I believe that AI’s impact and future pathways are overstated because human nature is ignored in such statements.

Been saying this for a long time.
“Hard to ignore the fact that when everyone got to pay players, it leveled the playing field immediately. They can deny all they want, but that’s a fact.”

The SEC is 4-9 in bowl games this season. Does that point to an even playing field?

Been a while since I've posted #scenesfromawalk. Walked new trails today - the Marni Kaner and the Preston Ridge trails in Richardson.
Not sure why we've never walked here, but nice to keep the walks going into the new year.
4+ miles, loved the cloud cover. 🌥️

2024 was hard. I remember a year ago hoping 2025 would be better and then living through a hard 2025.
I don't know what 2026 will bring but I trust and hope.
Even if 2026 brings worse, God is with us.
Jesus is faithful and true.
Happy New Year to all. 🥂🎆🎇

The modern Eva church's tendency to see the OT as opposed to the Gospel, at worst, and as largely irrelevant, at best, is a reason the church's engagement in the work of justice & human flourishing has suffered.
Jesus said the law is good and that he came to fulfill it.
So should we.

Merry Christmas tide! There are 12 days leading up to Epiphany (Jan 6) so feel free to keep celebrating Jesus' birth and his first Advent.
It's okay to keep the tree & lights up, sing seasonal songs, and celebrate hope.
Peace on earth, goodwill to all.🎄

It may not be accurate to have the magi at the nativity (mixing Luke 2 & Matt 2).
But many Christians don't observe Epiphany so this traditional inclusion of the star, the magi, & their gifts allow for the Epiphany story to be remembered - Jesus, a light for ALL nations who came for all people.🌠🎄👑

Looking forward to speaking on Epiphany, Matt 2, the Magi, & the significance of this special observance.
Feels timely to celebrate Jesus' first appearance (epiphaneia) to the gentiles.
Grateful for a shepherd-king who is good, just, and a light for all nations.🕯️👑✝️🌠

The current idols that are harming the church and those in ministry:
performance, productivity, and platform.
(Sorry for the three Ps, I guess pastor brain is a thing.)
These idols undermine and mute the liberating ministry of the Spirit, the love of Christ, the grace of God. 🕊️✝️

As I look at the ministry landscape and see burnout, struggles, hurt, and failures, I am convinced of this:
We may say the right things about the Spirit and what the Spirit does, but we don't actually live and practice as if our pneumatology is true.💔

"How has Jacob rebelled, you ask?

Where are Judah’s pagan worship centers, you ask?
They are right in Jerusalem!" ~Mic 1:5 (NET)
Where was the center of rebellion & idolatry, it was in the heart of the nation.

A lament: We're called to be light, to be salt, & to do the kind of good works that cause our *neighbors* to praise our Heavenly Father.
Sadly there's a lot of the opposite, actually.
Many of our neighbors are actually hurt, marginalized, & pushed away from God by what Xians do. 💔
