My story has so many similarities to Jen Hatmaker’s, but we’re in very different places with our relationship with Jesus - at least at the moment. I wrote a little about how that happened. There’s so much more to my story, but this is a start.

I am struggling to contain my rage at Christian leaders/pastors who propped up and enabled this treacherous wickedness, and have brought such utter shame on the name of Christ and his people. Shame on every one of them.

If you need two minutes of jaw-dropping, heart-filling, joy at someone's gifting, this *delivers*.

You and Samuel are blaming Wilson’s decades of monstrous behavior on….a woman. A woman who has been dead for years. #selah

I’m honestly wondering what our Chinese family would make of the news that they could worship God freely as long as they met outdoors, wore masks, and socially distanced.

If you're a woman whose formative years were shaped by the Reformed alphabet ecosystem of TGC or SGM, you should do two things: 1. Read this *before* the reactionary defensive hottakes pour out. 2. Read this in a quiet, safe place where you can process your feelings out loud.

Built this yesterday with my family and suddenly realized that Lego building is the perfect activity for mixed NT/ND gatherings.

I was closely involved with much that's reported in this story. I was a longtime GCC member and a staff member during David Gray's tenure. I knew him and his family. I know some of the women referenced, and some of these stories. They are the tip of a toxic iceberg. 1/3

A former Grace Community Church elder and former members who sought help from their abusive marriages are calling out “awful patterns of counseling” at John MacArthur’s church. christianitytoday.com/news/2023/febr…

I don't know who needs to hear this, but a great test of a pastor's convictions that "women should be treated like fine china" is a biblical idea, is how he responds when a woman tells him about her husband's emotional or psychological abuse.

I need an entire Twitter feed of children reminding us how to really see God's world for the wondrous thing it is.

Things always seem terrible around here, but yesterday my daughter saw her first waterfall and I got to watch her face.

An anesthesiologist who doesn't understand the basics of his field needs to be reported to the state medical board and ushered into a different line of work. Period.

Life update- last Saturday I married this remarkable and wonderful man. I never believed I was worthy of the kind of love he gives me. But on Saturday I committed to steward it every day for the rest of my life. I love you, @tlberglund ❤️

One of @timkellernyc legacies will be his measured, gracious, kind, and dare I say it - Christ-like way of teaching. I can't think of a better way to honor him and his family than for Christian Twitter to declare a social media cease fire for a while. #timkeller

The more experienced you are with how hard it is to be heard and believed, the more gratitude you feel when it happens anywhere. God bless Hohn Cho for his costly work on behalf of the abused. And God bless @kateshellnutt for stewarding and reporting this story so well. 3/3
