Promoting Plagiarism in Ministry
“I said earlier that our senior minister is a bit of an idiot. And it’s true—I am. Which is why I’m so thankful to have so many brothers and sisters around who are endeavouring to proclaim Christ and see people come to him. I particularly like the fact that they have been working hard to think through the how of making fruitful evangelism happen—as a minister, as a leader, as a church, as a community and as an individual.

Baseball Positions Are Starting To Lose Their Meaning
“In other major sports, positional labels have become less and less important, so why not baseball? In the NBA, centers and power forwards now routinely shoot threes, in part to increase their offensive efficiency. Defensive versatility, the ability to switch, is more and more valued. In the NFL, teams like the Patriots have valued positional versatility. And position labels are increasingly becoming irrelevant in professional baseball.”

Flashback: God, You’ve Got the Wrong Guy
Moses wanted to serve God out of his strength, but God wanted Moses to serve out of his weakness.
