@NRBAssociation Not all opposition is from beyond the church. Regardless of how conservative you are, even mild, biblically centered criticism of the current administration is met with vitriolic responses and accusations of wokeness by those claiming to be Christians.

The new era of Christian media starts now. As we enter 2026, the primary challenge facing Christian communicators is no longer technological. Access, scale, and distribution are readily available. The challenge is whether we possess the conviction to speak truthfully (1 Peter 3:15-16) in a culture where biblical truth is labeled "extremism" and clarity is punished as "intolerance." Will Christian communicators exercise courage or default to self-censorship in the new year? In 2025, thousands gathered at the NRB International Christian Media Convention to be sharpened as iron sharpens iron: to be equipped, encouraged, and inspired to proclaim truth to a hostile culture and decaying world. As we step into a new year and the 250th anniversary of American independence, we do so with clear-eyed resolve. This Nation was founded on Christian principles: that our rights come from God, not government; that truth is fixed, not fluid; and that liberty depends on moral restraint. Communicators have a responsibility to defend and advance these biblical truths in the public square, not retreat from them. Our 2026 priorities reflect that responsibility, and we're excited to further that mission at the NRB 2026 Convention in Nashville. Together, let’s step boldly into this new golden era, confident that influence follows faithfulness and God’s truth continues to transform lives and shapes nations. From all of us at NRB, we wish you a Happy New Year.

Hey @johnrich, saw your TVA interview. Reminded me of Pat Buchanan’s 1978 “The New American Right,” criticizing TVA as an example of gov overreach/infringement of individual liberties; suggested TVA be dismantled in favor of local control/private initiatives. #PatWasRight

Avoid using @Avis (and sister company @Budget)! Biggest Ripoff company going. Got scammed at a local Avis location, wound up with a several hundred $$ charge on my card and am getting a MAJOR stonewall from Avis corporate in refunding my $$. Use another company!

@SouthwestAir Ha! The SW customer experience hasn’t evolved. Ever. The cattle call boarding experience is like air travel in a banana republic. Only thing we lack are chickens and a goat.

@Travelwithchris We appreciate your feedback, Chris! We're always looking to evolve the customer experience. Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. -Kayla

Hey @SouthwestAir if you assign everyone a boarding number to stand in line why can’t you just assign seats? The check in process 24 hrs in advance is also a hassle. I dread flying SW and avoid it as much as possible. Unfortunately this time it’s unavoidable.

I appreciate Andy Gunn and Mark Proctor working hard in bitter cold to clear @tbmb Church Support Center parking lots. #SecondMileServants

@johnwschlitt LONGTIME Petra fan here. Have looked EVERYWHERE for Petra vinyl, specifically yours: “Back.” “War,” “Fire,” “Beyond” and maybe “Unseen,” although that may be CD era and unavailable on vinyl. Any stashes you know of that might be willing to part with one of each?

Wow, Sergio is like the Beetles song, he’s a real nowhere man sitting in a nowhere land when it comes to keeping pace with Max. #F1Austria #RBR

I am in favor of the the track limit penalty. The rule is no secret and many sports have boundaries. Disciplined drivers seem not to have a problem. #F1Austria

@Planet_F1 Ferrari searching for strategies.

Leclerc pits for softs, Verstappen 20 seconds up the road, let the hunt begin...we hope! #F1 🇮🇹 #ItalianGP

@F1 I simply don’t understand how I always have trouble streaming F1TV, but NEVER have trouble streaming @MotoGP. Ever. The greatest Motorsport technical minds ride bikes. No problems with ItalianGP qualifying this morning. Jerky streaming again this week for Monaco. Ridiculous.

@Jonathan_Howe Would be interesting to know how many of them were alcohol related IN RELATION TO PEDESTRIANS AND SCOOTER RIDERS. I have seen some down there on scooters who shouldn’t even be standing.

Thirty-nine people died in Nashville last year while walking, biking or using scooters, according to police data. This is unsurprising. That’s almost one per week. It’s simply not a safe pedestrian city.

Why are @CroftyF1 and @MBrundleF1 not making the call on @F1 TV online?

@williemclaurin @tnbaptist @SBCCP Thanks Willie. Appreciate the kind words and amplifying the column. Let’s hope it contributes positively to the ongoing conversation.

Thankful for my friend @travelwithchris and his commitment to being a part of keeping the conversation going. @tnbaptist @sbccp baptistandreflector.org/we-gotta-talk-…

Hey @GoDaddyHelp I just called your tech support and Jonathan was AWESOME! Dude saved my bacon. Thank you for a competent, friendly, patient, personable employee. Seriously, I went from pretty disillusioned with a “white screen of death” to up and running.

@wtf1official Why would Merc have pitted when Max did when they had the tire advantage at the start? Seems they have that away and put themselves on RBR’s strategy.

@TomClarksonF1 why would Mercedes have pitted for hards when Max did? Seems it gave away the starting tire advantage.

@CroftyF1 can you or @MBrundleF1 explain why @MercedesAMGF1 pitted the same time @redbullracing did with Max when they could go much longer. Seems that negated a tire strategy. Don’t understand it.

Losing Gunther. Jordan, and Price is a tremendous loss for SBC. Jim Gunther is a man of great integrity, wisdom, and grace. I am honored to call him friend. LAW FIRM WITHDRAWS AS EC GENERAL COUNSEL - Baptist & Reflector baptistandreflector.org/law-firm-withd…

@RollingStones @alincome Can’t wait to see the lads tonight! First time ever! Lifetime dream. #missingCharlie

If you’re heading to the Stones show in Nashville tonight you can tag @alincome and you might see your picture up on the big screen before the show!
