Many critiques I see of online church are like “you can’t get everything you need through a screen.” This is true, but it still is such a consumeristic view of the gathering. The biggest limiting factor I see isn’t in what you can receive, but in what you can contribute.

Why do churches always post things like “worship was awesome this morning” and then just show pictures of their band on stage? Isn’t the result of proper worship on Sundays more Christlike behaviour in their communities Monday to Saturday and not just a slick sounding set?

Is it just me or did Stranger Things really step it up with the horror in season 4?

Does anyone else remember how satisfying the noises were that the iPod scroll wheel used to make?

I frequently listen to Hans Zimmer while I work. Everyone receiving emails I write while vibing to the Interstellar soundtrack:

Mcdonaldization: The process by which the principles of the fast-food restaurant are coming to dominate more and more sectors of society. Efficiency, predictability, calculability and control. It's heartbreaking to think about how these values have crept into our churches.

What’s your favourite Jesus quote that is obviously literal but often gets interpreted as metaphorical? I’ll start. I love when Jesus tells the rich man to “metaphorically” sell everything he owns and give it to the poor.

You’re the real deal, Mike. It’s been an honour to serve on a team with you. You taught me just as much when you were off stage than the moments you were on it. Loved the message, but let me tell you, it was hard getting on stage after with my mascara running down my face.

The resurrection is not the reversal of a defeat but the proclamation of a victory. The King reigns from the tree. The reign of God has indeed come upon us, and its sign is not a golden throne but a wooden cross.

A king who dies on the cross must be the king of a rather strange kingdom. Only those who understand the profound paradox of the cross can also understand the whole meaning of Jesus’ assertion: my kingdom is not of this world. - Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Can’t stop thinking about this GK Chesterton quote this morning: “Christianity has not so much been tried and found wanting, as it has been so difficult and left untried.”
