Endurance in the midst of trials declares that the gospel is true and that Jesus is worth it! - R Kent Hughes

@Markins Amazing. Congratulations, my friend!

Katie & I have delightful news. Warren & Alex are expecting (couple in the middle). We’re going to be GRANDPARENTS!!! 🍼🎉😍🙌🏽 God is so kind 🙏🏽

We need more neighborhood churches and more faithful pastors who are not looking for influence, but who are seeking significance in community over spectacular individuality. open.substack.com/pub/samluce/p/…

New review from @CTmagazine of How to Teach Kids Theology by @samluce and @hunter_disciple.

Thanks so much, @AJWTheology, for taking the time to read and thoughtfully respond to our book. It's truly humbling. I've loved your brilliant work for years. Maybe sometime we can have a spot of tea and talk about the Good Samaritan. 😉

Christian leadership must become a place where the immediate is outweighed by transcendence. The practical by presence. Relevance lies to us saying, “I am what I have.” Contemplative prayer reminds us that before we could ever love, we are loved. open.substack.com/pub/samluce/p/…

@edstetzer @northlandchurch 90's worship was peak. I miss it. Hot take: This is why worship music matters in church: the songs you sing are the hymnal people take with them into the joys and sorrows of life. Words/theology are more important than popularity.

What @RootAndrew talks about in this podcast on Childrens ministry / KidMin is exactly what @samluce @MikeHandler and I talk about in Forming Faith by @MoodyPublishers. Worth the listen! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/min…

This is cute. What would you name this cat?

Excessive innovation leads me to have a soul unsatisfied with what God says is “Good” and to chase what Collins says is “great.” samluce.substack.com/p/why-wonder-a…

@samluce and @hunter_disciple Williams join Practice Makes Parent to discuss theology and its importance in both religious education and practical life application. They also talk about the lack of theological training resources for children's pastors and techniques for teaching complex concepts like the Trinity to children. They highlight the importance of catechisms and emphasize teaching theology through lived experience and scripture. podcasts.focusonthefamily.com/show/practice-…
