Jesus's kingdom is not 'right-wing.' But it's not 'left-wing' either. It will be so radically different to anything manmade that we can barely comprehend a glimpse of its wonders. “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has prepared for those who love him”

Yes, I can't help thinking there's a deliberate attempt by some in high places to cause more division in society and create echo chambers. Not healthy!

No, but I read a interesting substack article about taking the Italian B1 test! Maybe some of the advice might be relevant?

thank you, it must be wonderful to speak a language well. I hope I'll get there eventually!

This picture makes my heart sing with the joy of a big intellectual project! I am grappling with Italian prepositions, and pronouns and that's hard enough - learning a whole new alphabet must be even more challenging.

Yes, most definitely, although some secular viewpoints have been imposed on people like religion and that is also problematic. Schools should be a place for critical thinking and exploring all the evidence rather than have beliefs imposed on them.

I follow a channel that looks at Bible verses and how Trump could be the antichrist. While I'm not 100% convinced by the arguments I am stunned that so many Christians see his government as a force for good.

she is absolutely adorable! Is she a maltipoo? She looks a little like my dog who is.

I never heard of those ones, but yeah Ramona is one I enjoyed as an adult. There were some fairy books my daughter loved that were so dull to read, it's nice when they are written by quality writers.

How exciting! That is such a sweet gift. I loved reading my daughter chapter books at that age. The Ramona series was our favourite.

I hope it works for you! It was a lot easier finding experts when twitter was in it's heydey.

I don't think it's about being dumb and mean. There are forces out there manipulating people's minds to think Trump is a saviour.I used to follow new age psychics who were receiving info from 'spirit guides' saying that Trump was a 'lightworker'. The manipulation goes much further than many realise.

Lol, the struggle is real, I live in Italy and there is too much tempting pasta and pizza!

thank you!

yes please! Just saw your post in the Binders

This looks like a fascinating read, I just got the audiobook! I am from the UK and became a Christian a few years ago. I have been so shocked at how even British christians are jumping on this nationalistic version of the faith especially since the election.
