Y’all, @katarmstrong1 can preach! It was such a nice surprise to show up to Bent Tree this morning and discover that she was the guest preacher. Great work, Kat!

TODAY IS THE DAY! Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who preordered this book. I am genuinely praying frequently that it blesses you and glorifies God (and makes you open your Bible!).

Today is launch day for The Ballot and the Bible from my beloved friend and former student Kaitlyn Schiess. You’re going to want to get your hands on this book!

Happy birthday, Ruby Bridges! This is your annual reminder that Ruby Bridges is alive and, if you’re a millennial like me, probably about the same age as your parents.

A church that sees the cross of Jesus as the central event of history can never identify any political order with the reign of God.

Only half of the pastor’s work is to gather the people together for worship. The other half is to send them back to their daily tasks equipped to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world. If we forget this second part, the other can be positively dangerous.

The King reigns from the tree. The reign of God has indeed come upon us, and its sign is not a golden throne but a wooden cross.

The ‘secular’ society is not a neutral area into which we can project the Christian message. It is an area already occupied by other gods. We have a battle on our hands. We are dealing with principalities and powers.

The choice for the church in every age will always be, Will our identity be shaped by Scripture or by our culture—by the biblical story or the cultural story?

“Ash Wednesday is full of joy.... The source of all sorrow is the illusion that of ourselves we are anything but dust. God is all our joy and in him our dust can become splendor.” — Thomas Merton
