🧵My Latest: We are raising children to believe boredom is abnormal. The second a child says, “I’m bored,” many adults rush to solve it with entertainment, screens, activities, or stimulation. But what if boredom is not the problem but rescuing people from it?

This is Stetson Billings, 31. He’s a UPS driver. Some days, his wife brings his kids to meet him for lunch during his route. They are about to have his third child. Some parents would never want their sons to be UPS drivers but he is winning at life!

America, @ClemsonUniv is leading the nation by creating a program so that special needs college students are able to rush and join fraternities. Charlie is joining the Eta Alpha Chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha! Clemson is a truly special place! #GoTigers

Ian has never had a black friend. This is what we all do. My preaching in a traditional black church is the exact opposite of my style in a white evangelical church. Not even close. Code-switch is the double-consciousness skill we’ve all had to learn. Do whites not know this?

It’s pretty weird to change your accent on the fly depending on which audience you’re speaking to

Parents, I hope your homes are so full of love & joy that when your college son is asked about not being around you and his siblings, he has this reaction.

Remember when Derek Redmond’s dad put fatherhood on display before the entire world when his son tore his hamstring during the Olympics? #HappyFathersDay #HappyFathersDay2021 #dadsmatter

Last week, I reached out to 20 churches seeking housing for a homeless pregnant woman (20) and her boyfriend (21), who also need housing & parenting support. Only one responded thus far, saying they only help people involved in their church.

This church in Nigeria was burned to the ground by Islamic Fulani militants. In the US, Christians walk into churches with coffee shops and think of “persecution” as a culture rejecting their values. Meanwhile, Nigerian Christians are being massacred: 5 died on June 21st.

There was a time in American history when this was the goal of a “Man Cave” for middle-class men. Living like the aristocracy was a goal. Today, it’s TVs, gaming, not books. (Blah, blah, I know, “Well, not for me and I read on a tablet”…Ok, congrats. No need to reply).

It’s almost always working class men (of color) who have to clean up behind the graffiti of liberal elites: climate change, Gaza protests on college campuses, etc. Put that in the slow cooker…

Dear Lord, This sibling group, ages 14, 11, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 1, no longer has biological parents & needs a family to adopt them all. I pray that a church in Arkansas has a family with large home willing & able to keep them together. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Amen.

Parents, if your child reports being sexually abused in your church, go to the police. Let them handle it. Don’t go to the church leadership. Just call the police. I hate to say this but don’t assume church leaders will do the right thing. Many of them are too weak & pathetic.

It’s wild to me that a new parent social media challenge is letting your 10-year-old walk into Target to buy some snacks by himself, when we GenXers used to hop on our bikes and ride to the store to buy cigarettes for our parents.
