There is no one I would rather sit next to in a crowded airport terminal, watching the “delayed by” counter growing.
There is no one else I would rather look over my lyrics (and crinkle your nose slightly when it doesn’t sit right) with.
There is no one else’s shoulder I would
Galatians 5:6
We get so lost in nonsense that just doesn’t matter.
Grateful for verses of scripture that remind us that all the arguments and words about words simply don’t count.
@youngbluewooll1@Christianitymag Hi! Yeah I think probably do associate being considerate about people’s feelings with being loving towards them. And being honest with them. It’s not either/or …it’s both/and. Right?
@Christianitymag@chrisrend There is a clear conflation of “love” with “not making me feel bad”. If speaking the truth in love means protecting the therapeutic feelings of the hearer then we run in to trouble with the book of Galatians, for starters.
@Christianitymag@rendcollective@chrisrend It would be sad if the @skilletmusic guys (or singer) are getting all USA 'Bible belt' happy just for sale/fans/attention/likes at risk of losing other fans or connection with the modern world around them.
@British_Airways Hi. I’m travelling with my son from US to the the UK and he is unable to wear a mask due to special needs. What is your process for applying for mask exemption? (Customer service line literally won’t let calls through right now, as has been the case for 2 days)
@chrisrend@JohnPiper This Marvel article of his pales in comparison to this just-published one. He honestly should be fired. He clearly just cherry-picks and misuses Scripture verses to support his blatant misogyny and grandiose view of himself desiringgod.org/articles/the-f…
Greg Morse doubts that Captain Marvel signals liberation for women since real women soldiers don’t have any photon blasts and can’t fly. And men who wish they could are cowards. desiringgod.org/articles/behol…
The Llewellyn's ( @chrisrend & @gabllewellyn ) are 2 of my favourites in this world. It's a joy to support them & issue 2 just landed & it was thought provoking! I'm now I'm off to read one of their recomendadtions! Subscribe! It's worth it! 😉
@gpmitchell So easy to say something as popular as this in evangelical culture. But the real ministry is in somehow repairing the divide between LGBTQ and the church, not fortifying and doubling down on it.
@gpmitchell Yeah I must admit I came away from that thinking it was just an easy way to get a few thousand likes by appealing to people’s prejudices and proof texting. Can’t see how this meaningfully extends the gospel. Just shores up the fortress like walls the church is building.
The Bible says it. I believe it. That settles it.
Whether we hold a trad sexual ethic or not, can we agree this a horrible way to speak about these things?
