Unless we are aiming at purity in Christ-centered counseling, we are likely to find ourselves navigating a path fraught with compromise and confusion. - Keith Evans

Q. 59: How art thou righteous before God? A. Only by faith in Christ Jesus. So that although my conscience accuse me that I have grievously trespassed against all the commandments of God, and have not kept one of them,¹ and further am as yet prone to all evil;² yet notwithstanding, if I embrace these benefits of Christ with a true confidence and persuasion of mind, the full and perfect satisfaction, righteousness, and holiness of Christ,³ without any merit of mine,⁴ of the mere mercy of God,⁵ is imputed⁶ and given unto me, and that so, as if neither I had committed any sin, neither any corruption did stick unto me; yea, as if I myself had perfectly accomplished that obedience which Christ accomplished for me.⁷ ¹ Rom. 3:9 ² Rom. 7:23 ³ Rom. 3:22; John 3:18 ⁴ Tit. 3:5; Eph. 2:8–9 ⁵ Rom. 3:24; Deut. 9:5–6; Ezek. 36:22 ⁶ 1 John 2:1; Rom. 4:4–5; 2 Cor. 5:19 ⁷ 2 Cor. 5:21 Orthodox (Baptist) Catechism

251 years of defending America's freedom, and we're just getting started. From the first musket shots in 1775 to the high-tech, multi-domain force of today, our Soldiers have always been, and always will be, ready to answer the call.

Thankful for the SBC’s upholding the bible’s teaching on women in the pastorate this week. Let’s give thanks for it, but also pray that the 25% who voted against it will repent and that the many others outside the SBC will take heed to our practices as well

Studying what is commonly called “Secondary Trauma” or “Vicarious Trauma” or compassion fatigue. What have you read on the subject or suggest as helpful to read on it?
