The excellent new @netflix series “Death by Lightning” has encouraged me to take a deep dive into researching President James Garfield. What a great President he could have been. We need him today!

After 6 months post academia, I've discovered one focus of modern ministry that may distract pastors more than anything else: A focus on leadership. When we focus on leading others, our eyes are on ourselves and developing ministry skills. I'm not sure Scripture supports that.


How can it be the “Revivalry” when tcu doesn’t want to be known as “Christian” anymore?#SicEm #tcu

Michael Allen on Baylor's team Bible study growing: "That's probably been one of the coolest things that I've done here at Baylor ... We've had a lot of guys get baptized here in the last year and a half, two years, and that's what it's all about." Full quote🐻⤵️


This is the first August 20 I haven’t spent at Gethsemani Abbey in 20 years. Today is when we give thanks for St. Bernard of Clairvaux, who died on August 20, 1153.

My spiritual director entered his rest yesterday. Fr. James was 93 years old and entered Gethsemani when he was just 16. monks.org/july-25-2025-f…


Some wise words from Cyprian today from The Unity of the Catholic Church: "Let no one corrupt the faith by a perfidious prevarication of the truth" (Ch. 5).


We may have just moved to Texas and are in an empty house, but @LEX18News Derby Coverage is still part of our Derby Day!

We’re in our first Central TX thunderstorm and Weather Call sends me an alert - from @BillMeck! Now I’m doubly glad I kept my subscription when we moved away from KY.


Teach all day, pack all night…


In 1 week we move to Waco, TX after a total of 27 years in the Bluegrass. Honestly, one aspect of central KY I’m really going to miss is @BillMeck and his amazing weather team @LEX18News. What a gift you are to KY! @EmilyMcKinneyWx @baynefroney #TomAckerman


Great whiteout crowd at the @BaylorWBB game! Could someone please tell the students behind the tcu bench to uncross their arms and make some noise? #SicEm


I was able to preach at First Methodist Waco this past Sunday, where I’ll become the new senior pastor following the spring semester @AsburySeminary. I’ll miss the ATS community but God has made this transition abundantly clear. I still hope to teach at ATS part time.
