I move to strike the phrase "speak your truth" from modern English. Users may choose from these options: "speak the truth," "share your story," "share your view," "speak from your experience," "tell the truth," "proclaim the facts," etc. Truth just is. You don't define it.

If the US House of Representatives doesn’t elect a Speaker within 48 hours, our independence as a nation is automatically revoked and we become a British colony again. So, I hope you all like nationalized health care and chicken tikka masala.

Just to clarify: Hating Jews is sin. Hating Africans is sin. Hating Europeans is sin. Hating Asians is sin. Hating LGBT+ is sin. Hating women is sin. Hating men is sin. Hating conservatives is sin. Hating liberals is sin. Hatred of any kind is a sin.

You will never convince me that if a woman is “just” raising children, she does not need to know good theology. As far as I’m concerned, those who train children needed to be the most solid in their theology. Only the arrogant think this job beneath their talents.

The reasons why a woman might be unmarried and/or childless are highly varied, and I trust God to know a person’s heart. But this much is clear from Scripture… God loves the childless woman. God treasures the childless woman.

This Jordan Peterson thing isn’t about him. It’s about girls who grow up hearing everyone say, “You don’t have to be thin, or busty, or have a particular nose, or [fill in the blank] to be beautiful,” but deep down we all know that we’re being judged on those exact things. 1

Deborah is probably the most upstanding person in the Book of Judges, yet many conclude that she must have been a curse to Israel because no men would step up. Her gifting was however legitimate, and God used her and Jael to shame the strong things of the world.

Maybe the focus on racial reconciliation among certain evangelical leaders, as opposed to abortion or sexual sin, isn’t because they are trying to please the world, but because racism is prevalent in conservative churches while acceptance of abortion and sexual sin is not.
