Why are they so invested? None of it’s real. So why are their emotions so real? Why do they laugh and fear, grieve and cheer over people who don’t exist? Stories engage our imagination and stir our affections. They invite us into experiences that mere propositions rarely can.
It makes a real difference to say the positive first and then introduce any necessary qualifiers afterwards. The thing you really want people to hear, that’s the thing to say first. (From 2016)
Rather than responding to difficult moments by seeing them as anomalies and outliers, we need to begin to regard them as regular and normative. The cross is God’s salvific M.O., it’s not a surprise but rather the regular timetabled activity.
Leon Morris was an extraordinary man: authentic Australian, genuine believer, great intellect, courageous intellectual, clear communicator, striking preacher, prolific author, able leader, patient teacher, humble Christian, and willing servant. (From 2016)
I see my role to be more of a conductor than a performer. I’m keen to connect God’s people in working together for the sake of the gospel and the glory of God.

We thank you for those in our church who are grandmothers and great-grandmothers. Help them share and model Christian wisdom and love to their younger generations. We praise you, Lord, for those of us who have enjoyed the numerous blessings of a good mother.

In adapting to social changes influencing early adulthood, churches can fail to help emerging adults make the move into responsible adulthood ... When do your young adults need to come to terms with the fact they are just ‘adult-adults’? When are they no longer part of the ‘next gen(eration)’ and they are just the current gen?
Dangerous in its lack of spectacle, disappointment can often lead instead to a subtle erosion. It erodes trust in a good God rather than explodes it. It tempts us not so much to rage at him as to quietly turn away, turn in, and turn off.
I believe God wants me to be a lifelong learner. To inform my mind for his glory, for the sake of all who live without the hope of Jesus, and for the building of my brothers and sisters in Christ.
