Never buy your child a digital device. Instead, purchase digital devices for yourself — devices that you own and that serve a specific purpose. Lend those devices to your children when they meet specific needs in your family. It’s a small shift in mindset, but a significant step in teaching tech stewardship.

On this Good Friday, let's not reduce the cross to one of its dimensions. Christ's death is a multi-dimensional accomplishment within the story of the kingdom of God. And it's all possible because he died in our place, for our sins. Hallelujah! What a savior!

You can be against religious liberty or you can be a Baptist, but you cannot be both.

The defining emotional challenge of our time is anxiety, the fear of what might be instead of the courageous pursuit of what could be. - Andy Crouch

The creation of the Father, ruined by sin, is restored in the death of the Son, & re-created by the grace of the HS into a kingdom of God.

This tweet represents the lowest point of dishonesty to which we can descend when we sell out to the crass tone of secular politics instead of following the way of Christ.
In Louisiana this spring and at SBC annual meeting this summer, Brent Leatherwood sided against the innocent preborn now he leads the ethics and policy arm of the SBC. We glory in our shame.

From ERLC's @LeatherwoodTN: "You are not going to get me to say I want to throw mothers behind bars. That is not the view from me, the pro-life movement, this convention..."

If everyone would read this book, the world would be a better place. It's profoundly revealing about why we disagree so much, and what to do about it.

One way to find out if there is "liberal drift" in the SBC: Ask actual liberals outside the SBC if they identify with the theological trajectory of the SBC. This stuff is just nonsense.

So many of us live by a Santa Claus theology, believing that God will love, accept, and bless us if we are good enough. Jesus came because we are naughty and not good enough. Life in God's Kingdom, experience God's love is a free gift.

In the Kingdom of God, the royal family does not take up their thrones, they pick up their crosses.

There are many reasons to mourn the final Together for the Gospel even as I’m looking forward to attend next year. @CollinHansen’s reflections are worth reading: thegospelcoalition.org/artic…
