Jesus is the hope of the world. The local church is the hope of the world. The church is Jesus's body here on earth, so both these things are true. You know what isn't the hope of the world? Any political party or leader.

Few people appreciate the challenge of pastoring. • Be a caring, thoughtful, shepherding presence • Lead organizationally with vision and skill • Oh, and prepare a new keynote address every week Pastors, I'm praying for us. Let's serve in the strength he supplies.

Definitely.
Even a good church, like its people, is unfinished. We should expect some awkwardness, disappointment, and repair in a family made up of people who are still being changed by grace.

Christian unity does not mean that we will agree on every policy, candidate, or political strategy.

Being a faithful witness of Jesus requires us to speak His words AND model His ways. When we are committed to one but not the other we do damage to the witness of Jesus

The Bible’s lack of an explicit or direct reference to any particular issue or matter does not mean it is silent on said issue or matter.

Life lesson of the week -> when at a zoo, maybe don’t jump in the tiger enclosure

X has been particularly wild these past few days. My chief concern for the church in America continues to be that we are being discipled more by the world than the Word.

When someone prefaces an interpretation of the scriptures with “the Bible is clear” - it almost certainly is not.

Halloween, in addition to having Christian roots, is the singular evening of the year when our neighbors come to us. Join us for Trunk or Treat on Oct 31 at City Church ABQ.
Halloween is a demonic holiday and Christians should not be celebrating it in any way

One of the more pervasive and insidious lies of our day is to deny that every human is born w/ a nature that has been corrupted by sin. If we are all born good then everything that comes naturally to us must be good & should be embraced & celebrated.

When we reduce Christianity to standing / salvation we completely miss the point. The invitation given to us by Christ is, “come, follow me.”
I am a gay Christian. Scripture is explicit that salvation comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not by perfect adherence to any cultural or sexual standard (Ephesians 2:8-9). The same New Testament that contains hard passages also declares that nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:38-39). My standing is defined by that grace, not by whether I meet every traditional expectation around orientation.

THE Bruce Dickenson???!!!
The Pittsburgh Steelers asked an Englishman to sing the American national anthem. Bruce Dickinson did it a cappella, no autocue, having never sung it before in his life. He held "free" for six seconds.

There is a difference between secular and secularism. What is the difference? This…
Le Parti Québécois s’engage à défendre la laïcité québécoise Je réitère aujourd’hui mon engagement envers le consensus québécois sur la laïcité. Alors que certains partis politiques seraient tentés de faire reculer le Québec s’ils étaient portés au pouvoir, le Parti Québécois fera tout le contraire. Non seulement nous allons défendre notre modèle de laïcité au Québec, qui sera attaqué dans les prochains mois et dans les prochaines années devant les tribunaux canadiens, mais nous allons également bonifier la loi sur la laïcité. Bien que cette loi comporte des avancées, elle demeure néanmoins imparfaite, puisqu’elle n’a pas su empêcher les épisodes d'entrisme religieux, notamment à l’École Bedford. Le Parti Québécois s’engage donc à maintenir les acquis de la Loi sur la laïcité de l’État dans sa forme actuelle, notamment les lois 21 et 94, et à reconduire l'usage de la clause dérogatoire. Il s’engage également à ajouter les mesures suivantes, à la lumière des constats dressés sept ans après l’adoption de la loi : 🔹Cesser le financement des écoles religieuses, c’est-à-dire des écoles qui bénéficient du crédit d’impôt à titre d’organisme religieux ; 🔹Interdire, pour tous les élèves du primaire, le port des tenues et signes religieux ostensibles dont le port conduit à se faire reconnaître immédiatement par son appartenance religieuse ; 🔹Interdire les partenariats entre les écoles et les lieux de culte ; 🔹Mieux encadrer les organismes religieux et communautaires en : -modifiant la Loi sur la laïcité de l’État pour enregistrer les lieux de culte sous une vraie dénomination de lieu de culte ; -modifiant la Loi sur les impôts pour exiger la déclaration des dons étrangers faits aux organismes religieux ; 🔹Documenter l’entrisme et les influences religieuses dans les écoles québécoises ; 🔹Augmenter la vigilance en matière de protection de la jeunesse pour protéger les mineurs qui sont entraînés dans des sectes. Les Québécois sont attachés à la laïcité et peuvent être certains qu’en appuyant le Parti Québécois, ils auront le meilleur parti pour défendre ce principe qui leur est cher.

100%. If it bleeds it leads - but all over America men and women are faithfully leading congregations to know and follow Jesus.
For every pastor who makes headlines for hypocrisy, abuse of power, or celebrity-driven ministry, there are hundreds of humble, godly pastors faithfully serving their churches week after week. Social media is not representative of reality.

Most Christians believe that upon one’s death, we will stand before God for some kind of accounting. In that we aren’t in the room where it happens, any speculation regarding the outcome of any particular person’s meeting with their creator is pure foolishness.
