When I was Muslim, I used to ask Christians:
“If Jesus was really God, why did He eat, sleep, and bleed like us?”
And honestly, I used to ask it with pride like it was some unbeatable argument.
But later I realized something:
That question was not exposing Christianity.
It was exposing my misunderstanding of what kind of God Jesus claimed to be.
Because the real question is not:
“Why would God become weak?”
The real question is:
“What kind of God would willingly step into human suffering at all?”
Islam taught me about a God who was distant and untouchable.
But Christianity introduced me to a God who stepped into hunger, exhaustion, grief, pain, betrayal, blood, and suffering with us.
And suddenly His humanity stopped feeling like weakness to me.
It became proof of love.
If Jesus ate, it means He came close enough to experience hunger beside us.
If He slept, it means He embraced the exhaustion we carry.
If He bled, it means He did not stand above suffering watching us from a distance.
He entered it Himself.
Philippians 2 says Christ emptied Himself and took on flesh.
Not because He stopped being God, but because He wanted humanity to finally see what God is actually like.
And it turns out God is willing to suffer for the people He loves.
That changed everything for me.
Because every other religion demanded sacrifice from humanity.
Jesus became the sacrifice Himself.
And no prophet in history ever claimed that.

“First of all, I wanna thank my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ… I’m just a nobody trying to tell everybody about somebody who saved my life. His name is Jesus Christ.”

Happy Mother's Day to every military mom.
The one who wears the uniform. The one who holds down the fort. The one who waits and prays. The Gold Star mother.
Mission 22 honors every one of you. Today and always.

If the government can shut off your car, then it’s not YOUR car anymore.

Imagine a woman fleeing an attacker—and her car won’t start because it thinks she’s impaired.
Imagine a farmer injured on the job—his truck won’t start because it thinks he’s drunk.
These are the unintended consequences of the Kill Switch mandate.
Kill the Kill Switch.

Rep. Roy on the kill switch: "Do you really want to put that kind of data collection mandated inside every car? At what point is there just literally no privacy at all anywhere?
A lot of Americans died to protect our Fourth Amendment rights so that we don't have government looking at our stuff."

From a mission to a movement. 🔥
7th annual. $1M raised. Countless lives changed.
Colossal LLC takes #22FORYOU Day to the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium on Oct 16, their biggest event yet.
Bigger stage. Bigger impact. Same mission.

This. Is. Terrifying.
This technology should NEVER be allowed to be used.
Ford can fvck right off and so can the Congress members who voted to put this tech in vehicles starting in 2027.

Today, we recognize those who endured captivity in service to this country.
Their strength wasn’t just in surviving, but in what they carried after.
We honor Former Prisoners of War — their sacrifice and resilience.

Missions game courtesy of the youngest 🥰 This pitcher now is good, but that first inning pitcher was awful. And when it’s this bad, you don’t pitch a second inning. 👋

El guitarrista polaco de 26 años, Marcin Patrzałek, responde a quienes afirman que su música es falsa.
Creó este video tutorial para mostrar exactamente cómo toca tan increíblemente bien y sí, todo está interpretado en vivo con una sola guitarra.

She told me no… and I kept trying to convince her anyway.
That’s the problem. We’re not here to convince anybody.
No means no. It’s a complete sentence.
Respect isn’t something you do to get something back — it’s something you do because it’s right.

The guy just landed a spacecraft on a comet — one of the most impressive scientific achievements in years.
His reward? A public struggle session because his bowling shirt had scantily clad women on it.
Helen Andrews points out the quiet cost of institutional feminization: HR departments now hunt down any maverick personality and stamp it out.
We’re losing innovators we’ll never even know about, all because someone focused on the shirt instead of the comet.
This is how wokeness actually works.
Have you seen real excellence get punished for something trivial like this?
