I wrote a book review for the American Historical Review but did not experience the joy of reviewing books until I reviewed James Baird's King of Kings.

if you don't welcome, you're unwelcome.
đšTRENDING: San Francisco Giants pitcher Sam Hentges declined to wear the teamâs Pride Night cap on Friday night, infuriating some members of the fanbase.
âIt was equal parts bigoted and embarrassing, and blame deserves to shine throughout the organization,â Giants analyst Brady Klopfer wrote, noting that several other players wore the Pride hats but wrote biblical verses next to the logo.

what if your kids are baptized Presbyterian or Lutheran and the evangelicals take the kids?
Adam Madden, the latest published author for New Christendom Press, gave a great word on the war for the productive Christian household!
âThe more context (time) you can leverage with the next generation of disciples, the better. The more content (Word) you can teach, model, and apply with the next generation of disciples, the better.â - Adam Madden
Build a productive Christian Household, donât let the pagans take your kids.

what do you bet?
.@Brian_Sauve opened up the conference talks with a great message.
ââŠyou will not win your war for normal by simple accumulation of the right theoretical knowledge or the right mental model of an ideal political system, or the same for an ideal ecclesiastical structure.
Donât let knowledge accrual and theory accrual function in your life like world-building functions for a fantasy novelist. An elaborate mental model of the world as you think it ought to be wonât, by itself, do almost anything.
Worse, it can actually keep you from doing anything, because you get so bogged down in an ultimate and hypothetical future ideal state that you become paralyzed in terms of taking the next three steps in front of youâbecause of course those steps arenât good enough. After all, theyâre all sorts of mixed up with sub-ideal circumstances and realities.
All of this can become like a relief valve for actionâwhere the mere act of thinking and writing and posting and debating is substituted for the meaningful and concrete action itself.â

it's like 17 centuries of history didn't happen (or as if Augustine was channeling Jesus to Pilate in the first century).
Church history comes at you
Augustine to a magistrate (Letter 155). Civic rule is ultimately worthless without inculcating a desire in the populace for true piety towards God.

why do Christian Nationalistis like @ivmiles?
2/ is CN about establishmentarianism? Political philosophy? Race-realism? Kinism? Illiberalism? Or is it âall of the above, and stuff I donât like,â etc? Because what âCNâ is âtalkingâ about seems hard to narrow down.

"the inspiration for their gritty Western wasn't John Wayneâs original film, but a rediscovered love for Charles Portisâs original novel. After reading it aloud to his son, Joel Coen realized the unique, darkly funny narrative voice was the real star" youtu.be/FLhocsr9Cek?si=k70iâŠ
