Christian leaders, LEAD. Do not shrink back in cowardice. Be bold. Be clear. Do not assume people know where you stand. History will prove this to be a most critical hour and our silence to have been our shameful complicity.

To a world determined to bring about change through dominion, God gives us the cross, which stands in opposition to our will to power, eternally reminding us God saved the world through powerlessness. #TheCultureTranslator #AxisIdeas

The hinge of the story on which all its meaning turns is the incarnation, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Listened to a treasure trove of teen parenting advice Axis technology and teens summit. This org is SO helpful for parents of 10 - 26ish yr olds.

It’s possible to have a life that doesn’t appear fruitful to the world, but is faithful to God. This is the foolishness of the cross. The cross looks like failure, but is the greatest act of faithfulness which has led to incalculable fruitfulness.

What is the prophetic task of the church today? Walter Brueggemann suggest that it is “to tell the truth in a society that lives in illusion, grieve in a society that practices denial, and express hope in a society that lives in despair.” That’s just like Jesus.

It is a terrible misunderstanding of the Gospel to think that it offers us salvation while relieving us of responsibility for the life of the world, for the sin and sorrow and pain with which our human life and that of our fellow men and women are so deeply interwoven.

Twelfth Night: the last day of Christmastide. Tomorrow is the Epiphany of our Lord Jesus Christ, a feast day in the church bigger than Christmas in the earliest centuries, and still celebrated with great festivity in Latin countries. Our Epiphany star goes up tomorrow.

At Advent we prayed for the Prince of Peace to enter our world and redeem us from our violence. Now, we pray for peace on earth and goodwill toward men.
