Low fertility rates is a growing crisis around the world (especially in so-called “Christian” nations). Islam is growing around the world through fertility rates. The Bible has a lot to say about the blessing of children.

Episode 3 features Jon Akin’s story of faith, ministry, & family. The conversation asks whether children are a burden or a blessing and reflects on parenting, sacrifice, and the lasting joy of investing in the next generation. Tune in and join the huddle: vist.ly/4u2h7

What I think I treasure most about @DrTomSchreiner is the union of a world class New Testament scholar and preacher who can simplify the text in a beautiful and profound way that a child could understand it. A beautiful sermon today at @SBTS from Mark 5: 1-20.

“There’s a difference in seeking answers from God, and surrendering my heart to God.” In chapel today, Dr. Eric C. Smith, Associate Professor of Church History, preached from 1 Samuel 28 and walked us through the tragic final chapter of Saul’s life. Saul wanted guidance without repentance, answers without surrender. He silenced God’s voice for years, only to find himself desperate and alone in the dark. The haunting warning is clear, we cannot substitute public service of God for private surrender to God.

Fathers, don’t waste your life chasing a platform, influence, and fame… •Pursue Jesus •Cherish time w/ your wife and kids •Be committed to your local church •Work hard as unto the Lord. It is in those pursuits that you will find true joy, meaning, and fulfillment.

In December 2025, former US Senator @BenSasse announced that he had been diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. That's the primary topic for this @UncKnowledge conversation about mortality, faith, and what truly matters when time is short. Talking to host @P_M_Robinson, Sasse reflects on "redeeming the time"—holding ambition lightly, loving family more deliberately, and resisting the urge to make politics or professional success the center of life. The discussion also covers Sasse's thoughts on the failures of Congress; the dangers of a fragmented, attention-starved republic; the crisis of higher education; and the moral challenges of technological abundance. He speaks candidly and movingly about regret, forgiveness, prayer, and suffering—arguing that while death is a real enemy, it does not get the final word. Watch the full conversation on X:

It’s Great Commission Week, and stories like this remind us why theological training matters for the work of the church. Joshua Lemaiyan pastors in Nairobi while studying through Southern’s online programs. Through that training, he is growing in his own ministry and helping make theological education more accessible to pastors across Africa. This is the work of multiplication, pastors trained to train others, for the good of the church and the spread of the gospel among the nations.
