He wouldn't let me order a take away coffee. And I'm so glad. Pause to Partake—a few thoughts I've shared about invitation on my Subtack, The Foundry. open.substack.com/pub/adriel…

It’s good to see some of this articulated so thank you to the author for such time, thoughtfulness, and care. Two thoughts as I read it: 1) I don’t know anyone who would identify within this broad category who would actually like to be identified as an “Umm.” 1/
Disoriented. Demotivated. Discouraged. Disembodied. After two years of upheaval, @MikeDaMoore reflects on why some Christians have stopped attending Sunday services for now—and what church might look like for them in this liminal time. christianitytoday.com/ct/202…

what we 'should' aspire to and house church is just a temporary fix to help us get eventually there. On the contrary, some haven’t returned to institutionalized church because they don’t want to. They've found fellowship, teaching, worship, and ways to observe sacraments... 3/

within homes and small groups of other believers in deeply meaningful ways. These aren't people who should be “getting back to church.” These are people already gathering in healthy, fruitful ways. In short—this is church, too. /end

I was so proud of Australia's response to Covid last year. Now I'm just embarrassed. @ScottMorrisonMP the grace period is over. You've had plenty of time. FIX this. Get more vaccines. 4% of a tiny population is a joke. Fix this. And solve our border issues. Time's up, sir.

Hey Mr @ScottMorrisonMP we’re done. Open our borders. It was necessary for a time but we know how to do it safely now. Sincerely, Half of Australia
For readers confused about why there are there so many Australians overseas... A key bit of context is that Australia is one of the most multicultural, ethnically diverse nations in the world. Half the population has at least one parent born overseas.

I can’t think of any subject this doesn’t apply to.
I redesigned my entire website, graphics, and several of my most important pages yesterday and the day before. So yes, I’m definitely in manuscript writing mode. #amwriting 😬

My parents' generation feared losing us from Christian community to "the world." Now my generation is concerned our kids (and our peers) are rejecting Christian community because of the church. Jesus isn't the problem here. Thank you for articulating this so well @drmoore.

We are losing a generation—not because they are secularists, but because they believe we are. What this demands is not a rebranding, but a repentance—meaning, as the Bible does, a turnaround. russellmoore.com/2021/04/15/…

“If @JoeBiden ends the fiscal year as the president who presided over the lowest number of refugees resettled in the history of the program, which he is now on track to do, that will be his legacy, not President Trump’s," I explained to @WNGdotorg world.wng.org/content/biden_…

Normalize Grief (a thread) Grief is personal. It doesn’t work on a tidy timeline. We respond to it differently, are impacted by it differently, and are changed by it differently.

So instead of pretending grief doesn’t exist, why don’t we invite it to speak and get curious about it: Welcome, Grief.* What do you have to say? *Not just my own, but also the grief around me that I struggle to understand. #BelieveWomen #BlackLivesMatter #StopAsianHate 13/

These are more than just hashtags; they represent pain and promise and a chance to do better: #blacklivesmatter #believewomen #aboriginallivesmatter #stopasianhate #metoo #pregnancyloss #lgbtq #blackdeathsincustody #changethedate #indigenousrights —ALL of this pain matters. /end
