In this excerpt, Jeremy Treat shows how the “sacred-secular divide” reduces Jesus to a life coach rather than the King of the Universe that he is. buff.ly/idAd2ft
Over the years, Elisabeth Elliot has been significant and influential in my spiritual journey. As my first mother of faith, I have been drawing strength from her example for decades. Learning about her humanness made me admire her life even more.🧵
In Elliot's ordinariness, she was subject to the same struggles and temptations as others that torment us all: annoying people, unpolished speakers, little slights, rude children, helicopter parents, and spouses with whom we do not always agree.
Circumstances we can bear, but people seem to be our problem. Still, though our fallen hearts are easily offended, annoyed, and quick to contend with others, God calls us, in Christ, to faithfully display his goodness to the world together.

The problem with well-being culture is not its diagnosis—mental, emotional, and physical health are real needs. The issue is that it lacks a coherent vision of what well-being actually is. buff.ly/QUtV2HS
Being older has some advantages over being younger because I have resources of experience that my younger self didn’t have, so I get to be generous now in ways I couldn’t then. buff.ly/b0bP6t8
Many believers admit their prayers lack depth. At times, we struggle to focus or simply don’t know what to say.
In The Lord Is My Light: A Liturgy for Daily Prayer, Trevin Wax has arranged 366 daily readings to encourage regular, prayerful meditation on God’s Word. 🧵
Bring both the disappointment and the gratitude to God. Let him ask the questions you’d rather avoid and trust him with the outcomes you wanted but didn’t get. buff.ly/8uAnn28
God will make a way, but we must make a move. Throughout Scripture, He gives His children the freedom to choose how they will respond to his leading. buff.ly/zs1vORP
If we believe our help comes from the mountains, I have incredibly good news. We’re wrong. Psalm 121 is the calm and kind voice of a friend telling us that we’re looking in the wrong places for shelter, help, and hope. buff.ly/ebKDbqz
I don’t want to be an older woman who disappoints others by not having the spiritual maturity that my experience makes possible. buff.ly/b0bP6t8
Let the blue dot serve as a reminder that you fit on an actual map in a specific time and place. God has purposed you to exist. Your certainty in Christ helps you view God, the world, and yourself with accuracy, fostering continued significance. buff.ly/OE8gdat
Growing up in the church, I loved Jesus, but there was a massive gap between my faith and my everyday life. I knew my eternity was secure but didn’t know what it meant for today. I knew I was going to heaven but wasn’t sure how to live on earth.🧵
