Jimmy Carter was the only US president I have ever met and spoken with—in or out of office. I was thirteen years old. In our brief encounter, we talked about faith and the Bible. I remain grateful for that opportunity.

The transfer portal needs to be regulated and more limited. This wild-west free-for-all is not sustainable or desirable for college athletics.

Maybe sexualizing everything has had destructive consequences for human flourishing.

Advent meditation from Luke 1:4: we can have “certainty of the things about which [we] have been instructed.” The evangelists have provided us with faithful and true accounts of what transpired in and around the birth of Christ. www.amazon.com/Conceived-Ho...

Eventually Christians are gonna be spotted as the people with more than one kid, kids with disabilities that can be detected in utero, and their sickly and elderly still with them.

This data from the Canadian government should horrify us. In 2022, medically assisted suicide accounted for over four percent of all death in the nation, making it the fifth-leading cause of death in the nation. We must be for life from conception to the grave. www.canada.ca/en/health-ca...

Sometimes, those most likely to harp on how sinful we are miss the other side of sanctification, a truth every bit as life-changing: You don’t realize the pervasiveness of Christ’s holiness in you. A Christian living by the Spirit does far more good than he or she even realizes.

“We give thanks to you, God; we give thanks to you, for your name is near. People tell about your wondrous works” (Ps 75:1).

My seven-year old daughter, watching me try to hold back the happy tears during “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever” movie: “Daddy, you’re embarrassing me.” Seriously: If you’re a fan of the book, you won’t be disappointed with the film. It’s heartfelt, funny, and focused on Jesus.

I tend to hold inside so much stress and pressure and anxiety, unconsciously, that I have found it helpful to • Pray a line of Jesus’ model prayer • Take a deep breath • Name what I release, based on that prayer • Remain quiet until it’s released • Move to the next line

“Comfort, comfort my people,” says your God. “Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and announce to her that her time of hard service is over, her iniquity has been pardoned, and she has received from the Lord’s hand double for all her sins.” Isaiah 40:1-2

I don’t know how many college kids I talk to who are a mess inside, unsure of who they are, where they’re going, and what they should do. Telling them to go deeper into the chaos to find an answer is a recipe for more anxiety and paralysis.

“God, within your temple, we contemplate your faithful love. Like your name, God, so your praise reaches to the ends of the earth; your right hand is filled with justice” (Ps 48:9-10).

Simeon (and Anna) modeled for us how we should celebrate Advent: “There was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, looking forward to Israel’s consolation, and the Holy Spirit was on him” (Luke 2:25).
