Consider the phrase “I can’t live without community.” The difference between it being an existential and biological reality for a person and it being a caption on a picture of a picnic explains most of our modern problems.
I recently had a conversation with several Bay Area church goers who said they cannot remember the last time the word "sin" was mentioned during a church service. Yet, teaching HS in the Bay Area, I'm regularly surprised how many teens speak of sin as something that explains…
Reading to my children is probably the most validating and satisfying activity in my life.
I really dislike the experience of "chatting" with customer service online and wondering if I'm talking to a real human being.
I think one of the great plagues of the modern Church is the ease with which we can just go to another body. It makes the realities of our faith, like every other aspect of modernity, optional. I don't envy the Xians in the Catacombs, but I bet they worked out their problems.
Art Matters. And we really miss out when we treat it as just a luxury. David wrote Psalm 59 while Saul's men were searching his house to kill him. Imagine the psyche that turns to creation in a time of desperation. We need more of that.
I feel like I am perpetually navigating between "I want to buy a farm for my family and homestead there" and "If I haven't fled to Idaho for refuge yet, I'm probably meant to stay in California... Like a missionary is called." I know which one I'd rather do.
How much damage has been done by English teachers allowing students to believe that every poem and book has a secret meaning you can decode, after which you have understood the piece?
"Formal schooling has no intrinsic value, but becomes necessary when humanity creates a condition in which one must become 'educated' to get along." - Masanobu Fukuoka, The One-Straw Revolution I am increasingly convinced this is true.
It's amazing to think that the language we use changes not just how we see something but what we can see. I think we moderns are literally blind to so much of the world because of our insistence on Scientism and materialistic language... youtube.com/watch?v=mgxyfq…
A few films that Christians should watch as they work out their faith. (Films that explicitly deal with faith.) -Silence (2016) - Martin Scorsese -Secret Sunshine (2007) - Lee Chang-dong -A Hidden Life (2019) - Terrence Malick -Fury (2014) - David Ayer What else would you add?
I think the greatest works of art are not driven by a message, but working out a question.
One of the most frustrating things about teaching a film art elective in a high school is the fact that the students are so overwhelmed and dispirited that what should be a fun and life-giving experience of art creation becomes another suffocating task to do in their day.
Is it anyone else's experience that you're watching a movie you've seen a million times, but you're watching it with someone else who has never seen it, and you notice some small detail you never noticed and without prompt, they notice it too? What is that? When screening a movie…
“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.” - Albert Einstein I believe that the best way to teach kids about moral virtues is to engage with the stories and entertainment they love.…
As I look at the depth of hope people are putting in an election, I start thinking about Nietzsche's "Will to Power." We no longer agree on what is Good or even have a common language around it. Our civilization is more seriously experiencing the "decay of God's corpse up which…
Wendell Berry's comments after the 2016 election seem apt as we head toward another, um, less-than-inspiring set of choices this November.

Reading aloud the great works of literature to our kids expands their vocabulary, broadens their scope of asking good questions, deepens their connectivity to the world, strengthens their imagination, and sharpens their discernment to the consequences of action.

@SHK_Movement “It is obvious that all marriages are imprudent marriages; just as all births are imprudent births. If prudence is your main concern, or if (in other words) you are a coward, it is certainly better not to be married; and even better not to be born.” — G.K. Chesterton
My pastoral word to our church today re earthquakes, solar eclipses, and the end times: 1. Jesus’ return is closer today than it was yesterday. 2. Resist the urge to center America to all things End Times. History doesn’t revolve around the USA. 😁
We write today with extraordinary good news: since our Feb 8 announcement, we've seen an overwhelming show of support. We heard from friends we knew about, but also from friends we didn’t know we had. As a result, we’re not suspending operations after all. Read more on our site.
I think many profs don't like grading papers because it's actually the hardest thing we do. Trying to charitably understand someone else's writing and then explaining how to help it improve while also doing copy editing is tough!
Really love the analogy about masculine containment that describes the man as the clam shell and the woman as the pearl. The shell creates a “safe and nourishing place for the woman to exist or occur” and allows her to be fully feminine - soft, open, and capable of growth.…

@JavierHCopy I believe you are the first to request Old Norse 😆
One of the wonders of Christ’s wisdom fables (parables) is that he went to great lengths to stress that the true “Kingdom of Heaven” will be invisible even as it potently works. Yeast, a planted seed, a buried treasure, a hidden pearl. You do not see it? Good! Wait in hope.
