boiled down to two simple truths.
1. You are no longer your own. You belong to Christ.
2. You are no longer 𝘰𝘯 your own. He gave you the church.

Southern Baptists:
This is a common sense proposal that will fix a recurring problem at our annual meeting - a problem which is unnecessarily causing confusion and controversy over a matter in which 90% + of Southern Baptists agree.
Let's end the confusion, let's clarify our constitution, and let's then get on with the mission.
A message to my fellow Southern Baptists. We need to get this done and move forward together. I propose an amendment to preserve our unity in truth. youtu.be/Pw8A6vmHKyM

Important conversation to have, to clarify why Pillar exists, why affinity groups can be helpful to SBC cooperation, why affinity groups are natural under a broad confessional tent, and some cautions.
Take a listen to this week's episode of the Pillar Podcast!

Below are the ages of several godly men when they completed their race on this earth:
• Charles Spurgeon - 57
• Jim Elliot - 28
• John Knox - 58
• William Tyndale - 42
• Robert Murray M’Cheyne - 29
• Samuel Rutherford - 60
• Jonathan Edwards - 54
• Dietrich Bonhoeffer - 39
• John Owen - 59
• David Brainerd - 29
• John Wycliffe - 54
With many of us men in our 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond, it's sobering to consider how many men at this point in life had already finished their course with joy.
May the Lord teach us to number our days (Psalm 90:12), and help us truly grasp how short life is.
May we faithfully serve our Savior with whatever days He has given us.

This is just bad theology. It assumes theological development ceased in 381 A.D.
What about Chalcedon, Pelagianism, the Reformation, and theological anthropology facing the church today?
The church isn’t *adding* to orthodoxy. The church is *applying* orthodoxy to new issues.
The label “heretic” gets thrown around way too easily these days. If you profess the Nicene Creed & the Apostles’ Creed, you count as a legitimate Christian. Period.
Christians will always disagree about important political & social issues and matters of doctrine. But at the end of the day, if someone affirms the essential truths outlined in the creeds, they are not heretics or apostates. 🎙️Holy Post 670 with @philvischer, @skyejethani & @kaitlynschiess

"When leading corporate worship, shepherd God's people through each word you speak." - @RichPenix, Associate Pastor, Eden Baptist Church
Every word matters. From the call to worship to the final word, God’s people need truth to stand on.

Most impressive thing I’ve seen watching sports. The Warriors were 94-15 on the year before those final 3 games
This vid of LeBron leading the 2016 Cavs 3-1 comeback still gives me chills 🔥👑

Those protections explicitly made it illegal to do what Lemon and his mob did on Sunday. An attorney general who suggests otherwise is consciously lying to score points and pander to his hard left constituency.

I’ve known @jonathanparnell a long time, a kind & godly brother. It’s infuriating watching what happened to his faith family. Praying for him, his church, & that the perpetrators would be held to account even as I pray that they may come to know the grace & mercy of the gospel

Pray for peace to reign in the Twin Cities. As @jonathanparnell shared with me, "They meant evil against us, but God meant it for good." Truth, righteousness, and Christ will prevail.
