If they know I am experiencing comfort and peace in the middle of my cancer, their hearts pause even further, at least for a moment, to hear the story of God’s comforting love in Christ. buff.ly/g07HYI3
In this excerpt, Kaitlin Chappell Rogers shows how God will always give us what we need and our responsibility is to follow him wherever he leads us. buff.ly/f2n2iBX
Should I even bother going to church when I’m not going to be in the service most of the time?
In the disorienting, frustrating blur of fresh motherhood, this is a crucial question. First, your baby always needs to eat and/or nap during the service.🧵
Then, he becomes mobile and wants to practice walking rather than sitting in the pew. Next, he learns a word and wants to shout it repeatedly at top volume. This leads to months—or years, if you have multiple children—of wondering, Will I ever sit through a whole service again?
We must stop pitting head knowledge and heart wonder against each other. The God we worship created us to love him with all our hearts and with all our minds. buff.ly/cFrdQWg
The Lord created the world to operate in rhythm. The sun and moon cycle through the sky each day at set rhythms. The seasons come and go and come again according to an established rhythm. The ocean tides both surge and recede at a precise, predictable rhythm.🧵
Even amid a world at chaos, the whole thing rides on an ancient foundation of rhythm.
If we stop to notice, we’ll even feel the rhythm inside ourselves.

“Develop your leaders . . . or die.”
God doesn’t want you to plant a church that “needs” its pastor all the time, a church where every answer to every question comes through the church planter. Instead, church planters must develop a community of leaders. But how?🧵
How do you develop leaders while preparing sermons, fundraising, and and finding a new place to meet because you just learned your current meeting location got rented to someone else?
There’s a growing tendency in women’s Bible study circles to minimize the value of biblical scholarship—to eschew commentaries, lexicons, and even Bible study curriculum in favor of a simpler approach. “Just you, your Bible, and the Holy Spirit—that’s all you really need” . . .🧵
or so they say. If I’ve heard it once, I’ve heard it a thousand times. Ironically, I’ve most often heard this sentiment from the lips of Bible teachers who have clearly spent no shortage of time deep in commentaries themselves.
