My granddad took off in a car and was talking about suicide. The police are looking for him now. Please pray they find him safely. And pray for his soul.
Guys, please pray.
Little update: He was seen by a psychiatrist earlier today and was…
Praying.

thesweetersong:
Sometimes I can get so. sick. of. social media. More specifically, Christians’ behaviour on said sites. There just seems to be a trend on Tumblr and Facebook (and possibly Twitter) where Christians just whine, complain, and marvel at the world’s hatred and forwardly negative approach to Christianity. There’s also another fad where Christians’ keep rebuking, rebuking, rebuking...

Your Podcast Is Not Your Pastor →
“We’ll just become this amorphous, non-ecclesial movement where everybody is just concerned about individual flights to heaven and move from church to church to church based upon what the music is like or what the preaching is like and then become identified with these celebrities…celebrity preachers. One of the things that we have happening in evangelicalism right now is this rash of...

jspark3000: =================================== “Tumblr friends, please keep in mind that most of us here are 15 to 20 years old. Even if you’re 25 and married, you’re still a kid. That’s how the news would describe you if you ended up there. I’ve barely just turned 30 and my mom still thinks I’m a baby. That’s the straight-up truth; let’s not deny that. So if you’re asking...

Don't Be A Tumblr Christian →
biblicalmuse:
I see many young people on tumblr just going through the motions, forming sects, gravitating towards anything that revolves around relationships, and having a contentious rant about various subjects. They may even join a couple of webcam chatrooms to make themselves feel some bizarre sense of holiness and fellowship, all the while flat out neglecting true theology and people who...

Summary of my political views right now. →
mikestoleyobike:
I thought about doing a post about why I’m not a libertarian, but my problem isn’t so much with libertarianism, as it is about all forms of secular government in general. And so my ultimate political view is as follows:
Any government, whose axiom is not based on scripture, is doomed to fail.
Or to phrase it differently: Any government who’s underlying worldview is not based...

You're a Calvinist, Right? →
jamescabbagechen:
I’m Reformed in my theology. At this point in my Christian life it is the most accurate and faithful lens that I have in casting my gaze upon the God who is. However, what perplexes me is how often other theological viewpoints are slandered against. This is particularly the case with many young, enthusiastic Calvinists who crack jokes at Arminianism while not representing it...

“Preach the gospel at all times; when necessary, use words.”
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” But they have...
