I appreciate this and thank you for sharing. I’m still struggling to understand then how Peter started to sink into the water when he started to have doubts Matthew 14:30. Wouldn’t that be a show of nervousness? Or a lack of faith intensity? Maybe a better question is, “is nervousness same as doubt? When does it become doubt? I’m using nervousness because is the word the Pastor used in the video. And I’m comparing with doubt because that’s the word of God in Matthew 14:30.
I guess I understand that intensity does not affect salvation for example, but couldn’t it affect outcomes here on Earth i.e. material provisions or spiritual peace?

When I saw this video I immediately thought of the barna’s study regarding Gen Z turning to Jesus and said to myself “yes, they’re not in the protest because they are busy getting to know Jesus” ♥️🔥🫡

Gen Z is not participating with the astro-turfed, bought and paid for "Hands Off!" protests because they know it's a scam. They were told college was the only way to succeed. LIE They were told they'd never own a home and like it. LIE Young men were told they were toxic. LIE Young women were told to be childless boss babes to be happy. LIE They are part of a generation that has been demonized by older generations that sold them out, belittled them, and borrowed off their backs. Their parents and grandparents inherited a rich, powerful America only to hand them a weakened, debt-riddled country, divided over gender, race, class and every other abstraction invented in a university they graduated from with no debt but now costs $75,000 a year plus interest. They were told to downsize the American Dream or abandon it altogether. Wave after new wave of young people are rejecting the lies of the Boomer left. They're choosing a rebirth of freedom and opportunity. I see it with my own eyes every week on college campuses across America. The kids are waking up. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Going to venture a sure-to-be-unpopular stab at one implication of this data.
As @jamesrwoodtheo has pointed out (and the data below shows), lost conservatives are the ripest mission field right now.
Obviously, a Christlike pastor carries "great sorrow and unceasing anguish" for all people to be saved. Period.
But Jesus' mission strategy was to:
A) Find the "people of peace who welcome you" and invest there
B) But when a people refuse to listen, shake the dust off your feet and move on to the next people
When churches default to the early-2000's mentality of "lost people = secular progressives" and reverse-engineer their evangelism strategy from that dated assumption, they may accidentally end up spending their whole ministry ignoring the "people of peace" and spending all their efforts on the people about whom Jesus said you should “shake the dust off your feet”

NICHE CHURCH-NERD-MISSIOLOGY TWEET: Our missiology has not caught up to the (extremely uncomfortable) fact that data increasingly shows a society's /city's /person's faith are frequently downstream of their political views (see screenshots). DATA: 1) When a society (or person or city) becomes more conservative, it leads to faith and conversion at-scale. 2) When a society (or person or city) becomes more progressive, it leads to deconversion and lack of faith at-scale. This is because when conservatism (broadly defined) is installed in a culture, it installs a "plausibility structure" that leads to faith. But when progressivism is installed in a culture, it installs a plausibility structure that leads away from faith, because it disciples people to view many good things as evil and many evil things as good, resulting in Christianity and Christian morality being seen as repressive, outdated, harmful, evil. This is, in part, what's behind John Mark Comer's observation, "My pastoral experience is that progressive Christianity – not for all people, but for most – is a stopover on the way to post-Christianity.” Very frankly, I don't know what to do with this (or how/whether it affects a church's missiology), but as a leader I know what not to do: pretend it isn't true. Reality is undefeated.

Whoever decided car engines should shut down any time you stop at a red light needs to be put on one of those deportation flights to El Salvador.

@krassenstein All it takes are a few seconds to understand when some of these “protests” go against the law and beyond free speech:

BREAKING: President Trump has canceled $400 million in federal funding to Columbia University over the protests they allowed.
As a Jewish person who supports Israel, I still see this as a dangerous precedent—penalizing free speech simply because the government disagrees with it.
Wasn’t this administration supposed to be “pro-free speech”?

@libsoftiktok Since a lot of people don’t know how to search for a definition of illegal protest here it is:

Trump: Federal funding will be cut for schools allowing illegal protests. Agitators face deportation or prison. U.S. students risk expulsion or arrest. No masks allowed.
