We noticed something sobering in family worship today: in Genesis 27, Jacob uses a dead goat and his brother’s robes to deceive his father; in Genesis 37, Joseph’s brothers use a dead goat and their brother’s robes to deceive Jacob.

God has not forgotten you. He has not singled you out for particular abuse. He is near and He is active. In love He is working on your biggest problem, and He will not stop working until the job is done.

🧵Trinity Christian College is closing. This will be a career-ender for nearly all of their faculty. Staff switch schools. Students transfer. Faculty are tossed in a market with evaporating demand. Why? 1) I've never been in a "missional" church that promoted Christian colleges.

Truths that anchor our soul: 1. God is still sovereign. 2. Christ is still reigning. 3. The Spirit is still interceding. 4. The church is still growing. 5. Scripture is still teaching. 6. The gospel is still saving. 7. Glory is still coming!

Captured last night- probably the coolest comet shot I've ever gotten. I've never seen such a dynamic tail on a come. Incredible active, and moving quickly, which makes photographing it a challenge. See how it moves in the reply.

Our President Larry McCrary and his wife, Susan, made it safely back to Madrid! They split time between the U.S. and Spain each year for ministry purposes. They're excited for what's to come—and already enjoying coffee at one of their favorite places.
