When you count each one of your beliefs as absolutely essential, change is never an option. When change is never an option, you have to hope the world stays exactly as it is, so as not to mess with your view of it. - Rachel Held Evans
You know the one thing that Scripture is actually clear about? The command for every Christ follower to reflect God’s just character in the world by seeking justice and always standing with oppressed & marginalized peoples.

When you hear the name "St Patrick," don’t think Lucky Charms cereal or little green Leprechauns. Think: “Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ…
Love this list!
Amen!
So much to ponder. "But they can talk and discuss and disagree without anyone trying to kick anyone else out. The love of Christ is actually possible for believers who live and think differently.” reformedjournal.com/jesus-unlimite…
Sometimes you can have a hazy shadow of an uncomfortable thought just sitting in the background every time you hear a familiar story. Then something or someone shines the floodlight in that direction and suddenly it seems ludicrous that you've never given voice to that idea. ⬇️
One of the severe limits of “saved/not saved” language is it leads to a myopic view of salvation. When this happens, many don’t see the need to be continually rescued from the enslaving powers of the world. In Christ we are: Saved Being Saved Will be Saved
There are a lot of trauma symptoms that we’re familiar with, but sometimes I think we need to pay more attention to things like chronic cynicism, certainty, critique…things that feel powerful and perhaps even righteous in the moment, but which actually do violence to our souls.
Have you noticed hardly anyone sings in church anymore? But meanwhile pub choirs are taking off around the world. What are they doing right that churches could learn from? mikefrost.net/what-churches-…

Still one of my favorites but yeah this is kind of a funny point.
World: “Follow your heart.” Jesus: “Follow me.” World: “Believe in yourself.” Jesus: “Believe in me.” World: “Discover yourself.” Jesus: “Deny yourself.” World: “Be true to you.” Jesus: “Be true to me.”
So well said.
The expectations for employees have been so high, far beyond their job descriptions and beyond their salary range, that by giving no extra effort, it’s as if they are on strike.- @CarlyVoinski careynieuwhof.com/4-reasons-your… via @cnieuwhof
Studies find a very weak correlation between wealth and contentment, and the more prosperous a society grows, the more common is depression. After basic needs are met, the things that human beings think will bring fulfillment and contentment don’t.
I know a lot of Christians who are rude about panhandlers, which is weird because Jesus told a story about a panhandler who went to heaven and a rude rich man who… well… didn’t.
If you were to pick up your Bible after a really long dry spell of thinking you'll get back into personal devotions again soon, and it morphed into two years, where would you begin?

Grateful for this little book from @RebeccMcLaugh. We’re offering it this Sunday for anyone looking for a little more on the resurrection… And for those who want to dive in even further, we’re inviting them to @AlphaUSA (which we’re offering in about 4 weeks).
Friends, if you truly care about the truth, you will want people to believe it. Say it, then, in a way that makes it as hearable as possible. Words take craftsmanship. You need truthful words. You need kind and gentle words. And you need apt, appropriate, beautiful words.
@TheAmberPicota I grew up in the 80s & 90s and I talked people EARS OFF, drew entire comic books I made up about my cats, and ran around the swampy woods, mixing stuff in a bucket like a bog witch. It was great honestly. Would do again! 😁
@kevinmnye1 If any other industry pulled the same crap that airlines do the consumers would riot.
It’s pretty wild how much time is wasted every day at every airport because of how committed we are to letting wealthier people sit in the front AND board first. Literally the least efficient way to load a plane, costing endless time and money, but we just do it anyway.

@LShalott I would have an identity focused theme. Biblical basis and empowering. Nothing about being attached to other people. Just you and how you were designed to be a full complete human. Food would be provided but options for restricted diets. My hubby was a restauranteur and is now a
@LShalott About an even split between the concept of "catastrophizing," and the hint "Have you ever considered you might have ADHD?"
@LShalott That I’m not too “extra.” Just because my parents didn’t always/don’t value certain things about me doesn’t mean that I’m not loveable/valuable/talented.
@LShalott That two things can be true at once. For example: My Dad was a good Dad in many ways and he was also a narcissistic abuser. Growing up in an abusive home one tends to see people as either all good or all bad. Recognizing the good parts doesn’t invalidate the abuse.
I hope everyone in the @CRCNA reads, takes to heart, and lives by what @sschat7 shares here in @crcbanner (especially the "considerations"). It is absolutely spot on. thebanner.org/features/2023/…
