An important question for Reformed churches via @adam_a_perez: "Can [Contemporary Praise & Worship] practice be defended under agreed-upon theologies of sacramentality or broader commitments about the Spirit’s work in the world through multiple means?" reformedjournal.com/towards-a-refo…

Reformed and Contemporary Worship? Can it be so? A few thoughts from myself and @litz_luke, with some shoutouts to the @worshipresearch project. reformedjournal.com/towards-a-refo… Also thx to Reformed and Latinx theologian @AlbertoLaRosa90 #worship #reformed #contemporaryworship
Can you imagine if Joseph’s brothers told him “That whole us selling you into slavery thing really worked out for you in the end, didn’t it?” That would have been deeply cruel and insensitive. It’s just as cruel for the beneficiaries of a slaveocracy to say that to its victims.

Remember kids, when God commands us to "welcome the sojourner" what he REALLY means is "kick out the sojourner." That's just the plain reading of Scripture.
🧵Awhile ago I posted that I think there's a class of Christians in the US who hate the idea of Jesus loving and saving people. Some Christians got mad. I look at the (mainstream evangelical, even) responses to Russell Moore and I think I'm just obviously right.
Why is the PCUSA dying? They are proudly egalitarian, social justice focussed, sex positive, etc. & the things many people say evangelicals need to become, so why will it likely not exist by 2040? What are they doing wrong?

Trying to get the word out about our new post with @worshipresearch -- here's me doing a social media video... worshipleaderresearch.com/the-worship-in…
Was taking a look at the Southern Baptist Convention's membership stats in the post-war period. Wow. They doubled in size between 1946 and 1972. 6M -> 12M. They added an average of 220,000 members every year from 1946 through 1983. From 2017-2021, they lost 1.32 M members.
Everyone knows that religion is declining, but what does that actually mean for a specific denomination? I did a deep dive into the PCUSA to provide a sense of how fast their membership has dropped and when they may cease to exist. Short🧵. graphsaboutreligion.com/p/what-does-de…

I was thinking this morning how we’re all disciples of someone. Of some entity. Some doctrine. I was thinking how quickly you can tell these days which news networks we’re discipled by. I’m not just talking about one in particular. Take your pick. We the people have become we the…

@ferrismattic Maybe the Day of the Lord and the return of the Lord are NOT the same thing. Problem solved.
I'm anti-flag when it comes to churches. National, Christian, Pride...doesn't matter.
Bills cleaning house. Patriots rebuilding without GOAT coach. Jets are not only the Jets but they have a QB who hasn't thrown for 300 yards in his last 23 games. If it doesn't happen for the Dolphins this year, it never will.
Am I the only conservative Christian who didn’t totally hate the “He Gets Us” ad? Yes, it speaks “woke-ese.” It’s not for us; it’s for secular libs. There’s a risk it leads to heretical complacency. But if it gets some lost lib even to consider Our Lord, I’m not totally opposed.
You could argue about the #HeGetsUs ad or you could actually wash feet.
A thought: There's a parallel between what the He Gets Us ads are trying to do and what the Tracy Chapman/Luke Combs duet of Fast Car did -- both were trying to show something better than the chaos and polarization we have right now.
The HeGetsUs ads aren’t systematic theology lectures; They’re conversation starters. Some of you need to use your time better than to be angry at an ad that says Jesus washed feet.
@Jonnyrashid Like I told Tim, I'm always open to being corrected and trying to grow, but I just watched the video again and it seems like everyone washing feet would be classified in the "oppressor" category. Am I wrong about that?
Hot take on the He Gets Us ad from the Super Bowl: Yes, the money certainly could have been better spent on poverty alleviation. Yes, I have a serious concerns about the backers. BUT “Jesus doesn’t hate anyone” is a fundamentally good message, especially as a counter to the…

The one part of LeBron's career that doesn't get enough credit is that after two decades of basketball - when he could easily just be on a low key retirement tour like an aging band - he radiates an urgency to win now that we don't see in superstars half his age.
I think the Lord may have intentionally allowed us to have a certain amount of theological ambiguity about non-essentials. Because the church is also called to show how to disagree agreeably. Though we don’t often do it well…we desperately need that witness right now.
Narrator's voice: He was about to kiss the ring (again).
DeSantis: You can be the most worthless Republican in America, if you kiss the ring, Trump will say you are wonderful.
I don’t like how the last sentence of this tweet sounded. It lacked humility. It’s sorta grossing me out to look back on it. I’m sorry, you guys. I was bewildered and frustrated and should have stopped with the first tweet. I am forever in a battle with my own mouth. Forgive me.
It’s past time to learn to distinguish between the term evangelicals as a political sect and evangelistic people who preach Christ and only Christ and believe to their bones he’s the single solitary Savior of the world and the totality of all Christianity has and needs to thrive.…
I'm aiming to read through the whole Bible this year. Haven't done this in ages. Just hoping my enthusiasm doesn't die in Numbers. Leviticus keeps me entertained with what will get you booted from the camp and the lists of all the people you're not supposed to "know" biblically.
