Of course they do. 🤦

Thank you very much for watching and taking the time to share that encouragement!

If quoting Jesus directly doesn’t make you a heretic to “Christians” these days, quoting His mom certainly will.

Our church was accused of “trying to hard to be hipster” which apparently was a “Vibe 7 years ago” for…

Posting an image directly quoting a Bible verse.

America is a Biblical Babylon.

There are no ICE officers in the Kingdom of God.

I do not believe so.

Celebrating Advent means living into it by practicing a generous way of love and care for our neighbours as we partner with Jesus to bring peace on Earth.

Stop Bill C-12 - Migrant Rights Network Send an Email Now! Bill C-12 is a cruel and violent law that aims to create a mass deportation machine: One-Year Refugee Deadline: Bill C-12 blocks anyone in Canada over one year from claiming refugee...

Dear 🇨🇦 friends:

🛑Let’s Stop Bill C-12!!!🛑

Bill C-12 is a cruel & violent law that aims to create a mass deportation machine.

This law goes against our Canadian values, & it is certainly not the way of Jesus.

Is there anything more American than committing war crimes? 🤔

I love the idea of “Buy Nothing Day.”

But for those with little, Black Friday/Cyber Monday etc is a time when they can afford things at a more reasonable price.

A strong no to greed & excess. But always room for compassion for those who are just trying to make do &

Eating turkeys doesn’t preclude the possibility of other foods and other celebrations.

In my family we believe in the Trinity of Turkeys:

Thanksgiving
Christmas
Easter

And since I’m from a fundamentalist background, this Biblicist recognizes a fourth turkey for American Thanksgiving.

Me, a Canadian, every fourth Thursday in November:

One of the best parts of having a 🇨🇦/🇺🇸 mixed family is that we now get to enjoy two Thanksgivings.

I, for one, am in favour of more 🦃 consumption.

They’re delicious & it helps out those modern day 🦖s in their place.

(Which is, of course, my stomach.)

🔥🔥🔥ANY HOT TAKES???🔥🔥🔥

I’m preaching on Genesis 22 tomorrow.

That’s where Abraham nearly sacrifices his son Isaac.

It’s… a pretty disturbing passage.

Any hot takes you’d like to share?

I’ve finished my prep, but I’m open to making edits!

Look, Grok is entirely useless.

There may be AI that’s more than an easily manipulated chat-bot, but that’s certainly not available to the public.

What we have is entirely artificial, completely unintelligent, and obviously manipulated.

ICE is antichrist.

Abolish ICE.

This process that God has chosen means that for us to receive the authoritative message of God, we have to get it through the human instruments he used.

~John H. Walton
New Explorations in the Lost World of Genesis
(2/2)

God's authority is vested in the human instruments he used to produce Scripture.

It is God's authority but their agency—that is, working through their language, their communication style, their genres, and their cultural understandings.

~John H. Walton

“Christian” can mean anything.

The followers of Christ will follow Christ.

Our actions will tell the truth about what we believe.

And our neighbours will experience that truth as love.

“It will be our love, not our opinions, which will be our greatest contribution to the world.” - Bob Goff

You cannot follow Jesus while being a patriot.

You cannot serve two masters.
