@PastorMark Nationalism is idolatry. (So can be rationale behind Globalism, BTW). Reading history is of some use here. The world was full of Nationalism in the years preceding WWI.

Satan has been trying to globalize nations since the Tower of Babel. God created nationalism to prevent humans from creating a demonic counterfeit of heaven.

I finished my series of videos on the Screwtape Letters. Reading and Commetary. Not all are yet posted, but they will be all up by the New Year. Have a look: youtu.be/tRKLZ5A6ApQ

@JoshGarrels So bummed I haven't to a concert since you left the Westcoast. Now, more bummed, that you are in Manchester 3 days after I leave it.

Announcing three additional shows next month in the UK! 🇬🇧 Tickets: joshgarrels.com/shows

@WestJetNews @WestJet Do you have any idea what it's like to have so many plans that all hinge on getting someplace on a WestJet plane, and then to have WestJet communicate nothing for almost 2 weeks?

This morning, @WestJet began to ramp up its operations, as quickly and efficiently as possible; however, the full resumption of operations will take time and further cancellations will be required over the coming days.  Read more: westjet.com/en-ca/news/202…

@jpsandhu79 @WestJet Any idea why so many flights canceled out if Abbotsford?

My god @WestJet is the absolute worst. Was supposed to fly out to Abbotsford 9:00am this morning, kept getting delayed till 2:15pm then hour before cancelled all together and rebooked to fly to Edmonton tonight and from there to Abbotsford tomorrow at 12:00pm. This is ridiculous

@Bell I got a call from one of your robots this morning before 5am. That pisses me off. Not thinking positively about Bell today.

@timecaptales Impaling?

What others did I forget?

8 of history's evilest execution methods: 1. Crucifixion: The victim was tied or nailed to a wooden beam—or cross. Nails were pierced through the bones below the wrists to bear the weight of the person. It was a “brilliant” placement because no major blood vessels were hit—only the median nerve, which would cause the fingers to seize and the hands to flex down in an excruciating contracture. The feet were nailed to the vertical part of the cross, and once the legs weakened, the arms had to hold up the body, resulting in the shoulders being pulled from their sockets. The elbows and wrists would soon follow, with the arms now several inches longer. At this point, the chest had to bear the body’s weight, triggering respiratory problems, and eventual suffocation.

@CatelynDevlin I've been promoting O'Connor's work for years. Trying to make it easier for people to start reading--I read and comment. Here's "A Good Man is Hard to Find" youtu.be/SuNaMtHwikA

What is the benediction? And should we have one in our Sunday service? youtu.be/2BpzAftPdvM

/2 In 1984, we see the abolition of humanity. It's like C. S. Lewis and Orwell hung out and compared notes.  This video looks at 1984 through the lens of The Abolition of Man: youtu.be/RuUUxfsQ-Ko

1/ C. S. Lewis believed that to remain human, the head must rule the belly through the chest and the foundations of these relationships is the Tao. The Party in 1984 seeks absolute power and therefore, necessarily, has to stept of the Tao. # AbolitionofMan #CSLewis #1984

@spaethon Tipping, in our context, makes sense. It's a moral issue. At least it is for Christians: youtu.be/Ogf3sO0aff8

Christian Bonnier, 23 of Florida, took a trip to Italy and realized tipping is virtually non-existent there. He wants the US to know that our tipping culture is out of control. I could not possibly agree more.

This video discusses the reasons we might want to give more thought to the modern liturgy of contemporary Evangelical worship. youtu.be/4wfUZvCmtG0 /2

@WorshipLeader Do we think enough about the liturgies we've added to Sunday services when we dropped the old ones? /1

FYI!!! “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” is on NBC right now! Catch it!

This video explores the direct connection between the Grinch and Grendel, the monster in the Anglo-Saxon Beowulf. youtu.be/EIqXrnnK8lc

How the Grinch stole Cristmas, the original from 1966 is my favourite. The whole story is derived from a story more than 1000 years old. Details in the comments.
