Share this to save his life. If you make him famous, the Iranian regime might not execute him tomorrow. #ErfanSoltani

Tomorrow is a huge opportunity for Pastors and churches to pray for the freedom of the Iranian people. Many are Christians who are courageously giving their lives to topple the terrorist government and its radical leaders. May the power of God rest upon them and blow open the doors for the Gospel

DFW-area pastor here. For onlookers, there's a misleading freakout about this every year. Here's what's true... 1) It's not a church service, it's a special event they do for the city and the city loves it 2) They don't use tithe dollars to do it; they sell tix (at CONSIDERABLY lower rates than anyone else in DFW would charge for a production that scale) 3) If I understand correctly, they use some of the recouped money for benevolence purposes 4) They share a very clear gospel with an enormous number of people 5) All the culturally dignified Christians who mock it are also the ones that talk about how Christians should engage the arts (but by "arts" they only mean the type of arts that high brow progressives value) The annual freakout about it is one of the silliest things on Christian Social Media

Well said.

@conservmillen Same sister

I love him so much

@jk_rowling Thank you for being an example of courage and femininity. As a daddy of 2 girls (and 2 boys). I am thankful for women standing up for young girls. At the expense of your time, scrutiny, etc. I know many who are thankful for you, someone so influential being so courageous.

You’ve asked me several questions on this thread and accused me of avoiding answering, so here goes. I believe a woman is a human being who belongs to the sex class that produces large gametes. It’s irrelevant whether or not her gametes have ever been fertilised, whether or not she’s carried a baby to term, irrelevant if she was born with a rare difference of sexual development that makes neither of the above possible, or if she’s aged beyond being able to produce viable eggs. She is a woman and just as much a woman as the others. I don’t believe a woman is more or less of a woman for having sex with men, women, both or not wanting sex at all. I don’t think a woman is more or less of a woman for having a buzz cut and liking suits and ties, or wearing stilettos and mini dresses, for being black, white or brown, for being six feet tall or a little person, for being kind or cruel, angry or sad, loud or retiring. She isn't more of a woman for featuring in Playboy or being a surrendered wife, nor less of a woman for designing space rockets or taking up boxing. What makes her a woman is the fact of being born in a body that, assuming nothing has gone wrong in her physical development (which, as stated above, still doesn't stop her being a woman), is geared towards producing eggs as opposed to sperm, towards bearing as opposed to begetting children, and irrespective of whether she's done either of those things, or ever wants to. Womanhood isn't a mystical state of being, nor is it measured by how well one apes sex stereotypes. We are not the creatures either porn or the Bible tell you we are. Femaleness is not, as trans woman Andrea Chu Long wrote, ‘an open mouth, an expectant asshole, blank, blank eyes,’ nor are we God’s afterthought, sprung from Adam’s rib. Women are provably subject to certain experiences because of our female bodies, including different forms of oppression, depending on the cultures in which we live. When trans activists say 'I thought you didn't want to be defined by your biology,' it’s a feeble and transparent attempt at linguistic sleight of hand. Women don't want to be limited, exploited, punished, or subject to other unjust treatment because of their biology, but our being female is indeed defined by our biology. It's one material fact about us, like having freckles or disliking beetroot, neither of which are representative of our entire beings, either. Women have billions of different personalities and life stories, which have nothing to do with our bodies, although we are likely to have had experiences men don't and can't, because we belong to our sex class. Some people feel strongly that they should have been, or wish to be seen as, the sex class into which they weren't born. Gender dysphoria is a real and very painful condition and I feel nothing but sympathy for anyone who suffers from it. I want them to be free to dress and present themselves however they like and I want them to have exactly the same rights as every other citizen regarding housing, employment and personal safety. I do not, however, believe that surgeries and cross-sex hormones literally turn a person into the opposite sex, nor do I believe in the idea that each of us has a nebulous ‘gender identity’ that may or might not match our sexed bodies. I believe the ideology that preaches those tenets has caused, and continues to cause, very real harm to vulnerable people. I am strongly against women's and girls' rights and protections being dismantled to accommodate trans-identified men, for the very simple reason that no study has ever demonstrated that trans-identified men don't have exactly the same pattern of criminality as other men, and because, however they identify, men retain their advantages of speed and strength. In other words, I think the safety and rights of girls and women are more important than those men's desire for validation. I sincerely hope that answers your questions. You may still disagree, but as I hope this shows, I’m more than happy to have this debate.

The Christian Super Bowl Ad They SHOULD Have Made A group known as 'He Gets Us' released an advert during the Super Bowl which, whilst perhaps well intentioned, failed to convey anything of the gospel to the hundreds of millions who saw it. Here's my take on what they should have done. #HeSavesUs

@justann321 Thank you!

Please pray for this baby. Thank you.

@wordsfromwags Thank you brother. And Amen!

You know I am and have been. Father thank you for Your perfection and the gift of Lottie. Be glorified in her life and in the continued faithfulness of her Mom & Dad. Comfort them. Strengthen them. Do exceedingly abundantly beyond what you ask or think in this instance s you do all things. We trust you Father and thank you for Your care of us.

This is our beautiful 26 week unborn daughter. She apart from a miracle has Trisomy 13. Which means she will die shortly after she is born. If you see this, would you pray for God to heal our daughter. Her name is Lottie. #trisomy #trisomy13 #miracle #baby #love #prayers
