James 3:17-18 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

Southern Baptists, please consider your reactions today. When you aggressively hoot and holler when decisions are made concerning women, it feels to us like a threat. As Christians you are to display the love of Christ but that is overshadowed when you become combative. #SBC23

I was considering chaplaincy with @sendrelief . I want to serve those who are hurting. I want to share the hope of Jesus. Now I worry I would go through the training just for the #SBC to later decide that I’m not qualified b/c the role is too pastoral. Where do I fit?

I’m a stay-at-home mom who homeschools. My kids are older and self sufficient. I have an MDiv. I have tons of time to volunteer. But after the #sbc23 all I heard was stay home and sit down. I won’t stay home, but my time will likely be given to ministry outside the SBC.

My #abuse wasn’t dealt with by my #church because they thought my mom was lying. The state convention thought it was lies, but @IMB_SBC knew he was an abuser, brought him off the field, and refused to help us. The “biblical” way doesn’t work when you accuse people they like.

Why are people surprised when abuse perpetuated by Christians causes the victims to run from God and the church? Of course they will lash out against the beliefs of those who hurt them. You are not being the good news of Christ by mocking them. You only prove them right. #SBC23

Pretty awesome to have missionaries join us in worship. We truly are a global church. #SBC23

So apparently my sickness wasn’t a virus. I’m in the ICU for a thyroid storm. Doctors caught it before it turned bad. I’m hoping to be moved to a regular hospital room today.

I’ve been sick for seven days. I really need to get better. We are supposed to go see an orchestra on Saturday for my daughter’s birthday. I really want to be there for her. If you can spare a moment please pray for this illness to end so I can celebrate my baby.

@KimberlyOsment @SBCExecComm After a conversation I had with my state’s EC trustee at my state convention he offered for me to write a statement.

I do this too but with grown men touching children. #SBC

Before the SA I was oblivious to a man’s touch. Now, I notice every.single.time and I think about it for days afterwards. My trauma brain constantly replays these—more than likely innocent—events trying to figure out what the touch meant to them & what I need to do to keep safe.

@SBCExecComm Really? This is what you choose to promote today? Did you spend any of those CP dollars to pay for the Kentucky amicus brief supposedly filed on behalf of the #SBC ? I'm impatiently waiting for the EC's explanation.

Sometimes I struggle in my desire for #justice . I question if I will have to worship #Jesus in the new heavens and new earth along side the people who ignored abuse. I have found two Bible passages that bring me peace. #SBC

We finally made it back home to Iowa from New Orleans. My kids were so well behaved through the convention and now they are expending all that pent up energy in an epic pillow fight.

Update: A statement from Southern Seminary president Al Mohler on the amicus brief the seminary filed with the SBC in a Kentucky Supreme Court case: "We respect the rule of law and must work through the process with legal representation, who must speak for us in this case."

"Innocent until proven guilty" is a legal standard not a biblical standard. It's good for courts but it's not good for leaders in the church. The biblical standard for the church is "above reproach." Christians are called to God's standard not the government's standard.

I’m sorry to all the people I follow on Twitter if I have awkwardly run into you this week. I get excited to see you and then it hits me…I’ve never met you in person and you likely don’t know me. #SBC23 Anyway… have a nice week.

My kids are home schooled. They did extra work this week so they could spend all their time with me when I get out of the hospital. I love my family.
