Clickbait has saturated the market. Cheap drive-by discourse is a dime a dozen. People are weary of autoplay nonsense and being yelled at by the Internet. That stock is falling. What stock is rising? Thoughtfulness. Paragraphs. Fresh insight. Very soon attention farming will be

This is a beautiful, simple yet profound book with one of the most powerful messages I’ve encountered in a book for kids. On my first read-through, I couldn’t help but choke up. Marvelous work from Alyson Punzi @cedarville and @crossway

Why make this point? Because you *can* reject this. You *can* have human beings in your life you celebrate with. You don't have to wait until Trump/economy/capitalism/elites/whoever makes it feel normal. YOU HAVE A CHOICE. YOU CAN CHOOSE PEOPLE OVER AI.

One of the replies to this says, "Normalize having friends." Having friends *is* normal. It was always normal. It will always be normal. Relationships with code are a choice. They're a choice we are making to get out from under other choices we've made.

Yep. The 90s were genuinely shocking in terms of what 13 year olds could regularly see.

"So you've already worked for 7 years for this guy?" "Yeah." "And he promised you his younger daughter if you worked for him 7 years? But he only gave you the older daughter." "Exactly." "You got him to promise you all this in writing, correct? You signed a contract?"

Over the summer, I began appearing on The Reconnect with Carmen LaBerge (@carmenlaberge) on MyFaithRadio. What started as a one-off interview on my smart glasses article for @TGC quickly became a recurring visit to discuss news and trends in social media and AI, and I now have a

I’m gonna try to write something longer about this. But for now, one observation: It is truly disheartening how many based evangelicals have responded to Charlie Kirk’s death by calling their peers to abandon the work Kirk did.

I have seen sentiments like this one circulate widely lately. While the observations about “reality respecting” unbelievers have truth, this comes perilously close to telling Christians that a certain class of non-Christian is unworthy of being evangelized.

I’m convinced that the most fertile mission field right now is right-wing unbelievers. Right wing and left wing unbelievers are not the same. It’s a naive pipe dream for churches to play the middle, offending neither left not right, in order to reach both with the gospel. It

God has bypassed the church pulpit and given His gospel to influencers, politicians and podcasters, and it’s because most pastors have become useless motivational speakers.

We had a bomb threat as I was preaching about Kinism at a church in Kentucky this morning. Someone left a suspicious box in front of the church and called the police. We obviously have to take this seriously. Please pray for the church and please pray for me and my family.
