On this date in 1748, a slave-trader was converted on the Atlantic Ocean. Near the end of his life, John Newton said: “Although my memory is fading, I remember two things very clearly: I am a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior.” Thank God for amazing grace.

The Lord didn’t check who inside the house was worthy. He checked for blood on the doorposts. None of us is worthy. Only the blood of Jesus can cover us.

“The glory of the gospel is this: the one from whom we need to be saved is the one who has saved us.” - R. C. Sproul Amazing grace, indeed!

We are so blessed.

Mental health improves when people live in reality. (See every effective therapy.) A biblical worldview and traditional conservatism delivers that. It see the world for what it actually is including the human potential for both villainy and glory. It provides an objective structure- limits, risks, responsibilities, meaning, Creator/created distinctions. It tells you the truth about who you are. Progressivism often begins by denying those things. And once you reject reality, you have to build a replacement reality out of ideology detached from who you really are. Living in a self-constructed universe is not great for mental health.

How Christianity Invented Childhood "Under Roman law a father held a legal power called patria potestas, or “total ownership,” of his children. He could sell them, deny them property, or abandon a newborn on a hillside. The child was not a person but property under the law. What a surprise then that the so-called “paternalistic” Apostle Paul upended five centuries of that system in a single verse when he wrote “Fathers do not exasperate your children; instead bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4). Roman law already demanded obedience to the father under pater familias. So Paul’s revolutionary challenge to the system was not to challenge obedience, but rather to tell the man holding absolute power he had a duty to the best interests of the child rather than himself." --Joshua Van Lange in The Federalist

Practically overnight, we took an ancient vice—long regarded as soul-rotting and civilizationally ruinous—put it on everyone’s phone, and made it as normal and frictionless as checking the weather. What could possibly go wrong? theatlantic.com/magazine/2026/…

This story really is so good.

Conservatives who attend church weekly are the least likely to have ever been diagnosed with a mental health condition. Liberals who have low attendance are the most likely to have a diagnosis.

“Heaven isn’t full of good people. Heaven is full of people who understand they’re not good enough.” —@WesleyLHuff to @StevenBartlett Bold. Clear. Kind.

If Christianity rests on the conviction that truth exists and that society ought, as far as possible, to reflect that truth, then Christians should direct their political participation toward shaping a social order more consistent with God’s creational design.

Thank you, @JonathanLeeman and @HeathLambert

Yesterday I got to teach our church a chapter from each of these books (evening service and men’s SS class). I am very thankful for resources like these and for all of the work that these authors put into them. They are serving our church well. I highly recommend both books.

"We cannot vex the devil more than by teaching, preaching, singing, and talking of Jesus." - Martin Luther

We take Christianity for granted as the background beliefs of Western culture, like wallpaper. Take, for example, human rights: “That we are all of us possessed of certain fundamental rights, simply by virtue of being human, and of a dignity that embraces our entire species, are doctrines so widely accepted in contemporary Britain that many of us barely recognise them as doctrines at all.” --Tom Holland, historian

What a paragraph from @jake_meador:
