Faith - Hey Salty Lady

Grieve deeply. Mourn brokenness. Speak slowly. Listen carefully. Pray fervently. Weep for the lives stolen today. AND THEN, BY GOD, WAKE UP. SPEAK UP.

We can no longer define or distinguish what theology is enough to adequately defend, honor, or allow it… much less appoint high priests.

The only thing that separates any of us from being the walking wounded turned walking wounders? Grace. Grace alone. 

It wasn’t until high school or college that I became aware of some of the complex layers and dynamics. I much preferred the obliviousness of childhood.

What do you say when the only true things are hard things and the things that would best be said, are not true?

Do you know why the Bible says, “My flesh and heart may fail… BUT God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever?”

Did you wonder if the God of the Bible could still captivate, activate and change the whole world at once? You should not be wondering now.

Friends, the clearest and best indicator of the judgement awaiting us is our utter inability to value life or protect children. Millstones! Get your Millstones!

Why do we allow ourselves to assume the postures and positions of the guilty or condemned when such a precious price has been paid to make us free? Be done. Gonna be a hard pass here.

How many teenagers are we expecting, encouraging, or equipping as though they will change the entire world?

It’s a thing. You can make observations, valuations… wait for it… differentiations (isn’t vocabulary fun?!) WITHOUT BEING GUILTY OF CONDEMNATION.

The sky turned black in the day, fish floated in streams, animals died in their pins, crops… food… skin… tumors… Plagues in East Palestine?

Take cover! There is a functional, nuclear family ahead… complete with loving marriage between man and wife… the horror!!

The young people that we think require the lights, the look, and the loud… to encounter the LORD? Don’t.

This is the first of two posts on worship, multiple perspectives on one moment. HOW we worship matters to WHO we worship. Here’s why…

With every song, show, and celebration the world broadcasts its depravity loud and clear. Roll out the red carpet, shine the trophies while you can. Rest assured this party ends on earth.
