Anyone know of folks doing good, effective youth ministry in a small church context? (CC: Chad Brooks 🚢 | #ProductivePastor I feel like you might have some good thoughts here)

Do I title my sermon on Proverbs 7 “Screaming Infidelities” y/n?

Whenever my five year old wants to listen to Phoebe Bridgers she asks if we can listen to "Taylor Swift's friend."

I enjoyed having this insightful conversation with Collin Hansen about Christianity and the problem of evil (the topic of his latest book) for my church's podcast. youtu.be/y-Ohbv3-XKw?si…

Beautiful Lord’s Day worship here in Birmingham. - Hymns: 1) Come, Thou Almighty King 2) Come, O Spirit, Dwell Among Us 3) How Firm a Foundation - Sermon: Proverbs 9 - Celebrated the sacrament of baptism - Welcomed a handful of visitors - Gorgeous Pentecost flowers

The biblical term for this is “principalities and powers.”

Just had a 17-year-old kid tell me he wants to get baptized. We haven’t even started gathered worship yet and this Lord’s Day is already shaping up to be a huge win for the Kingdom of God.

I'm on a mission to rescue as many funerals as possible from bad theology. Fellow clergy, I invite you to join me.

I think I could be completely content spending the rest of my life rotating through Middlemarch, Lord of the Rings, and Kristin Lavransdatter.

Pastors, ignore every single voice on here telling you what you should be preaching tomorrow. You’re called by the Holy Spirit, you’re equipped by the Holy Spirit.

George Matheson was absolutely hardcore: “My heart cannot freely move Till thou hast wrought its chain; Enslave it with thy matchless love, And deathless it shall reign.”

The thing to remember is that Christianity doesn't primarily offer a better way to think about the world or to deal with your emotional issues or to run an effective civilization, it primarily offers a solution to the problem of death.

Birmingham pals, this will be good.

Church ladies are good actually.
