That sentiment sparks Doerge's critique of traditional churches. "So much of churches' lives are about survival," he said. "It's like, 'We've got to put programs in place, we've got to have good sermons, we've got to do all these things to get people here so that the church survives.' "We don't have to ensure our own survival. That's the gift of the resurrection. That enables risk-taking. You don't have to be right; you don't have to survive as an institution. We are not put here to ensure our survival or the continuance of us. We're here to follow Jesus."

It marks the first systematic assessment of whether an association exists between a ban on corporal punishment and the frequency in which adolescents get into fights.

“Incomparably the most important thing is that each one of us should be sensitive to the call of God to ourselves and not spend time in passing judgment on the lives of others.”

re: that last post, ive said it before and ill say it again: no one deserves to die (deserving is fake and death is bad) but some people need to be stopped and choose to make death the only way to stop them

Israel has banned children’s insulin injectors from entering Gaza
Children can die within a matter of days without insulin. In even less time a lack of insulin will cause blindness, nerve damage, and kidney failure.

much to my mother's continued confusion, not only do churches confusingly continue to offer me pulpits from which to preach, but they're increasingly excited to pay me for the opportunity as well lmao
