Yes. Also, that side table (ahem, the stack of books) with a lamp on it though...

Isn't it interesting that God grounds this commandment in his own rest on the seventh day (long before Moses). Isn't it interesting that Jesus speaks of the Sabbath as being made for man (and never releases us from keeping it). Then there is Hebrews 4:9.
The Sabbath (not circumcision) was the sign of the Mosaic Covenant. Which is why under the New Covenant, Christians are not bound to Sabbath. They’re instead bound to enter Christ’s rest EVERY day in faithful dependence on His righteousness. Today’s sermon on Ex. 20:8-11.

A good start to a necessary conversation.
Grateful to the fathers and brothers of the Central Florida Presbytery (PCA) for voting earlier this afternoon to adopt St. Paul’s overture (affirming the consent of the governed regarding assistant pastors) and sending it up to the General Assembly.

@JustinBorger @SEdburg Overall, I applaud the wisdom of moving in this direction re: Asst P's. Though it seems the OC will need to iron out some of the specifics as to the 3/4 majority and the restricting language of 5 years. Thanks for your work in getting a conversation started!

“Our high calling is to be in the world, not of the world. It is not our being in the world that ruins us, but our suffering the world to be in us: just as ships sink, not by being in the water, but by the water getting into them.” -Fausset writing on the problem in Judges 1-3

Wait, a reasoned, balanced perspective on AI? By a Presbyterian? And the sky remains in its place?
When we see AI as a tool, we put it in its proper place. Like a hammer or a calculator, AI doesn’t replace human effort or intelligence—it extends and enhances it. Preachers can view AI not as an enemy but as a servant. AI can not (and should not) do your job for you, but it can help you do your job better.

A friend shared this with me. I share it with you.
“We all long for Eden, and we are constantly glimpsing it: our whole nature at its best and least corrupted, its gentlest and most human, is still soaked with the sense of exile.” - JRR Tolkien It’s the professors birthday, post bangers

This is how you illustrate the gospel. Chills.
“The gospel is sweeter music and gives deeper pleasure than any siren song this world has to offer.” Masterful illustration from Sam Emadi.

I know I'm getting old when the New Year's Eve fireworks being shot off all around our house cause only one thought in my mind: "Don't you dare wake my sleeping kids!"
