A weekly church "small group" where men eat store-bought muffins and discuss their feelings is not brotherhood. It is a support group for defeat. Real brotherhood is forged in shared labor, shared liability, and shared danger. It is men who co-sign on land, trade equipment back and forth, train each other’s sons, and show up with work gloves and tools when a brother’s roof caves in. David’s mighty men didn't bond over coffee talks. They fought shoulder-to-shoulder in the cave of Adullam. Turn your fellowship into an operational phalanx.

'Speed' derives from the Old English 'spēd,' which referred to good fortune/success. This sense of 'speed' lives on in 'Godspeed': "God spede you" = "God prosper you" We hope this brings you up to speed.

No, uncle Andrew was evil. The “misunderstood antagonist” is such a subversive trope in modern children’s storytelling

The best part of being married is getting to say "let me check with my wife" about something you personally have absolutely no intention of doing.
