Once a young woman came to see Charles Haddon Spurgeon and asked him if she could date a young man who was an unbeliever. She said her aim was to lead him to Christ and so she had decided to be engaged to him soon. Spurgeon asked the lady to climb up onto a high table. She could not but obey. Spurgeon already quite advanced in age, told the girl to grasp his hand and try her best to pull him up onto the table. She tried but of course, she could not do it. Then Spurgeon said he would pull her down. And with just one pull, she came down. He said ''It is easy to be pulled down, but hard to pull up.'' That sister gained clarity that day. I hope you have, as well.

A good knight does everything he can to protect his country. And voting is the best way we can do that right now.

“Start with empathy, mention rules and fairness, and end with a little more empathy.” In this segment from The Briefing, I examined a political strategy outlined in The Atlantic and asked whether the so-called “sandwich method” offers voters an answer—or simply avoids the question. From the October 6, 2026 edition of The Briefing.

I am on the road, and just got set up at my next location. I see the darker side of social media (which is most of it) is alive with yammering about Sam Sey. I haven't said anything about it because I, like all the stinking rest of you, haven't a clue what is going on. I don't care who "has a friend who has a friend" and what they say. When Sam gets to speak for himself, then we can comment meaningfully, if we choose to do so. Till then, it is all a bunch of noise, and lots of folks on both sides have jumped to conclusions because they spoke without sufficient facts. That being said, the vile, disgusting behavior of the Christless Nationalists truly turns the stomach. These folks have completely sold out to the same spirit that motivated the Brown Shirts nearly a century ago now. And I have challenged a few to attempt to think rationally and substantiate their wild claims--and found them incapable of so doing. I comment on the grossly unbiblical attitudes displayed in one instance, and they respond, "So you want your country over-run by Muslims" or some other such absurd statement. No, I don't, but you morons yammering on social media while hiding behind anonymous accounts, or following Alex Jones sycophants, are doing a whole lot less about it than I am, that's for sure. It truly is an amazing thing to observe, and, yes, I do believe it is part of judgment upon the culture. So how about we all just learn to sit on our hands and patiently wait for actual, verifiable information to become available? Maybe give brother Sey a chance to speak for himself? Is there any reason why that is a problem? Or to put it another way, if you got caught up in something with the government, would YOU want people to go crazy with speculation before you had the opportunity to explain and defend yourself? Think about it.

We invented machines to save time. Then we used that time to work more. Washing machines, emails, AI. Every tool promised us freedom, and every time, we found a way to fill the gap with more tasks. Maybe the problem was never a lack of time. Maybe it's that we feel guilty doing nothing. But rest isn't laziness. A field left fallow grows richer. A mind left quiet finally hears itself. It's Saturday. Do less today. On purpose. 🌿 #Saturday
