PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

How should Christians wrestle with violent texts in the Old Testament? Can these texts still teach us about God?

A woman was holding a funeral for her husband when a strange man walked in and sat in the row directly behind her.
Near the end of the service, he leaned forward, tapped her on the shoulder and asked the widow,
“Would you mind if I stood up and said a word?”
She replied,
“By all means.”
The man stood up, cleared his throat, and said,
“Plethora.”
Then he sat back down.
The widow smiled through her tears turned to him and said,
“Thank you. That means a lot.”
A moment later, the same man leaned forward again and asked,
“Would you mind if I added another word?”
“Of course,” she said.
He stood up and said,
“Bargain.”
He sat back down.
The widow dabbed her eyes turned again and said,
“That meant a great deal.”
Just then, another man stood and asked,
“May I say two words?”
The widow nodded.
He nervously walked to the microphone and said,
“Water pit.”
When he sat down the the widow went over to him and smiled kindly and whispered,
“Thanks… I know you meant well.” 😅🤣
Does anyone have a handy chart or 1-page guide of some sort that covers the rules of Akkadian normalization?

Albright on urchins: "I do not doubt for a moment that there were many urchins ... who could read and write as early as the time of judges although I do not believe that the script was used for formal literature until later" #urchins

Very cool moment just now in Toronto. Raptor fans were chanting for Kyle Lowry to come into the game. The long time Raptor won an NBA championship there 6 years ago. And Sixers Coach Nick Nurse had Kyle come into the game to a standing ovation.
