The voice of “the people” ≠ the voice of God.

“For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness.” (Psalm‬ ‭84‬:‭10‬)

Truer words were never spoken, Helen.

“What happened about the statues”: how a neglected chapter in The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe can help re-enchant the Church What the chapter in the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe where Aslan revives the petrified Narnians can teach us about the character and mission of the Church.

Who but God, who has declared the end from the beginning, knows what this year holds? So may we all entrust ourselves to Him who holds our future and our hope and ourselves, in hands that were pierced for us. /3

My prayer for you, and for all of us, in 2025 is: More love, more joy, more peace, more patience, more kindness, more goodness, more faithfulness, more gentleness, and more self-control. I know the Lord will grant these to His people through His Holy Spirit in us, for this is His will for us. /2

Beloved, as we drift off into this new year—I commend you as always to the care of the One who neither slumbers nor sleeps. He is the Creator of time, the Lord of history, the One who hung the moon and stars so that we might mark our days. /1

Today I made a hearty venison & sweet potato stew. The deer and sweet potatoes were given to me by church members. So good! 👨‍🍳💋👌🏻

Beloved, I commend you to the care of the One who neither slumbers nor sleeps. May His light illuminate your darkness, for the darkness—even the darkest depths of your sin and misery—does not overcome His glorious light!

I mean, it’s true. #80svibes

Told y’all I’m possibly a gnome.

one that seemingly anticipates and refutes the doctrine of Pelagius a few centuries later; and an equally rich doctrine of Incarnation and atonement. It’s really beautiful. /2

It’s important to note that Irenaeus was discipled by Polycarp, who grew up under the preaching of John the Apostle. This is really the closest doctrinal link we’ve got to the preaching of the Apostles, and we see a robust doctrine of human sin and inability— /1

“Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; proclaim his deeds among the peoples. Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell about all his wondrous works!” (Psalm‬ ‭105‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭CSB‬‬)

How does the Incarnation not give one holy chills every time it’s proclaimed?

Sorry, I wracked my brain trying to come up with a more winsome acrostic to summarize the NPP. I don’t believe the summary itself is unfair.

The Naaman Syndrome In the days of Elisha, a man named Naaman nearly missed his healing because he despised the rather boring and ordinary means the prophet said would cure him from his deadly disease. Does the church…

New post at the Sermonator! How is the American Church today like Naaman? What can we learn from his story?

Random musings on this Friday afternoon. I hope you find / have found your circus.

Goodnight, y’all. I commend you to the care of the One who neither slumbers nor sleeps.

“What did I know, what did I know
of love’s austere and lonely offices?”

Those words have haunted me for 23 years now—the first time I read the poem.

Who else?

Hope everyone had a KILLER Friday the 13th!

Wow! “God feeds the whole world through the Baby that Mary is nursing.” If that’s not true, then nothing matters.

But if it is true—and I don’t just believe it, I depend on it—then nothing else matters more than that.
