Id become Anglican before I’d be a Baptist again. Thankfully I’m a happy Presbyterian.
This is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard.
Don't get your theology from William Lane Craig.
Following Allistair Begg would be so hard, but this would be so much better if he would have said, “Guys, Allistair Begg was a once in a generation preacher. I am no Allistair Begg, but I love you. Have mercy on me 🤣”
On Sunday, Parkside Church named Dan Schillero as Allistair Begg's successor, taking on the role of senior pastor. This was part of his sermon sharing how he wants the church to judge him by, openly inviting their critique:
My friends, this is a converted middle aged Redneck who knows how the Lord has gifted him to serve his church for their annual potluck and worship service at the local park.
Just passed this truck on the highway. What do you think he’s going to be using all those chairs for?
This is one of those things that grew out of a joke in staff meeting. It should have stayed in staff meeting.
Churches, you don't have to advertise your baptism services this way.
The Elephant Room was one of the dumbest things ever conceived. Look at the guys on that platform 🤦♂️
🧵 The Rise & Fall of the “Elephant Room” In 2011, seven high-profile pastors gathered for an unscripted roundtable called Elephant Room. It promised raw dialogue on church, theology, & ministry. But instead, sparked a controversy that reshaped the future of evangelicalism.
As one who grew up with Tiger, I only slightly disagree. Scottie has some Tiger in him. The difference is the emotion and the way Tiger won the crowds. Scottie is awesome, by there is nothing like prime Tiger.
I hate to sound old. But I wish you youngins on this app could have seen Tiger in his prime. If you think Scottie is in the same neighborhood, you are mistaken. (Scottie is great, like really great, he just ain’t close to Tiger).
Oftentimes it only takes one tweet to know who to follow/unfollow.
They have created a new religion.
'Drag clown' Julian, who is also a seminary student and ministry candidate, puts on her drag makeup throughout the service, because why the heck not.
#TheOpenChampionship will be determined by weather. If Scottie catches a break and can play the next three rounds without rain, this thing is over.
Now this is how Presbyterians ought to dress. I nominate any elder wearing this for GA moderator in Louisville next year.
Young R.C. Sproul preaching.
Im working on Colossians 3:18-4:1 for an upcoming sermon. Anybody have good resources on NT household codes?
Ive been on hold with the IRS trying to fix something for 2.5 hours. I've spoken to one (very helpful) human for about 3 minutes during that time. Lots of elevator music
My library is generally open for folks to use, but there are certain books I will not lend out: ones underlined and scribbled in, tear stained; books so dear I cant stand the thought of not getting them back. One of those is Tappert's edition of Luther's Letters. Dont even ask.
This is the Book of Ecclesiastes in 5 minutes. Christ alone satisfies. Christ alone provides real joy in a broken world. Glad Scottie knows this.
Scottie Scheffler just gave one of the best (and deepest) press conference answers ever heard.
Your weekly reminder that the Mosaic Covenant is an administration of the covenant of grace in which a works principles functions typologically to teach us our sin and misery and point us to Christ.
The Netflix documentary on Nolan Ryan is fantastic. He retired when I was just 6 years old, but remains my favorite ball player of all time.
