Christianity does not rise or fall on a set of teachings. It rises or falls on an event. An empty tomb. A risen Savior.

Only one religion is based on a single, testable, historical event. If you haven’t at least considered the evidence for the resurrection, NOW is the time.

Some heroes wear capes — Chief Aaron Edwards wears blue.

The term "theological liberalism" is thrown around a lot. When push comes to shove though, it still boils down to Richard Niebuhr's summation of what theological liberalism truly is: "A God without wrath brought men without sin into a kingdom without judgment through the ministrations of a Christ without a cross" (Kingdom of God in America, 193). Liberal/progressive Christianity is more than that but it is no less than that, and it will always come down to it. Niebuhr's words 89 years ago are just as applicable in 1937 as they are today.

Jack Hughes, who lost a tooth on the ice today, after scoring the gold medal goal in OT, “I love the USA… we’re so proud to be Americans today.” Perfection. If you have the good fortune to rep the greatest country in world history do it like this:

@TexasChance These are the simple facts.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is the best Indiana jones movie and it’s not particularly close. 47m in and you get Sean Connery? Are you kidding me? Better writing. Better acting. Better everything than the original. It’s also the most rewatchable. 10/10.

There are only two places a believer can be: at home in the body or at home with the Lord. 2 Cor 5:6-8

I’m sad for two little kids I don’t even know today. I’m sad for the country I love. I’m angry at those who promote, incite, and celebrate violence and death. We have a Kingdom to Build. Come quickly, Lord Jesus.

28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.  (Romans 1:28–32, NIV)

24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. 26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.  (Romans 1:24–27, NIV)

My mind can’t help but go to Romans 1 today… 21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.  (Romans 1:21–23, NIV)

Charlie Kirk, a young husband and father was murdered in front of the world today. Unthinkable. Unbelievable. Horrific. Come quickly, Lord Jesus.

Acquitting the guilty and condemning the innocent—the Lord detests them both.  (Proverbs 17:15, NIV)

@ThrillaRilla369 We moved out of trailer into a house when I was 9. Was completely mesmerized by the doorbell.

For those who didn't grow up privileged, name something you thought was a luxury when you were a kid

It’s enlightening to see people respond to a demonically inspired act by attempting to shame people for praying.

Those who espouse ideas that reject God’s design for men and women will, as a matter of principle, fail to value God’s image in men and women.

It does no good to decry the means of evil action if you’re going to affirm the evil that motivates the action.
