People are upset with the protest inside the MN church. They would be even more upset if Jesus came in and looked into the hearts of those present. He would make everyone in the room uncomfortable with how much he wants to change. Church, may we invite him in to confront us all.

I said this with the Kindle release and I say it now, the ending was the perfect bookend to an incredible story.

Will there be a day where you talk about the species of characters never confirmed in the book? Maybe a 10 year reveal on Patreon? I'd love to confirm who Arch and Sheriff Thorgood are.

Watching the Anaheim Ducks over the last 16 games has been hard. I've been to at least 5 of those games live. Horrible stat of the day: They've allowed an empty net goal in the last 4 games on a row and in 11 games this year. It may not be a good strategy anymore.

Just finished it. I am always impressed with how brutally honest Reese is about everything. As one whose favorite FIF song is Huerfano, I'm glad you closed the podcast talking about it. It would be a good band closing song (but I hope it's not. Need more FIF in my life.)

No, no, no. I couldn't make a intentional reference.

Ooh, ooh, ooh. Ooh, ooh.

I can barely handle this album it's so good.

Quite a triumphant follow-up to a band-defining album. Fun, poignant, and pants without ownership. How could you go wrong?

Happy Reformation Day. Maybe we need another 95 Thesis posted on some churches today.

On the way to work I saw an electronic billboard for No on 50 in Spanish. Let me get this straight, the party of "This is America, Speak English" and "We can racially profile you to kidnap you" is forsaking their core values to try to get votes? They'll target you for votes and arrest. nICE.

So i read all the Left Behind books when they came out. One of the"signs of the anti-Christ" was that he was going to have a head injury and then sign a peace treaty with Israel. I haven't heard that description in a while.

Because our punishment has been paid for, being that there is no condemnation for those in Christ, and our divides have been reconciled by the sacrifice of Christ, we should be living freely beyond the curse. We would not balk at a slave being a pastor, nor one of any ethnicity. Why decry women?

Galatians 3:28 says that there is neither slave or free, male or female, Greek or Jew in the church. All inequity caused by sin have been equalized as we are one in Christ. So why are we so adamant that the penalty of sin in Genesis 3 continues with inequality? Our oneness and unity overcomes sin.

Oops, there goes another false prophet. #RapturePredictions

I'm all for breaking stuff... like breaking the patriarchy, breaking nationalistic desires, breaking the desire for power through politics. We need to break our desire to be rich and powerful and break our pride as we humble ourselves to be servants of all. Let's get those Breakers. And also surfing

I saw someone say that calling someone autistic is now offensive as they should be called Tylenol-Americans. I think my kid would prefer Acetamerican instead.

Saved.

What does loving your neighbor and your enemy mean? It means wishing for them what your desire for yourself and acting to make it happen.

He has the opportunity to be Rahab in these people's life. He could be Miep Gies.
3. If he decides to rent the property for a night, either he should collect no money as this is a ministry to the migrant workers or use the money to pay for food, drinks, toiletries, supplies, etc. to cover needs.

is turning over the Israelite spies over the to government of Jericho. In our current culture, if someone calls in someone as undocumented, we have no guarantee the person would be treated with the rights they are due and could be sent to inhumane camps to be sent to somewhere they've never been.

My two points to his concerns were:
1. If they are being trafficked, shouldn't we ensure that they have one night where they are shown the love of Christ unconditionally? That's a great ministry opportunity.
2. I think we are at the point in this country where reporting undocumented immigrants...

1. How was he to know the farmer was not trafficking these migrant workers. Should we report in case?
2. Could he get in trouble for harboring undocumented workers in our current climate?

I advised he communicate with churches in the convention who do have migrant worker ministries.

I was talking with a pastor and he brought up that a local farmer with migrant workers was asking if he could rent out his church for a night so the migrant workers could have a roof over their head after a long day of work. He was concerned about a couple of things:

This country's haunted by the ghost of Adam Smith.

A couple of my kids and I were talking about who would be able to survive in the Villains Code universe from the Superpowereds universe by @drewhayesnovels.bsky.social . It was an interesting discussion. The one unanimous was Titan. A good argument was made for Michael Clark. Most split: Zero.

I saw recently a bunch of posts about no one saying anything about gun control when Trump was shot. It isn't true, as Biden himself said we need to do sometime about guns after the shooting. Let no one say no one asked for something to be done with the Kirk shooting because something must be done.

He stole that from Abraham Lincoln, wise Internet guru.

Cheering for the worms?

Old guy in Cracker Barrel gear running from a Cracker Barrel store carrying a handful of files labeled, "Epstein Files." He looks happy.

I'm guessing the Cracker Barrel guy is on his way to hide the Epstein/Trump files.
