Good morning. Monday means I organize and share various articles of interest. Sharing does not imply complete agreement. “Challenge” means just that. So, I invite you, challenge your thinking today!
Trump’s Cabinet
Nine Christians in Trump’s cabinet. With all necessary disclaimers implied about Trump, politics, etc, I do trust this writer and I find this interesting.
Question: Is God answering specific prayers in the Cabinet selection process?
Censoring Down’s Syndrome
The French government find a video affirming Down’s Syndrome children “inappropriate”. This should make us wonder why.
Question: why would a government not want to expose its people to this video?
Low Preaching Expectations
A challenging view of how we approach preaching.
Question: how do you value preaching and why?
Disappointing Worship
“The church is more like a dinner in, at home with family, than one out at an expensive restaurant.” Read this fine challenge to how we can guard our hearts during and in response to worship.
I think its dangerous to think that God is answering our prayers when we feel like our side is “winning”. I have serious doubts in Trump’s decision making, so am led to doubt he is going to choose the right people for his cabinet too. Plus just because someone is a “devout Christian” doesn’t mean they are the best person for the job.
Do you think the author’s point is made primarily because his side is winning?
