Many think that in heaven or the new creation you just sit there and you don’t do anything, constantly frozen.
But Scripture says it’s a dynamic world of life, ruled by the living God. The New Creation is this world transposed into a more beautiful and lovely key.
The topic of money hits close to people’s hearts, and there’s so much emotion tied up in it (not least shame and anxiety).
It’s all the more important, therefore, that conversations about church finances and stewardship are carried out from and in love.

Part of the birds and the bees talk for Christian families should involve a side conversation about technology and fertility ethics and the future of mankind.

“Stay humble, stack sats.” Are we projecting that outwardly, to mask our pride, or are we authentically holding to that mantra?
@ProofOfRest highlights St. Augustine’s words explaining that the worst form of pride comes in a thin form of humility.
I’m giving a seminar on bitcoin for my Presbytery (regional pastors and elders) next weekend. Some of these charts will be helpful for illustrating what many churches and pastors know very painfully: that life and ministry have gotten much more expensive in recent decades.

What fascinates and terrifies us about the Roman Empire is not that it finally went smash but that ... it managed to last for four centuries without creativity, warmth or hope.

This is the central problem with higher education in the age of AI.
We can't require students to do take-home writing assignments (e.g. term papers) any more, because most will cheat and have ChatGPT or Claude or Grok do the writing.
