The Episcopal Church hosting drag shows in its seminaries and the Russian Orthodox Church proclaiming that dying in Ukraine brings salvation may occupy opposite ends of our politics, but they're symptoms of the same disease: the submission of the church to worldly culture.

I have a real issue with the whole "go to church and find a wife" line. The church is a place of worship to the living God who died for us, not a dating service. It also sets young men up for disappointment and bitterness when they find out there are no young women available.

I appreciate Polega's honesty and clarity here. One of the problems I have with Roman statue veneration is that, despite theological hair-splitting over different "kinds" of worship, it almost always devolves into basically Western Shintoism on the ground.

The Gospel is a disruptive force. It challenges not just the structures of our societies, but the structures of our hearts. Wherever it is faithfully proclaimed, it will be viciously opposed. Some will try to stamp it out, others will attempt to enslave it. All must be opposed.

I do not understand why so many people think a philandering Massachusetts aristocrat getting assassinated by a mentally ill communist was this moment of cosmic rupture that unleashed all evil things on the world. Especially considering Kennedy was a pretty conventional president.

I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna jump into the Nala discourse. The pro-Nala and anti-Nala types are both jumping the gun. We should be happy she's converted, but converts need to be tested and formed. Rather than cheering or condemning her, we should be praying for her.

There will always be villains and charlatans seeking to capture Christ's church and make it a slave of their own ends. Defending the church from such schemes should unite Christians the world over across boundaries of race, ethnicity language, and nationality.

The four types of ACNA Anglican: 1. Happy-clappy Charismatics wearing stoles 2. 1970s Anglo-Catholics doing guitar mass 3. Grouchy liturgical traditionalists (๐Ÿ–๏ธ) 4. Liberal ex-vangelicals deconstructing their way to Unitarian Universalism

I've really come to dislike the generic cassock-alb + stole look that has basically become the default for Roman Catholic and liturgical Protestant churches. I much prefer a billowy English surplice with hood and tippet or a full Sarum fit. Gimme those Anglican distinctives!

No one who calls themselves a Christian should support Modi. I don't care if you think he's a "based nationalist," the brutal persecution of Christians in India has happened under his watch, and more likely than not with his approval.

Went to a very evangelical PCA church today. Wonderful people. Fantastic sermon delivered by a humble, Godly pastor. But the music...let's just say evangelical songwriters aren't beating the "Jesus is my boyfriend" allegations.

When did informality become the rule of the day in Church of England evangelicalism? I can understand the rejection of ritualism, but even evangelicals tended to wear choir dress or at least a clericals until relatively recently. When did the polo shirt replace the surplice?

In order to do this, we must submit our worldly identities to the Cross. All of our worldly identities must be deconstructed and remade into a new identity, one defined by God, not by us or our cultures. It is only through this process that we can find Christian unity.

What we really need is a further revision of the 1922 prayer book (rendering it still more ecumenically Catholic/Orthodox) and then all Anglican churches to use this one book. If anyone suggests I am out of touch here, then they themselves are out of touch with generation z.

You see, being modern means the only clothes we're allowed to wear are drab business suits and the only gatherings we're allowed to have are business meetings in gray conference rooms. No color, no culture, no fun allowed. Being modern means being grim and miserable all the time.

What love about this meme is that anyone who grew up in the mainline knows exactly who this woman is. They know what her voice sounds like, what her personality is, and what last week's sermon was about. I don't need to watch King of the Hill to know everything about her.

This is why most political theory, particularly the kind that obsessively sorts political ideologies into their own little boxes, is bunk. People are weird, messy, contradictory creatures. A very similar phenomenon is found among normie lay Christians.

I suspect that the Church Fathers would have been more "catholic" than many evangelicals would like and more "evangelical" than many catholics (RC and Anglo) would like. But not in a mushy "via media" way, but in a way more intensely both than either modern grouping.

@CrankyFed Watching boomer comedians doing "I hate my wife" sets is soooo cringe. I've never understood where it comes from. One of the things I appreciate about Jeff Foxworthy is that he clearly loves his wife, and his jokes are more about the shared humor of married life.
