We don’t get to redefine Jesus. Don’t take my word for it
Even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many—Jesus Mat. 10:18
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness so must the Son of Man be lifted up—Jesus Jn 3:14
So good. Good teaching/leadership principles on display:
communicate clear expectations
critique concisely
encourage more than critique
speak to and with, not down
model the aim
explain the future benefits
encourage again
Join with me in prayer, please.
Maggie was discharged yesterday afternoon. Caitlin and her will stay in Jackson until her outpatient clinic appointment Thursday morning, where she will receive her first dose of medication for TMA.
Please pray this medication would be effective at completely reversing the damage done to her body, and that she would be safe from side effects and infections.
A good warning for pastors from Samuel Miller:
A wicked minister is the most wicked of all men. His sins are extensively and permanently mischievous than those of other men. He sins against greater light, and stronger obligations, and more solemn engagements than other men...
Returning to the dissertation after a 3 year hiatus. This is the setup for my week of study leave. I’d welcome prayers for clarity, focus, and fruitfulness.
A wonderful night doing a Q@A with our college ministry (Spartan Christian Fellowship)!
And some of the guys decided to welcome me with an “honorary Jason suit coat.” Thoughtful 😆
Doing the work of the church this week and watching @fredgreco in his element as our new Stated Clerk of the PCA.

Yembiyembi Scripture translation (Bisis) brought into the Bible Museum collection. What a day!
I love to see such passion/enthusiasm and…it always makes me think about the lackluster way we often approach weekly Lord’s Day worship.
Church, we have the greater reason, experience, promise, and assured hope (and to be fair, VT needs hope).
It was a delight to talk about the Lord’s work through our ministerial training program @UnivReformed with @derekradney for @a4mrofficial I’m hoping others will be encouraged to consider the same & some might help us refine the own program after listening.
It was an honor to write the foreword for such a helpful book on one of the most essential subjects. Take up and read.

How do we experience our relationship with God?
Find out in this book! Meeting God in His Means of Grace
"Christ does not meet us only when we can conjure something that is exciting. Not every moment has to be on fire to be lived faithfully with Christ." - @PastorPerks
ALT A quote on a white background reads: “Christ does not meet us only when we can conjure something that is exciting. Not every moment has to be on fire to be lived faithfully with Christ.” —Harrison Perkins. Below the quote is the book cover of "Meeting God in His Means of Grace" by Harrison Perkins, featuring a stylized design with a cross and graceful lines. The background has subtle leaf patterns.
A full and delightful Lord’s Day. I’m thankful for @UnivReformed Church.
Me and my girl at the close of the day.
