What are you doing to develop leaders? How will consistently asking yourself, “What am I doing to develop leaders?” change your leadership? How will consistently asking that question of those you lead, change their leadership? HatTip to ~Bob Tiede @ tinyurl.com/y3wmunh8

And concludes: "But when a mob is manipulated by crafty leaders, in an atmosphere of patriotic fervor, it loses itself and starts to think with its feelings instead of its brains. Their condemning vote said nothing about the Son of God, but it said a great deal about them."

Wiersbe continues, "No doubt many of the Jews admired Barabbas for his cunning and courage, and they rejoiced that he was fighting Rome. Had they honestly compared and contrasted the two “candidates,” the people would have had to vote for Jesus Christ."

In Warren Wiersbe's commentary (Be Transformed) on John 18 where the crowd was offered Jesus or Barabbas, he observes, "There is no explaining how a mob chooses its heroes." How will you choose your heros? Faith, facts or feelings?

Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. (Mt 6:9–10, ESV)

Want to give to help those impacted by Hurricane Ian? IMO, this is the best way! sendrelief.org/projects/hurri… via @sendrelief

For the first time in over 15 years, I don't have a boat in the water while a hurricane approaches. While I may miss the boat and FL from time to time, I'm grateful to be where I am without a lot of "stuff" to worry about. #Praying4Florida

So, let's say you live overseas... and you're from the south... and you see the logo on the left... and, well, let's just say it's not exactly what you might imagine.

I tried to arrange water delivery this week. Realizing the guy didn't understand me, I started to repeat myself. Two sentences in, I realized he hadn't miraculously learned English. I stopped and said "we'll try again tomorrow." To my credit, I didn't say it louder.

@philipnation Compelled by love, I will empty myself of self, and live for the benefit of others….

What is a lesson about leadership that you wish that you had learned earlier in life?

@RevElkins I've been here all along..... welcome back.

How long with other social media platforms be down? Anyone who is checking Twitter today for the first time in weeks (or months), just wanted to say hello!

Thinking about what it mean to be mature. How about: To know and do what must be done on a moment-by-moment basis?

Saw a mom and 2 boys at breakfast. Mom was watching phone screen. Boys were drinking pancake syrup with a straw.

Texting and driving? Shouldn't there be a law or something? #NoJudgement
