Well, #magnoliameltdown we both limped through this year's race - you as a virtual event, and I on crutches. Let's try again next year!  h/t to the Fleet Feet coffee run gang for the route, and special thanks to Sophie for being the best cheerleader a daddy could want.

This coffee shop is so extra, it has reserved seating for one-legged people. #youllputyoureyeout #amputeelife

I recently shared the story of my crash and amputation on the Local Youth Worker (RYM (Reformed Youth Ministries)) with Reformed Seminary alum John Perritt. We discussed suffering with hope, and how parents and youth workers can prepare kids for the difficulties they'll face. bit.ly/RYM-Morgan

I enjoyed sitting down with my friend Brandon to discuss faith and suffering for his podcast. Give it a listen!

By the way, gang - we'll be giving away 25 copies of Dr. Waters' book. Don't miss it!

I was privileged to study with the men and women in the photo below. Over 80% of us received some level of financial aid from RTS, and the majority of us couldn't have been here without it. Will you partner with RTS to equip the next generation of pastors and counselors?

As if on cue, the shipment of the Waters books arrived at my desk 3 mins after the tweet! By the way, you don't have to work for RTS to get great deals on Crossway materials. Orders of 10 or more of a single title qualify for 40% off.

Yes! And the best thing about this, is that pastoral ministry which makes much of word, sacrament, and prayer accomplishes these things, whether intentional or not.

1 year ago today I made my first trip back to the campus of RTS Jackson after 6 unexpected weeks away. It has been a significant year for both of us! I'm very grateful for the privilege of serving alongside such a fantastic team in pursuit of such a critically important mission!

Can't wait! Christ calls us to his Table because he wants us to be assured that he has reconciled us to God, and that he will one day return for us. Is there something better to discuss over the lunch hour? Join us!

This is gonna be a good one. Don't miss it!

The book giveaway for the Jan RTS Jackson online forum was purchased from 10ofthose 🇬🇧 (UK), and came with a fun surprise! #10ofthose #jobperks

The degree to which I have benefited from the RTSJ chapel services, both as a student and a staff member, is greater than I can express. If you're in Jackson, join in. Too far to join? Get a small taste from the sermons and talks at rts.edu/resources/?fwp…

Sad to say farewell to Jackson friends (especially those at RTS Jackson & Pear Orchard PCA), but excited to head to Grace Pres. in Cookeville, TN as pastor-elect. Licensed and approved as stated stupply Tuesday. Up next - ordination exams! instagram.com/p/CZ0UZwaswJ9/…

Says one who models such an approach to ministry. I'm grateful for the time I had under the tutelage of jvfesko. You can spend a little time with him too this Thu at 12pm CT as he and Ligon Duncan discuss the importance of studying church history. buff.ly/3HGd87c

I received my formal theological training RTS Jackson, and was privileged to work there as well. Students are well served at all the RTS campuses, but Jackson holds unique opportunities, and it plays a critical role in the health of the institution as a whole. This is great news!

Ok, Benjamin L. Gladd here's that Christmas bling you wanted to see!

Unique opportunities to marvel at God's grace arise by reading consecutively through scripture. As DRD might put it - a chance to see we have a God willing to enter the muck of life. Also, good news has come to the awkward and strange.
