@concoschulz The very stones cry out! I always think about that verse during Christmas when stone hearts still proclaim the birth of the Savior through the songs they sing and hear.

A police officer was shot watching a suspect in the hospital a couple weeks ago. Today is his funeral and local channels are broadcasting the service. Even in the VA waiting area, you can hear the Greek Orthodox chanting (in English) Christ is arisen.

@PhilEdwardsInc @CharlieBerens you seen this? Thoughts?

So which states are Midwestern? And which one is the MOST Midwestern? youtube.com/watch?v=BsMFul…

@INHouseGOP This still you? "...access to ABA will only continue to be top-of-mind for our state. Ensuring access to this interventive therapy can mean the difference between a child on the spectrum leading an independent life in adulthood or not." indianahouserepublicans.com/news/press-rel…

I'd be curious to see numbers on this. What are the congregations, districts, or regions that are "doing their part?" What are they actively doing?

I may not know what I'm talking about concerning proper pastoral formation... ...but I had a conversation once with a friend whose church had been unsuccessful in calling a pastor. My question for him was, "how many pastors has your congregation produced lately?"

@sethhinz I think I miss that one the most...

@sethhinz That button looks "squishy" rather than "clicky"

2003 called. I'm here for the call.

@sethhinz I guess technically my son has homework each night to read for 20 minutes and practice and discuss his memory work. I suppose I support those...

@jonathanmbolt I believe when teachers regularly require students to use "at-home" time to get ready for the next class, it's teaching terrible lifelong lessons.

Homework teaches kids it's normal to work after hours. It's not healthy. Change my mind.

@sethhinz Honestly, I just expect them to be prepared for the next class. And there's a million justifiable reasons why work may not get done at home and that's ok too.

@jonathanmbolt Great. So it's not a regular expectation. I'm talking about a regular expectation of daily or even more than one day a week of homework. A large capstone project falls outside of that in my mind.

@sethhinz Every year my students create a capstone project which results is most of the work being done outside of school (hosting a fishing tournament, creating antimicrobial kneepads, raising money for books for a children's hospital...)

@jonathanmbolt Make your case. I have a simpletons definition. Any work for school that has to be done at home, outside of school hours.

@sethhinz I don't prefer my students working at home because I'm not there to help or clarify, but I can't say that kids shouldn't do any work at home. There's too many reasons that might not be the case.

@sethhinz Was ample time given in class for the work? How is understanding being assessed? Are there long term benchmarks that need to be met? Is this part of a larger "portfolio" for students to demonstrate learning?

@sethhinz Their last 3 CFO appearances have been because of others decisions: 2020: B1G changes rules to put them in Championship (admittedly, arguable impact) 2022: Final CFP ranking moves them up to 4 2024: CFP expands to include their rank in playoff

Fellow Michigan 〽️ fans Honest question. How do you really feel about OSU being in the final game of the season?

"And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way."

@neumanjb @jessicalin6485 @Johnubacon If you haven't already, read "let them lead"

Just learned that @jessicalin6485 gets to hear @Johnubacon speak on Monday. Told her how jealous I was and when I said, "He's the lawnmowers guy!" she knew exactly who he was.

@sethhinz Is that even a chord?

@jonathanmbolt Brother Martin was recording an early "Shout to the Lord"

This photo has emerged from the 1500s and it causing a stir in Lutheran circles. Some are saying, "Grok is an AI." Others are unsure.
