It's easier than ever to be a man with much information and little meditation. Miles wide in the knowledge of things, inches deep in the knowledge of God. Busy-headed, not well-grounded. Feverish scrolling, scant extolling. Beloved, this is not the way to Christian joy.

A shepherd who can’t be known personally by his people is a disqualified shepherd. Walk in the light and live among the sheep, brothers. There is no such thing as a true pastor who is only known from behind a pulpit, a pen, a youtube channel, or a desk.
