It’s Commencement Day at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. In keeping with my tradition, I’m wearing my Dad’s 1983 @SWBTS class ring and old school lapel pin. Congrats, graduates!

Instead of running a 10K, which I signed up for months ago, I ran a Half Marathon today since my half training plan was 12 miles today. My second Half Marathon ever, bettering my time 14 years ago by 48 minutes. Dallas Half Marathon, for which I’ve been training, in three weeks.

Dr Mohler, thank you for talking about those with intellectual disabilities and the gift to the church that those who have them are! This is Stella (and Wendy) and she is a gift!

I had the honor of accompanying @davidsdockery for his first report to the SBC as president of @SWBTS and Danny Roberts for his last responsibility as chairman of the seminary’s board of trustees. It was a historic moment for the seminary and the SBC. #SBC2023
