BOWLING ALONE
In his landmark 2000 book, Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community, Harvard professor Robert Putnam makes the case that Americans have become a nation of loners. He cites declining membership in groups like the PTA, Kiwanis, churches, book clubs, garden clubs, political groups, and, yes, even in bowling leagues. Putnam shows that we are increasingly engaging in privatized forms of leisure (like watching TV, surfing the Internet, playing video games) rather than connecting with others. Though our lives are increasingly peopleless, our hardwired need for connections pines away deep within our souls. Technology designed to enhance the quality of our lives is driving us apart. This loss of connectedness with others is not some nebulous intangible but a factor that affects the quality of our lives.

Book Santa made another appearance at @KeyMinistry HQ. My endorsement... " Paul Pettit and Jason Epps blend the unique experiences of a seminary professor with a hidden disability and a community church pastor with a very visible disability in offering a model for welcoming everyone to church - from a person in a wheelchair to a young adult with autism to a family of a child with severe challenges regulating emotions and behavior."

everything happens for a reason is not in the bible but "God promises to work all things to good for those who love him" is.

'Pistol Pete' Maravich sharing his testimony of faith in Jesus Christ in 1987 less than one year before his death at the age of 40:
"I want all of you to know this tonight about Peter Maravich. You may never have heard of me. It makes no difference. I'm just one person on this earth saved by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. I want you to know this, that the change that came into my life was Jesus Christ.
It was not winning. I won all my life. I won every trophy, award, everything you can think of, but every time I won something, I wanted something more. I had to win again. It wasn't money, because money'll buy you everything but happiness. It'll pay your fare at every place but Heaven. Material things—I've driven everything some of you strive for from Rolls Royces to BMWs to Mercedes to Porsches. It wasn't religion because in the name of religion, Jesus Christ was placed upon that cross.
And the purest thing about Christianity is the fact that it's your choice. You can't work. You can't earn. I knew that, and I understood it now.
I want you to know this. The last thing I'd like to say is this, next week I'll be inducted into the Hall of Fame. I'll get that big ring. In fact, it's a bigger ring than I would have got for the championship, but I'll tell you something about all the awards. They all pale to the glory of Christ and what He's done in my life. It's amazing what He has done in my life.
I wouldn't trade my position in Christ for a thousand NBA championships or a thousand Hall of Fame rings or for a hundred billion dollars. There's nothing like the joy of Jesus Christ in your life."

Tim Tebow pulls out a map to expose the 111,000 unique IP addresses of individuals who are downloading child sexual assault material (CSAM) in the United States
“These are unique IP addresses that on peer-to-peer networks are downloading, sharing, and distributing child rape images under the age of 12.”
No child should be subject to sexual abuse.
Every single person involved in sexually exploiting a child must be removed from society.

Proof that all the left-wing riots and protests nationwide are coordinated and financially backed.
A woman caught at an Atlanta riot has been showing up at protests across the city again and again.
Journalist David Khait identified her at an anti-ICE protest— then found her at May Day, pro-Iran rallies, anti-Trump demonstrations, and outside Atlanta’s ICE office.
She admitted she’s with the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL).
Khait traced the operation:
- PSL sends money to chapters nationwide
- Activists are paid to organize and attend protests
- The same group is tied to unrest in Atlanta and Los Angeles
It’s all organized and funded.
Well done @David_Khait
