Gateway Seminary is hiring. We are looking for a director of our PhD/ThM program. Deliberately small, laboring for rigour in a highly collegial context. Job link is below.

Thank you @JF_Martel for this moving meditation on the mystery of art in a reductionist world. A lovely Saturday read.
Books I’m teaching at @calbaptist this semester. Absolutely no one is having more fun than me.

Many sermons from the Gospels where the focus is explicitly on the person of Jesus—never mind from the OT—are far from Christ-centered. How is this possible? The preacher has looked into the text principally to find himself and his congregation, not to find Christ.

Might be too late for this but I move that @WilliamsChessa gets sent home from #Sbc2026 early today. I love you Doc @WilliamsChessa 😘

Hot take:
This is more worthy of your attention than most of the business items that will come to #sbc26 over the next two days.
I’m grateful to Southeastern Theological Review for the opportunity to contribute an article on prayer in worship for this special issue on biblical worship. It’s an honor to be included alongside such an outstanding group of scholars.
