"When Christ ceases to fill the heart with satisfaction, our souls will go in silent search of other lovers." -John Flavel

Wowza. This is fantastic — not just because it's beautiful, but because it's gloriously true.

Sex is an instinct that produces an institution; and it is positive and not negative, noble and not base, creative and not destructive because it produces that institution. That institution is the Family.

This might be the best use of social media in history.

Why am I just seeing this now? This might be the greatest MLB X account interaction. A lot of screenshots but definitely worth your time. Follow along in the thread below because this might be the best thing you’ll see on here all week. I wonder if these two are married or still together.

Good leaders do not hold a monopoly on power. Good leaders are actively giving authority away and raising up others to serve.

You can be a complementarian and be for women studying the Bible. If you wake up one day to find yourself arguing that women shouldn't study the Bible, you should earnestly discern the unbiblical and ungodly presuppositions that led you there.

So much of the Christian life can be boiled down to two simple truths. 1. You are no longer your own. You belong to Christ. 2. You are no longer 𝘰𝘯 your own. He gave you the church.

Southern Baptists: This is a common sense proposal that will fix a recurring problem at our annual meeting - a problem which is unnecessarily causing confusion and controversy over a matter in which 90% of Southern Baptists agree.

Below are the ages of several godly men when they completed their race on this earth: • Charles Spurgeon - 57 • Jim Elliot - 28 • John Knox - 58 • William Tyndale - 42 • Robert Murray M’Cheyne - 29 • Samuel Rutherford - 60 • Jonathan Edwards - 54 • Dietrich Bonhoeffer - 39 • John Owen - 59 • David Brainerd - 29 • John Wycliffe - 54 With many of us men in our 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond, it's sobering to consider how many men at this point in life had already finished their course with joy. May the Lord teach us to number our days (Psalm 90:12), and help us truly grasp how short life is. May we faithfully serve our Savior with whatever days He has given us.

It's Tuesday. But Sunday is coming. #ResurrectionChangesEverything
