When the ground gives way beneath your feet and you feel like you’re free falling into an inescapable abyss, Jesus is there. You cannot go where he cannot reach. Cry out. He will catch you.

Still the BEST sports commentary of all-time. 😂

@CarolinaLumetta @JoSHSHoomaker Congratulations!

Met over Zoom in a two-week journalism program at the start of covid, met in person a year after that (just friends), reconnected a year later while covering DC protests, dated long distance for a year after that, getting married in September.

This is a beautiful account of what faith in the Presby church & Reformed Tradition can look like: trusting & receiving as a gift each member rather than suspicious watchmen. It’s what the PCA can be & is by grace, at its best. Hope-Full Presbyterianism a4mr.org/hope-full-pres…

Honoured to be included among this year’s Zenger Prize Winners for The Surprising Rebirth Of Belief In God podcast

Very proud to be selected as one of these 10 winners of this year's Zenger Prize, honoring street-level independent reporting, for a story published in @theatlantic (link in thread). #realindependentjournalism #dreamland #theleastofus

This is the third year our little foundation has given prizes to fantastic journalists, Christian and not, who write deeply reported stories about things that matter.

I am deeply honored to have been chosen for a Zenger House prize in reporting for my work in the Charismatic Revival Fury audio-documentary series. They are particularly highlighting Episode 3, which centers on Sean Feucht, Lance Wallnau, & the Seven Mountains. 1/

@dustinwmesser @DPCassidyTKC @MarvinOlasky Thank you, Dustin. Marvin's not on X, but he also thanks you.

Finished @MarvinOlasky’s memoir, Pivot Points. A beautiful narrative, beautifully written. He and @susanolasky increasingly become inspirations to me. (Heb 13:7)

One of my post-retirement projects.

One of Marvin’s post-resignation projects.

Many book recs in the comments.

This is a great typology for culture from @tedgioia: honest-broker.com/p/the-state-of… C.S. Lewis put it well in his Screwtape Letters: "You no longer need a good book, which he really likes, to keep him from his prayers or his work or his sleep...

Happy 50th anniversary to one of our long-time family favorites! ** For my family, reading Scarry together was itself like a car trip — the rare sort where no one gets cranky and the world, as seen from the back seat, is fresh and startling. Are those mice really driving a car made of cheese? Of course they are! And the construction worker, a fox, is operating a massive tractor-thing that squashes stuff down and is called — what else? — a squasher-downer. Somehow, at the end of their day, the Pig family, now sunburned and heading home from the beach, find themselves on a mountainous road in what seems to be the Alps, and uh-oh, watermelons spilling from a watermelon truck tumble down the steep road, causing a pileup, in which, fortunately, no one is seriously hurt. There’s much to make out in the mess. ** nytimes.com/2024/01/05/boo…
