@dixontroy Watch you got for your @CSBible Bruhs?

Me to my NIV friends: Sup? Me to my KJV only friends: Suppeth?

We often ask why God feels silent, why direction feels unclear, and we feel stuck. But what if the silence is not distance, it is division? What if God has already spoken, and we are just holding onto something He asked us to release? Clarity is not always given before obedience.

@tpatrickmartin What? Ai wicked smart.

I actually teared up.

A man whose identity was unknown for nearly four decades now has his name back. This is an update to a story we shared with you in July 2024. In January 1990, a couple hiking near Little Talbot Island discovered the skeletal remains of a man near the Duval and Nassau County line. No ID was found. Despite investigative efforts, the case went cold and stayed that way for 36 years. All the detectives had was a forensic sketch of what he may have looked like. In 2024, our agency and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement submitted forensic evidence to Othram Labs in Texas. Scientists were able to build a DNA profile and through genetic genealogy testing, detectives located potential relatives. One of whom helped identify the man as her first cousin, Joseph Paul Connors, known as “Buddy.” Our Cold Case Unit detectives recently met with Mr. Connors’ cousins and shared information. Mr. Connors was born in May 1937, served in the United States Navy, and worked for the United States Postal Service. No foul play is suspected in his death. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement facilitated the case being researched by Othram Labs, through grant funds from the Federal Bureau of Justice Assistance’s Missing and Unidentified Human Remains Program.

Have started to get more questions about why I do stuff like this. Quick response... 1) Not every pastor should, and not saying I'm doing it perfectly. Guarantee I'm not. 2) I've come think of discipleship in terms of "Air War" and "Ground War." - Air War = applying the Word to PEOPLE and FAMILIES "down there" - Ground War = applying the Word to culture "up there" Just like in a military conflict, if you have no Air War it doesn't matter how many battles you win on the ground, the Enemy just flies in, bombs your wins, and un-does everything you did. I feel like that happens with Christians: If we don't combat the lies they are inundated with in culture, Enemy "air war superiority" is undoing for the next 6 days (via social media, journalism, entertainment media, higher ed, etc) what we did on 1 day. 3) Many of the "false teachers" of this era are not in pulpits. They are on podcasts, YouTube pages, Twitch streams, etc doing reverse-discipleship and frequently twisting the Scriptures to do so. In 1960 a pastor could generally keep his sheep from wolves by controlling who he allowed in his pulpit. In 2026, people are carrying entire packs of "wolves" in their pockets... so as a shepherd I'm trying to go there too. 4) I refuse to let my pulpit get hijacked by the issue of the week. On weekends I'm preaching verse by verse through books. Stuff like this gives me the ability to combat bad teaching my people are hearing without letting my pulpit get hijacked. (Not saying everything Tucker said in this clip I reacted to = bad teaching, listen to ep) 5) If pastors refuse to help their people think Biblically through the issues of the day, someone else will help them think UNbiblically about them. If godly people don't, godless people will. 6) It is counterintuitively an avenue for evangelism. One takeaway I had from watching the effect of Charlie Kirk's life was that what is often called "the culture war" can be a PLATFORM for the gospel, rather than a distraction from it. 7) Last year I read a book that touched on church leadership and pastoral ministry during the era of the American founding. Pastors leveraged Sundays to preach through books of the Bible, but many leveraged the mid-week gathering to teach their people about "Christian statesmanship" (applying Biblical principles to society, local politics, culture, etc.) We accidentally backed into doing that with Live Free. *All that to say, I GUARANTEE I'm doing it imperfectly and this is not going to be every pastor's "thing." I've always been drawn to "Christ and culture" thinking. But I'm doing my imperfect best for the above reasons.

As we observe the one-year anniversary of the April 17, 2025, tragedy on the Florida State University campus, we remember those who were lost, those who were injured, and the families whose lives were forever changed. I invite you to join the FSU family in a moment of silence — wherever you may be — at noon on Friday. Thank you for the kindness you continue to show each other as we remember and honor this day. news.fsu.edu/news/universit…

There is a massive bank vault deep inside the HQ of Coca-Cola with 24/7, 365 security guards protecting a single sheet of paper: the secret formula for Coke. There is an entertaining movie plot somewhere in this.

There is something at the center of our faith that we cannot afford to lose. The moment we forget it, everything starts to unravel. We begin to drift, to question, to complain, and eventually to walk away, even while God remains steady and present with us.

Pastors, there’s always next Sunday!

My latest book is now available on Amazon. This is a collection of the sermon summaries from the letters of John (1st, 2nd, and 3rd John) that I preached in 2025. The book is available in paperback, Kindle ebook, and audio. a.co/d/062xMLR4

Really wanted to draw some attention to myself, so I ordered fajitas at dinner.

@drewdyck Feel you! I had a space birthday party planned. Our whole school watched it explode. Birthday party did not go as expected. I still love space.

Wrote a little about my Gen X trauma in this week's newsletter.

@MLB @Topps My son started last year and he loves collecting. It has been fun to do this hobby with him. It’s also increased his love for the game. His favorite is the Topps baseball facts on back of cards.

Collecting baseball cards has always been one of the best hobbies to get kids into baseball! Repost and comment for your chance to win this 2026 @Topps Series 1 box to open with your kids ❤️
