If you asked me for thoughts on using the phrase “White Boy Summer,” I would encourage you not to. Mostly because it sounds like something 14-year-olds would drop in a text thread, not a term adult men who have jobs and families and discipleship responsibilities would use.

Christians publicly praising and denouncing magistrates, owning land, buildings, businesses, advocating for local legislation that honors God, running for local magistrate positions… growing in political influence—unashamedly Christian.

Church small groups stifle hospitality. They do more harm to the warmth and culture of a church than good.
Hospitality must be taught, modeled, and encouraged by church leaders. It should be challenged from the pulpit and in private.
Seminaries should reject men who must work their wives to attend their schools.
Seminaries should not accept money from creditors for men to attend their schools.
Seminaries should not provide government assisted housing for families to attend their schools.

What’s divisive is characterizing political discourse with such polarizing language. Evil? Apparently, if you want a Christian Nation you cannot also engage in evangelism and discipleship. Who knew?
The CN battle matters & here's why. It fundamentally distracts the church & the Christian from their primary role & purpose; therefore, it is an attack on the bride of Christ & the Christian.
Anything that attacks the church is ultimately from the pit of Hell & Satan 1/3

Lost in the American church is a pastor's awareness of the power he has when he speaks from his pulpit.

There is something wrong with a woman who does not like or want children.
When a person loses their situational grip on present reality they resort to instinct. While visiting a memory care facility recently, I took note of an elderly woman holding a real looking baby doll.

Many Kentucky teachers chose the outrage narrative spun from Bevin’s fiscally responsible pension decisions over the lives of children in the womb. They can’t plead ignorance as one of Beshear’s campaign promises was to allow more abortion clinics to open up.

Thank you for standing against those calling us to not listen to short theologians. They exert a lot of influence and we need voices speaking out against such clear abuse.
I’ve voted every year since I was first eligible in 88. I’ve never voted for a candidate that I believed was a genuine believer. I’ve never voted for a candidate that I felt embodied Christian ideals. But, there has always been a clear choice—a better candidate for America.
CHRISTIAN, noun:
A disciple of Christ; one who believes in the truth of Christianity & studies to follow the example & obey the precepts of Christ
CHRISTIAN, adjective:
A description of a family, company, culture, state, or nation substantially conforming to precepts of Christ
When understandable disdain for pro-life incrementalism transfers to American politics some abolitionists will refuse to vote for a clearly better-for-all candidate. IMO, Trump is the best and most strategic move to further my long-term hopes and goals of complete and total

Yes! And biblical.

This news comes on the same day we’re hearing that the Commonwealth’s pension program is being shorted $83,000,000 in the new governors budget. It turns out that neither children, nor pensions are safe under Andy Beshear.
Here are John MacArthur’s fuller and clearer statements on mental health from his book “Counseling: How to Counsel Biblically” pages 254-256:
Does biblical counseling deny the existence of mental or emotional illness and the healing that is necessary in these areas?

dishes it cleaned?

Bivocational Pastors, it’s Monday. Hit it! Slam a quick coffee. Pray in the car. Work to the Glory of God. Don’t quit. Find more elders to carry the load. And, if you can rest, do it.
A woman who kills her preborn child should be subject to the same laws that a mother who kills her born child is. The location of the baby must not give a woman immunity from taking a life.
“Dig a hole and put her down.”
This is disgusting and vile and no way to speak of any human being made in God’s image, including a woman who has had an abortion.
This isn’t pro-life, or the way to deal with this issue. Utterly reprehensible.

The whinny graffiti messaging is gone. College outragers for hire have left. A working man cleans up their mess and earns another dollar for his wife and kids. We will outlast the left. We will persevere.
We're told today that Christian men should "dominate" women. But in the biblical story of David and Abigail, we see the opposite: David humbly listens to Abigail's wisdom.

Being “emotionally present” or having “safe relationships” with other men is lady speak. It’s gay greenhouse vocabulary that repulses men. In the same way modern Christian music sounds gay to men, and so they don’t sing.
Men need a band of brothers they’re in the trenches with.
Worship IS warfare. We should sing the Psalms unashamedly. The Gospel and and the consummate victory of Christ over all is unintelligible without violent language.

Friend, God will not be trivialized. He will not be reduced to what is convenient. He must be the center of your life—around which everything you think and do orbits.
God still does miracles today.
He intervenes in ways that can only be described as supernatural. They’re inexplicably wonderful events that cause the people of God to marvel and be thankful.

Dr. Fuller saw during his tenure men starting seminary on fire for Christ but finishing cold. When God’s Word was taught they had a critical mindset.

Your inner monologue should be well-informed, Scripture-rich, and God-pleasing. But, it should never be confused with the voice of the infallible Holy Spirit. God is not speaking to you with a voice in your head. That's you, not Him.
Yes, I have spoken to them—both at abortion clinics (going in and coming out) and as a pastor of women who have killed their children.
Jenna, when we claim that a woman is a victim, we cut her off from the hope of the Gospel. Why does she need Jesus if she’s a helpless pawn?
@LizzieMarbach
Have you ever actually talked to a woman who has had an abortion? I’m sure it will win hearts and minds to know that the CN movement wants to “put them down” like they’re “less than worthless” Noem dogs.
