Derek Penwell A lot of Substack readers have told me this one landed in a tender spot. It's for people waking up to consequences they thought had someone else's name on them. Sharing the full piece here for those.....

great framing we would all do well to adopt from @derekpenwell.bsky.social #2026 www.facebook.com/drdlpenwell/...

Saying you love someone without caring whether they receive justice is like saying grace over an empty table.

The people most likely to say "thoughts and prayers" are often those least likely to be rightly invested in either.

Look, I'm a minister. I support prayer ... except when it's used as an excuse to continue allowing children to die.

If we aren't making the powerful nervous, then, as Jesus-followers, we're not doing it right.
