@DavidJHarrisJr I remember taking my once 6th grade daughter to a bb tournament and she talked about was how aggressive the boys games were vs the girls games. She saw the difference 6th grade, when even most boys were pre-pruberty.

Despite stablecoin yield being excluded from the Clarity Act, XRP holders still have strong alternatives for generative yield.☝️
For example, Franklin Templetons BENJI issued on the XRPL generates solid yield from US Treasuries. Holders can post BENJI as collateral into BounceBit Prime Vault where it earns about 5 percent fund yield plus 5 to 40 percent from basis trades delivering total yields of 10 to 45 percent APY.🔑
This gives XRP holders an easy on chain way to earn generative yield in a regulated setup.✅

🚨CRYPTO AND BANKS FINALLY REACH DEAL IN NEW CLARITY ACT DRAFT The latest draft of the CLARITY Act shows both sides backing a compromise on stablecoin yield rules. The deal allows rewards tied to stablecoin activity, and bans earning yield just for holding balances. Nonetheless, how “activity-based” rewards will actually work remains unclear, leaving room for future regulatory battles.

@JoshuaLisec Simple, he’s an incel that hates ALL women, especially the virgins who would not marry him.
English
“She’s more pure than most virgins”
It’s the extreme depth of cope on display that betrays either (a) a level of self-delusion we rarely see in public or (b) bitter regret over the humiliation of his sexual experience imbalance, which still looks like (a)
Zara@ZaraSpake
@JoshuaLisec I think it's this line that's making you obsessed with it. Imagine he meant it in the context of the rest of the paragraph to emphasize her current devotion to purity and commitment to a holy path, and he simply isn't a careful enough or experienced writer.

@ChadSteingraber They have no fear. No one puts the fear into the demons.

@RealJRHughes Do you consider yourself “purer than most virgins” ?
Shame on him for assuming the hearts of actual virgins. That is what most people have a problem with. He is acting holier than thou.

I was formerly promiscuous. My wife was a virgin.
I was then radically born-again. Then I fell into more sexual sin. Then I returned as a prodigal. Reading, studying, learning, praying. Grief and repentance over my wayward ways.
We got to know each other for about a year...
English
Most are not attacking his wife. Most are attacking the absurdity of him not protecting her and also his judging of other women and elevating her and causing strife. “She more pure than most virgins.” What? Who is he to say something like that? He doesn’t know their hearts and he needs to have better discernment.

Trevor Sheatz’s post last night stirred up a surprising amount of frustration from Christians. It’s wild how quickly people get uncomfortable when someone with a past ends up in a healthy, loving marriage. The reaction honestly felt less like righteous concern and more like the older brother in the prodigal son — upset that grace didn’t land where they thought it should.
But here’s the thing:
Faithfulness should absolutely be celebrated. But the prize for the faithful isn’t public praise or a guaranteed “good life.” The real reward is the intimacy you build with the Father — the closeness, the history, the trust that forms over years of walking with Him.
And the truth is this:
Someone with a messy past might end up in a beautiful marriage.
Someone who honored God with their sexuality their whole life might never get married at all.
Does that make the first person better?
Does that mean God loves them more?
Or are we just frustrated that someone else received something we didn’t?
That’s older‑brother energy.
He wasn’t mad because his brother came home.
He was mad because grace didn’t feel fair.
But listen to what the Father says to him — and to us:
Why are you so focused on what they received? You’ve been with Me the whole time. “Everything I have is yours.” Luke 15:31
That’s the part we forget.
Faithfulness isn’t a transaction.
It’s not leverage.
It’s not a spiritual investment account where obedience guarantees a specific return.
Faithfulness is relationship.
Faithfulness is proximity.
Faithfulness is the quiet, steady reward of knowing God deeply — not using Him to get something else.
So if someone with a past finds a loving marriage, celebrate the grace of God in their story.
And if someone faithful never gets the thing they hoped for, celebrate the grace of God in their story too — because their reward has been the Father Himself all along.
The prize isn’t the outcome.
The prize is Him.

My wife was formerly promiscuous. I was a virgin. She was then radically born-again. Committed to church, evangelized constantly, Puritan books in her bedroom, prayer journals, grief over past sexual sin, etc. We got to know each other well for over a year, dated for four months, engaged for two and a half, and didn't sin sexually with one another. Our first kiss with each other was at the altar on our wedding day (reaction pic attached!). We've been married for over five years now, and she's been the most wonderful and godly wife, mother to our three children, and homemaker you could imagine. She's more pure than most virgins, as biblical purity has less to with past sins (though they certainly matter) and more to do with one's current posture of the heart and daily decisions to honor the Lord (Matt. 5:8). We're far too quick to forget the story of the woman labeled as a known "sinner" (likely a prostitute) in Luke 7:36-50 who was washing Jesus' feet with her tears while kissing them too. The Pharisees were shocked that Jesus let a public sinner do this. Jesus responded with a parable about debts being forgiven and ended with this powerful conclusion: "Her many sins have been forgiven; that’s why she loved much. But the one who is forgiven little, loves little" (Luke 7:47). Everyone seems to highlight the benefits of virginity, and it certainly is a blessing. But we forget to highlight the benefits of being forgiven much as well. My wife knows the depths of Jesus' forgiveness more than most people, enabling her to more easily live out a life of passionate love for her Savior. A woman or man's past sexual sin matters. But what matters far more when it comes to deciding who to marry is if the person is truly born again, if their repentance is real, if they truly have a heart for Christ, if they truly follow Jesus and obey his commands. "God has chosen what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen what is weak in the world to shame the strong. God has chosen what is insignificant and despised in the world — what is viewed as nothing — to bring to nothing what is viewed as something, so that no one may boast in his presence. It is from him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became wisdom from God for us — our righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, — in order that, as it is written: 'Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.'" (1 Cor. 1:27-31) "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, and see, the new has come!" (2 Cor. 5:17)

Pride is the shortest path to a heavy fall.
Humble yourself before God and he will lift you up in due time.

@TrevorSheatz “She’s more pure than most virgins.” Who are you to judge other women? You know nothing about their hearts. Shame on you. You are ridiculous. Sit down.

"Not all secret things need to be made public."
"You're throwing your wife under the bus."
"You still have time to delete this!"
Firstly, this story has been public for years when my wife was the first one who decided to discuss this publicly. She delights in sharing her testimony with others.
Secondly, I agree that not all secret things need to be made public. There is honor and wisdom in concealing certain matters (Prov. 11:13; 17:9). This is precisely why I chose not to go into details surrounding past sin and kept it brief. I quite literally just shared five words about her life before Christ in this post.
Third, in the Scriptures, we see countless personal sins revealed. God didn't have to have David's adultery exposed; he didn't have to have Peter's betrayal revealed; he didn't have to have Samson's lust written down permanently. He could've just chosen not to include these things in the Bible at all. Why would God do this when secret things should remain hidden, and when this only gives unbelievers ammo to fire at these godly individuals?
Because, lastly, we're all sinners who fall short of God's commands and need hope, and these transparent revealings of shortcomings bring that hope and show that "there is none good but God" (Mark 10:18).
Christianity isn't for those who are perfect. It's for the broken, the lost, the sinful. No one is too far from God's grace that they can't be saved, and hearing these real stories brings the hope of the gospel to people who think, like I used to, that they've sinned too much to possibly go to Heaven.
But the marvel of the gospel is that you don't have to live a perfect life; Jesus already did (Heb. 4:15). You don't have to pay the penalty for your sins by suffering forever in Hell; Jesus already bore God's wrath on the cross in the place of all those who would trust in him (2 Cor. 5:21). He rose from the grace and defeated death so that anyone who repents and believes upon him will have their sinful past forgiven (Acts 20:21), be given the Holy Spirit and a new nature, and be saved from Hell and granted eternity in Heaven with God (John 3:16).
And I am so grateful this practical story can reach the far corners of the internet where even though many may mock, it will resonate with some who are convicted of their secret sins, which God will one day reveal anyways (Luke 8:17). I pray it leads some to fall flat on their face to Jesus today in repentance and faith. He is such a loving, forgiving, gracious King and Savior. He's the only way to Heaven. Run to him today, and you can experience the same forgiveness, love, and transformation that my wife, myself, and all born-again Christians have undergone. 🙏🏻

If someone argues that a former promiscuous woman is "damaged goods" and questions whether a Christian young man should marry her, remember Rahab. She was a Canaanite prostitute but became a mother in the lineage of Jesus. God redeemed her, cleansed her, and Salmon married her.
English
@AshleySheatz Sweetheart, most are calling out your husband because of claim that “She’s more pure than most virgins.” He is judging other women’s hearts and needs to sit down. Glad you all are doing great, but he needs to have better discernment and he also is supposed to protect you.
English
Also, I will never stop proclaiming what God has done in my life.
God took the worst (me) and made me clean. He blessed my life when I didn’t deserve it and changed me and continues to change me. I have an amazing marriage. Three beautiful children. A very wholesome life.
♥️
English
@EmbracingTara He even tries to throw actual virgins under the bus, “She’s more pure than most virgins.” He’s judging the hearts of other women. Shame on him.
English
Nobody has a problem with people sharing their own testimonies.
I have a past that would put hair back on your head 😂 Not ashamed. We are all equal at the foot of the cross.
However, if you can't see the difference between a woman sharing her own testimony in her own words and agency, and a husband parading his wife's sexual past publicly for clout and praise (for his benevolence in marrying a sinful woman or something?) knowing it will provoke judgment or slander - which is a husband's job to shield her from - check your discernment.
A husband is supposed to protect and preserve his wife's dignity against slander and attacks, not expose her to potential ridicule or judgment for clicks and his own praise.
Her testimony belongs to her.
David Fischer@DavidFischer
If any self-proclaimed Christian has a problem with any of this story, I would urge you to rethink your spiritual position, repent, and get in line with Biblical teachings. Very inspiring by my Brother and Sister in Christ.
English
@ryancduff Perhaps because he’s judgemental as heck “She’s more pure than most virgins.” Who is he to judge the hearts of other women?
English
The reaction to this post is a prime example of why the way is narrow and few find it.
From “you shouldn’t share this” to “Christianity has a marketing issue”… the gross misunderstanding of grace and newness of life is lost on most.
Christianity is too radical for the masses. It’s why they sought to crucify Jesus and why they’ll eliminate the two witnesses on revelation. 🤷🏻♂️

@stormrobinson He had the nerve to say “She’s more pure than most virgins.” Who is he to judge the hearts of other women? Shame on him.
English
Let me break down what’s going on here. He’s a deeply repressed homosexual (note the open-mouth smile) and entered the marriage with zero heterosexual experience because the idea of sex with men terrified him (or was forbidden by religion, family, culture). Sex with his wife is therefore either mechanically dutiful or outright aversive. When she’s enthusiastic or skilled, it highlights the mismatch: she knows what good sex feels like; he doesn’t and never will in this arrangement. That gap feels like a personal failure, so he holds her (very normal) premarital sex life over her head as a moral failure. Slut-shaming her restores the hierarchy he needs to feel like the “good” one. She’s the dirty one, he’s the pure, long-suffering husband who’s “sacrificing” for the marriage. It also conveniently excuses why he’s often disinterested or performs poorly in bed. It’s her fault. “She’s too used up” instead of “I’m gay.”
