San Jose you have a problem.

@blpjr77 You don’t know the way to San Jose?

@warne Go west till I hit water?

They have to. Of all the primary source material out there, The Hiding Place is some of the most damning and the hardest to get around. They can dismiss Jewish sources because Jewish, Bonhoeffer because theological disagreement, Churchill because warmonger, etc. But middle aged Christian ladies who did nothing but hide Jews and experienced the camps? They have to call it evil or someone might read it and see their entire narrative crumble.

Michael Spangler is not a good man.

@PastorJChester @natejbrooks @Scottardavanis Well, he taught us to flap our arms behind our backs like chickens until we took flight after 200 sermons. Jk, he didn’t teach us that.

@warne @natejbrooks I had @Scottardavanis for expository preaching 1 at TMS. PNP was tought with the caveat that it was a fallback until you "find your voice" after about 200 sermons. For me, it can seem kind of forced outside of NT epistles.

Un secreto, pastor: mientras tú te aburres con el típico bosquejo de tres puntos con sus puntos secundarios, con sus aliteraciones y de breve composición con vocabulario sencillo, tú eres el único. Apenas han tomado su café mañanero. Predica con claridad misericordiosa.

@PastorJChester PNP is one of the most important tools TMC put in my preaching tool belt. My first preaching class ever was with Scott Ardavanis. @natejbrooks can attest that I preaches the entire sermon holding my hands behind my back and flapping my elbows like a chicken. True story.

@warne I very rarely force alliteration or a plural noun proposition, but really helpful to me waa 4 years as a special needs intern. When you preach you need to make sure the cookies are on the bottom shelf.

@chris_calvi @DPCassidyTKC A bold game lol

@warne @DPCassidyTKC Many years ago, I watched a family, multiple weeks in a row, show up as visitors just to get the coffee, then sneak back to the car and leave.

@SEdburg @warne Odds are still in favor of survival of the hipster hats

New incentive for submitting overtures to GA. We get an ice cream social, and @warne will eat his fedora on the floor of GA.

@PJ_Cahill It’s my Friday. Agreed.

Thursday evening may be my favorite of the non-Sunday evenings.

@DPCassidyTKC Our coffee is good, it’s kind of an inside joke. A recent visitor took a sip while we were talking, held the cup back and looked at it and said “That’s *good* church coffee.”

@warne Absolutely. And make sure the church coffee is good coffee.

@blpjr77 @SEdburg East. EAST!

@warne @SEdburg Come on Dan. This might be the only way to get me to Milwaukee. Which is not west of the Rockies.

It is unfortunate that we are still only at 63 overtures for the PCAGA. Presbyteries are really dropping the ball. We need at least 75 overtures before Easter. Help us reach that goal.

@blpjr77 @SEdburg Non-refundable and non-transferable. Offer not valid west of the Rockies.

@warne @SEdburg Does this stand into 2027?

“Let us immerse ourselves constantly in the sacred Scriptures, let us work at reading them, and by the gift of Christ’s Spirit the things that are necessary for salvation will be for us clear, direct, and completely open.” —Peter Martyr

Tried to catch some trout today and got skunked. But I parked by a cool piece of history.

I don’t think people realize how many more words the NASB95 uses than the ESV. ESV contains ~757,000 words NASB95 contains ~807,000 words A good example of the difference in word count is the rendering of Romans 8:28: “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28 ESV (24 words) “And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” Romans 8:28 NASB95 (27 words) This difference stems from the slight difference in translation philosophy between the two. The ESV asks: “what did the original author mean, and what’s the most natural, readable English way to say that?” While still staying very close to the text, just with a little more freedom to let English be English. The NASB ’95 asks: “what did the original Greek and Hebrew say, word for word?” and then tries to mirror that as literally as possible in English, even if the result sounds wooden at times. I am thankful that we have both (and other) good English translations. Which one do you prefer?
