If the Brazos Press announcement has you landing here - hello & welcome! Kelsey Kramer McGinnis & I are hard at work researching the historical development & theological/ideological underpinnings of popular Christian parenting approaches & how this shaped families & views re: God. 1/2

I would pay good money to attend an aerobics class called FIRM BELIEVER, set to worship music led by Beth Moore and Amy Grant !!!

I guess by age 40, one should have an emergency fund, be debt-free and have a retirement nest egg. *gulp* New ep. in the RNS series “Tell Katelyn What to Do with Her Life”: I get my 💸 house in order with Amber Hacker Elizabeth Oldfield and my nephew religionnews.com/2024/08/22/how…

Something I wonder about guys like D’Souza is whether they were once not like this and lost their conscience along the way, or whether they were *always* like this and Trumpism simply gave them permission to be cruel out loud. Former president of an evangelical college! 👇

NORMALIZE 👏 EMOTIONAL 👏 REGULATION 👏 ON 👏 THE 👏 INTERNET

I'm now a personal finance guru, listen here to learn how to retire by 22

i think this is technically a corporal work of mercy, however unorthodox this particular video may be

The Brazos Press team and I are grateful to be partnering with Christina Edmondson (Christina Edmondson) on her first solo book, on how leaders can heed Wisdom for decision-making and organizational health. Out in 2026!

Oh, hi, I recently turned 40 and have big questions about what to do with my life. Filling out the RNS special summer series, I hit the motherlode and ask: Should I become a mom? Thx to Richard Clark ☎️ chuck degroat Roxanne Stone Elizabeth Oldfield for joining! religionnews.com/2024/08/29/sho…

"Character counts? That’s so passé. Being pro-choice is a moral travesty? Only, it seems, if you’re a Democrat. Moral relativism is a threat to our nation? Not if you’re part of MAGA world. . . Love your enemies? Not if they’re progressive." Peter Wehner theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Obviously a topic close to my heart, since I had – and have! – a baby on my own. If you’re unpartnered and wondering about becoming a parent, my dear friend Katelyn is asking some of the same questions. Worth a listen, if for no other reason than to know you’re not alone. 💛

Paul Rudd has been married to the same woman for more than 20 years. They own a candy store together in upstate NY. Paul Rudd’s essential goodness is what holds together my entire worldview.

Recently someone asked me what my ultimate comfort movie is and without missing a beat I said SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, followed closely by MRS DOUBTFIRE … my goodness can you imagine the mashup

Mark Noll’s “The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind” turns 30 next month. (I don’t mean to pick on Billy, but the tweet betrays a deep evangelical devaluing of education, even at a Christian college, for its own sake. Here, learning is “programming” rather than formation.)

NGL I'm a little chuffed to know the existence of Beth Moore still upsets so many of these very-online anti-woke brethren. A tweet joking about the exhaustion of raising kids has them clutching their man-pearls and quaking in their Top-Siders. They seem fragile!

the kids are on tiktok romanticizing MGMT and being a college student in 2006, just thought i'd let yall know
