"We need friends who are neither scared by our sins nor impressed by our job performance." @aarongrahamdc @districtchurch

If we feel we absolutely must make our point, it's quite likely the very moment we should remain silent and wait for wisdom to kick in.

We've got to watch what we're saying on social media, folks. Hosea 8:1: "They sow the wind and reap a [tornado]."

"You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry." (James 1:9). Open ears. Closed mouths. Self-control. Help us, Lord.

Despite all the intensity churning around in the news at the moment, let's not forget that Jesus is still King over all of this--right now.

"Teach us, O Lord, the disciplines of patience, for to wait is often harder than to work." – Peter Marshall

"The purpose of growing [intellectually] is love." -- @justinfung @districtchurch #spiritualformation

Most of us aren't experts in most things. May the tenor of our opinions reflect the extent of our knowledge.

"There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind." -- C.S. Lewis

Advice from a friend about irritating folks who come on too strongly: Remember that the person's behavior is coming from a place of weakness

I used to watch soaps as a kid. You could come back after a month and it was the same old story. Kind of like political news.
