Excellent correction to the wild misreading of the recent Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity.

Alexander Hamilton. Federalist 69 ,on the difference between the president and a king: "The President of the United States would be liable to be impeached, tried, and upon conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crime or misdemeanors, removed from office; and would afterwards be liable to prosecution and punishment in the ordinary course of law. The person of the King of Great-Britain is sacred and inviolable: There is no constitutional tribunal to which he is amenable; no punishment to which he can be subjected without involving the crisis of a national revolution."

The point is not that men who say they are women are a particular danger to women; the point is that men who say they are women are still men, and women’s privacy and dignity (and sometimes safety too) are compromised if we pretend otherwise.

Did you know that the FIRST thing defined as "HOLY" in the Bible is not God ... not a church or altar ... not the scripture ... but REST? Yet we often define ourselves by how busy we are—not how rested we are.

This church in Nigeria was burned to the ground by Islamic Fulani militants. In the US, Christians walk into churches with coffee shops and think of “persecution” as a culture rejecting their values. Meanwhile, Nigerian Christians are being massacred: 5 died on June 21st.

If you want to preach somewhere for five years, be entertaining. Every week. Keep them in stitches. If you want to preach somewhere for twenty-five years, go deep. Every week. Marinate them in the Word of God.

Good thread on the biblical basis for women serving in ministry, including pastor.
I affirm women in all roles of ministry leadership on the following basis: 1. Women arguably play every such role in Scripture except one. That's the OT priestly role that Hebrews 7 says is definitively fulfilled in Christ (so doesn't apply to this conversation).

The American College of Pediatricians just put out a 🔥🔥🔥 statement calling out all the major medical associations by name for pushing the gender transition craze on kids. They ask for these groups to "IMMEDIATELY stop the promotion of social affirmation, puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for children and adolescents who experience distress over their biological sex." The full @ACPeds statement ⬇️ "Therefore, given the recent research and the revelations of the harmful approach advocated by WPATH and its followers in the United States, we, the undersigned, call upon the medical professional organizations of the United States, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the  Endocrine Society, the Pediatric Endocrine Society, American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association, and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry to follow the science and their European professional colleagues and immediately stop the promotion of social affirmation, puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for children and adolescents who experience distress over their biological sex.  Instead, these organizations should recommend comprehensive evaluations and therapies aimed at identifying and addressing underlying psychological co-morbidities and neurodiversity that often predispose to and accompany gender dysphoria. We also encourage the physicians who are members of these professional organizations to contact their leadership and urge them to adhere to the evidence-based research now available.” They link to MANY studies on their site: doctorsprotectingchildren.or…

Life’s hard. Stuff’s painful. Disappoints come. Devil’s got a way to comfort you. He’s a liar. Don’t do something stupid. Choose faithfulness. Don’t give in to that temptation. Open your eyes and see that seduction for what it is. Hold tight to Jesus. He’s the way through. Oh, and don’t try to talk to me about the devil just being some archaic idea. I’ve lived too long and tangled too hard to believe that trash. Wake up. You have an enemy who wants to destroy you, shatter your relationships and shipwreck your faith.

This is an important insight in combatting our human tendency to respond in the same way we are treated. Always take the high road.
