The ‘homeschooling is only possible for rich people’ take is pretty interesting (read: terrible) given i and my three siblings have been homeschooled on my parents’ missionary salary almost our entire lives
🚨Exciting news for the Millers! Recently, the Pacific Northwest Presbytery approved Seth as the church planter for Immanuel Presbyterian Church, their newest mission church in Post Falls, ID. Our first Lord’s Day worship service(s) will be held on Nov. 12th.
I think it's ok to desire that Christian ethics are normative for society while maintaining the integrity of the church as a separate and purely ecclesial body
*Listening to Things Unseen*
Sinclair Ferguson: “you’ve probably noticed that…” and he proceeds to list off a keen observation of Scripture I’ve never before thought of in my entire life
a cleanse for your timeline: Immanuel Presbyterian Church received its very first group into church membership during morning worship today, and Seth was received into membership in the Pacific Northwest Presbytery this week to boot - joyful times for our congregation!
Rosaria Butterfield addresses the 1000+ GRN gathering. “Big tent evangelism has failed to see that the sends of the gospel are in the garden…it loses all power to speak to our sin nature and what it means to be an image bearer, man or woman.”
And so it begins! We had a wonderful first Lord’s Day with the saints at Immanuel Presbyterian Church - the Lord provided for our every need and then some. May we always hold fast to the firm foundation of Jesus Christ and his most excellent Word.

, I fondly remember GA last year, where I met my now husband for the first time in person. So it’s about time that I introduce you to…
The Millers, est. 3.24.23
In PCA church, they make you sprinkle your babies. If you don’t, they force feed you haggis and Conecuh sausage until you learn to smoke up good barbecue, collect bourbons, and choose one 19th century Presbyterian to be a little weird about for the rest of your natural life
In Anglican church, they make you worship the royal family. If you don't, they beat you with cricket bats and pour hot tea down your throat until you sing God Save the King and sacrifice your firstborn in front of an icon of Elizabeth II
A little Saturday morning reading for the tl…can’t believe I haven’t read this before. I fear there is a great temptation for many to rest on our laurels and neglect spiritually life-giving doctrines of sin, salvation, and the person of Christ. Highly recommend!
As much as I appreciate being acknowledged as a sister from the floor, I’m pretty sure that when speakers at
#pcaga
use the term “fathers and brothers” it’s because they’re addressing other voting commissioners and not intending to exclude any ladies present.
Happy 50th birthday to the denomination I was almost born in, grew up in, was a missionary kid in, got married in, and now serve in as a congregant and pastor’s wife. May we continually lay hold of our rich heritage with doctrinal fidelity, humility, and true piety.

The church will never perish
Her dear Lord to defend
To guide, sustain, and cherish
Is with her to the end
Though there be those that hate her
And false sons in her pale
Against or foe or traitor
She ever shall prevail

For those of you who have been following along with our new church plant, Immanuel PCA, we now have our sermons available on our website! I happen to think they’re fabulous, but I do have a bit of a crush on the preacher.
my hot take on the current Facebook situation is that they launched a self-aware AI that took 2.5 seconds to look through the entirety of Facebook and then committed suicide
I officially want Twitter threads banned. Easily the worst thing to read on this site. Totally destroys the brevity we were once famous for. We’ve devolved into the new, worse blogosphere. If you’ve got that much to say, just write a blog post and link it. I explain below: 🧵⬇️
don’t look at that horrendous movie trailer. you know which one. look at this steak my husband made and tell me it isn’t the best thing you’ve ever seen
When reformed Twitter has a bad day, like today (and many others), it makes me think we should all delete our accounts and go back to arguing in the comments of bad WordPress blogs, like civilized people.
Compare this timid Filipina laywoman urging the Methodists not to redefine marriage with the smooth, manipulative talk of the Southern clergyman who says "it's time" to make it a free-for-all.

good evening friends, fans & haters: it’s my absolute pleasure to announce that I have been allowed a platform and I’m going to make it everyone’s problem. Presbygirls
