Just a thought: when all information (not wisdom or knowledge) is monetized, how can we ever expect discourses to be based in truth?
The crisis in our world right now is caused by no one having any idea about how to evaluate what’s true and how to decide whom you trust. Christians should be experts at this and yet we have been revealed as the worst offenders.
I am so thankful to have a pastor like @BCooP. His conviction about living our whole life to God and worship him alone - not politics or mammon - is a battle cry for the next generation of the American church. Watch it at NewSpring.cc/live.

Who is your Jesus? 1) Does your party shape your worldview or does knowing Jesus shape your world? 2) Do you talk more about why your party will save the nation or why God saved you for another kingdom? 3) Do you shame or demonize people who oppose you, or bless + befriend them?

Secular humanism RIP “We must be very patient in awaiting its collapse,’ he wrote, ‘meanwhile redeeming the time: so that the Faith may be preserved alive through the dark ages before us; to renew and rebuild civilization, and save the world from suicide.” - TS ELIOT

I am constantly amazed at how little fruit comes from the labor of my sermons. We have to get people into the scriptures themselves for deeper formation.
One talk a week cannot do what daily, deep, meditative reflection on God’s word can.
And then the power of living it out.

It is also difficult to understand systemic inequality when your identity depends upon believing that everything you have you earned in a meritocracy.
