Unlikely.

I’ve enjoyed connecting with many here. Thank you for your informative and often very kind posts. I’ll be signing off later this week and wish everyone well.

My assurance of heaven - closer every day - is so rooted in his prayer that we will be with him where he is. What a prayer. What a desire! He wants us with him forever. Astonishing. He loved us.

John 17 - so great! Jesus prays for the holiness of his people, the unity of his people, the protection of his people, the mission of his people, & the safe arrival of his people in glory. I have exactly zero confidence in our ability today but total confidence in Jesus' prayers.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Pass it on.

When Christ called his first apostles they were "casting their nets" and "mending their nets" (Matt 4). Both casting and mending are the essential work of ministry - seeking to bring people to faith and seeing the broken and torn restored/equipped. Let’s grow churches doing both.

☑️ Blue check getting paid for posts
☑️ Holocaust denial in the top line
☑️ No community note

Said it before, will say it again: Musk has likely made Holocaust denial more lucrative than any time in history.

Look, the world has gone after him. - John 12

And so it shall. But before this we must give thanks that he went after the world!

Still true.

Still there and following

Unity in the Church is
* Historical - one with the Apostles in the Faith (Jn 17)
* Spiritual - “of the Spirit” (Ephesians 4)
* Personal - we can “dwell together in unity” in the household of God (Ps 133)

With Jesus, let us pray and strive for this unity today as a witness to his love.

We are all in the heating and lighting business.

“He was a burning and shining light.” - Jesus about John the Baptist.

In these often chilly, dark days, bring the luminous flame of Christ’s mercy to all.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator.

He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

For no particular reason, what the Commonwealth of Virginia thinks about kings.

The Christian’s Vocation: A Life of Generous Care for the Poor — David P. Cassidy One cannot separate one's actions towards those broken by want and violence from one's faith any more than one can separate the heart from the body and expect to live. It is impossible.

The sermons offered today begin with empty pantries, with broken, barren messengers going to a friend in the middle of the night and saying "Lend me three loaves, for a friend has come to me from afar and I have nothing to set before him."

Looking at the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5, I can't help observing that any notion of holiness that makes us less loving, less kind, less joyful, less patient, less peaceful, etc. is, well... mistaken. Holiness is love on fire not condescension on ice.

Sometimes my prayers only get as far as

“Our Father”

And that is ok.

Terrible trade long term but it’s ok this season for sure!!

Make Christianity Christian again.

Dostoyevsky in Brothers Karamazov:

"The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others."

Augustine, Aquinas, the Veep, and the Ordo Amoris — David P. Cassidy Scripture teaches us, “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.” (Galatians 6:9-10). The Christian’s responsibility and p...

"Jesus...dismisses a limited love as...out step with the much more expansive love of God....even when we first care for the needs of our family and the family of God, we are not to then look upon our responsibilities as fulfilled but as begun."

Trump evangelicals are going after Christian institutions that take federal funds. Thousands and thousands of Christian organizations, including Trump acolyte Franklin Graham's Samaritan's Purse, have taken federal money to help advance

Some Trump evangelicals are also attacking evangelical organizations who have taken money–any money– from the federal government, including USAID. Most of these attacks are based on bad information, outright falsehoods, and politically-motivated spin. currentpub.com/2025/02/07/t...

Prayer is not a utility plugged in to get our will done but an invitation to communion with God where we discover his will and give ourselves to his purpose.

“This do in remembrance” -said by One who never forgets his promise & watches over his word to do it. We are spiritual amnesiacs but he wont forget us or forsake us. His promise and purpose will stand forever.
