Actually, this is completely believable. And that's the problem.

Laura, thank you for giving your thoughts. I dont always agree with you but your respect and commitment to fair conversations is why I follow you. You lr posts always challenge me to think and grow even if I end up at a different conclusion. Thanks you for voice. God bless :)
Okay, let’s actually break this apart. First: the idea that consent cannot exist across authority lines is not unique to the church. It also exists at your therapist or doctor’s office. It also exists at your workplace. So if we say that actually people can freely consent to sex

I’m linking two recent trending topics: Because I believe in a literal conscious eternal torment for all who reject Jesus, I lament the death of Rob Reiner. It is a shame that his talent and creativity were never harnessed to glorify his Creator Oh Lord, show mercy to sinners

There is a serious problem when we get to the point where we say that people under authority cannot consent. Some cases of spiritual abuse ≠ all cases are spiritual abuse It’s like the Nuremberg Trials playing out in the church. “But I was just following my pastor’s orders”
It would be trite to say “daddy issues,” but maybe not entirely wrong? She knows her dad would be considered an abuser if she admits that someone under the spiritual authority of a spiritual mentor/church leader cannot consent.

Before our church sent us out as missionaries we went to Bible college, I went to seminary, and we served as leaders in the church for five years. That is pretty much standard But, let’s send our kids to public school to be missionaries before they are even fully developed. SMH
If all Christians flee the public school system it will have no light at all. We are not called to leave the world. We are called to change it.

I’m going to be the biggest Ole Miss fan for the playoffs. Lane had a chance to leave respectful and thank the players and fans. Instead he chose the high school drama route and went all passive aggressive petty. Good grief
"Despite the team asking me to keep coaching". I think everyone that was in that room would disagree

I’ve thought this since the Texas game. Next year is not a rebuild for the Gators. There is a to of talent on the team and any competent coach with a good staff should succeed the next few years. Plus, the lack of discipline issues speaks to the maturity of the group
@AstuteAlligator This is the take . How can we claim to be a turnkey operation if we thought there was only one coach in America that could win here ? Hire a good coach and put the NIL and staff salary behind him you were going to give Lane and you will get the same results

This is very well said. In the DR at least, I so often see well intentioned help cause more harm than good as it creates an attitude of dependency and perpetuates the idea that poverty is merely a lack of resources instead of a broken concept of stewardship and God given propose
@megbasham Well, now you've done it. It goes something like this: There is a way of thinking that sees a person or nation that doesn't have things, and says "If we just give them things everything will be fine." Some indeed think this is the Christian view. It is not. We have seen that

Urgent, I have credible information that Skynet, has sent a killer robot back in time to kill my wife and I before our future child leads an uprising that puts an end to all future AI world domination…
🚨 URGENT Two days ago I was contacted by a high-ranking employee of the French Government. After determining this person’s position and proximity to the French couple, I have deemed the information they gave me to be credible enough to share publicly in the event that something

Family vacation has given me a chance to do some fish-laxing. No phone, no rush, just the kayak and the water. The beauty of God’ s creation is on full display in these little creatures. The Chavón River is gorgeous too.

Also, your Christian liberty allows you to make your own decisions, but don’t be surprised if someone else with stricter standards thinks you are acting the fool and encourages others not to follow your decision

Having standards based on biblical wisdom is not legalism. A standard not obligated in Scripture can still be the moral choice when wisdom principles are applied. Instead, legalism trusts in those standards as a source of righteousness but their presence does not equal legalism

Dr. Miller does an excellent job of showing the current crisis in higher education. You will learn from listening to this episode. The podcast is one of my favorites as focuses on scholars talking about their field of research. Check it out!

The biggest issue is his ecclesiology. Multi-site, multi-service churches do not allow for real pastoring. A shepherd smells like his sheep because he spends time with them and knows them.
Greear says at one point that he had to speak to two congregations in the same church the Sunday after Charlie Kirk was shot. One who thought he was a Christian martyr and one who thought he was a vile racist. This what you get when you fail to disciple your people in politics.
