This week I purchased shares in Ondas $ONDS
This position was built after it became apparent that the future will be dominated by autonomous systems.
From land to sea to air, the proliferation of drones and other autonomous systems is going to fundamentally change the way we operate as a society.
The threats are changing, which means the defenses will have to change. I am encouraged by the Ondas team’s recent track record of execution.
They have a lot of cash and have built a business to acquire innovative technologies, secure large government & commercial contracts, and scale the business rapidly.
I expect the company to face plenty of obstacles in the future. The macro trend of autonomy and drones should be a great tailwind, coupled with a management team purpose-built for M&A and business development.
I look forward to meeting many other Ondas shareholders in the coming weeks.

Okay... I'm going to sound like real-life @ChrchCurmudgeon here, but here goes... If you are a church musician, and you honestly want to "lead people in worship" through music, you may want to do the following: 1) Pick a singable key for the median person who doesn't sing all the time. Don't pick a key to highlight your voice. 2) Lower the volume so people can hear the voices of those around them, and themselves. 3) Let people sing the melodies that are familiar to them. While you may want to jazz up or do the latest CCM twist of "Hark the Herald" or "Silent Night"--people can't follow you. They just want to sing the song. Picking keys to highlight your voice; playing at concert volume; doing creative rearrangements to make the familiar suddenly unfamiliar... all discourage us from singing. There's NOTHING wrong with highlighting your voice, or playing at concert volume, or doing creative rearrangements of songs... if you are a performer. Book a gig somewhere! Play out! Be great! Build a following! But please, when we all get together and sing, don't put up barriers to stop us.

Over the years, I’ve compiled more than 20 Bible reading plans designed to help you read and meditate on Scripture throughout the New Year.
Take a look and tell me which one you will be using.
If you have a favorite plan I missed, I would love to add it to the list.

Friends, if you invite your pastor to lunch or coffee, please tell him what you want to talk about... and be honest.
"Pastor, can we get lunch? I'd like to talk about..."
This helps him assess the urgency, and it may reduce unnecessary anxiety between now and the meeting.

@markchironna Man. So much truth here and wisdom to walk in. Very helpful. Thank you, brother.

After many decades of being a pastor, there are some things I've seen up close, and learned the hard way. One of them is this.
Conflict often becomes a story before it becomes a conversation. Once a narrative starts circulating, the person who is not in the room stops being a person. They become a character in someone else’s version of events. And characters get judged without the dignity of dialogue.
That is how we lose each other. Not through one big blow up, but through a slow drift into retelling, reenacting, and recruiting. The longer the story travels, the harder it gets to sit down, look someone in the eye, and say what is actually true.

Young men and women: YOU DON'T HAVE TO MARRY YOUR BEST FRIEND.
Don't put that pressure on yourself.
Instead, marry a godly person with whom you can grow, laugh, cry, forgive (a lot), suffer, serve a church, raise kids, and put Christ's sacrificial self-denying love on display.

It's not "marry your best friend, the one true soulmate who alone fits you perfectly, has zero flaws, and only makes you smile." It's "make the one you marry your best friend, and never stop pursuing their good, their joy, their growth in God, and their heart."
