Love this. And also, since Jesus knew what he was going to do with Lazarus, I think Jesus' grief is also for Martha and Mary. That is, he is deeply moved by *their* grief.

That's comforting to me, too.

Please don't let anyone ever tell you that your grief is a sign of weakness or a lack of trust in God's sovereignty.

Not embarrassing. Humiliating.

Good call.

You know, if this Jezebel spirit, not-staying-home, LPM thing doesn’t pan out, you might be able to make it as a fitness coach.

So @bethmoorelpm.bsky.social can I take the day off tomorrow?

That sounds like a promise, Beth. I'll hold you to that!

Bob Kellemen had a great thread over at the bad place. He's made it into a blog post. Worth reading if any of this conversation is your jam. rpmministries.org/2025/02/bc-b...

Y’all. Southern Baptists deserve better.
Christian counseling deserves better.

Do not listen to Heath Lambert. /end

@skyview.social unroll

I don't like how he went about this with his daughter. But this isn't really a celebration, for example. fbcjax.com/first-though...

Hi Shelia! As you can tell, I'm no fan of Heath. But I don't think it's probably fair to say he "celebrated" that situation in his family. As much as I don't want him to mischaracterize others, I need to be consistent and not mischaracterize him.

If those ages are right, that bothers me, too.

Y’all. Southern Baptists deserve better.

3) And while he mispresents his critics and minimizes his misbehavior, he can’t help but lament (twice) about his world “getting small” and how boast about how important people with big names were actually on his side. He's massaging his ego at Eric’s expense.

He claimed Eric:
- made total and utter mockery of God’s word.
- slandered God’s word.
- was guilty of both faithless teaching & faithless living.
- had an unchanged and corrupt heart.

Don't believe me? Here's the video. He's minimizing this misbehavior towards Eric. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPP4...

2) He says if he was at fault for anything back then it was for calling Eric Johnson “dangerous.”

To be clear, he actually said Eric was one of "the MOST dangerous Christian psychologists."

You know what else he said about Eric?

His critics are not calling for an end to his public disagreement. They are calling for an end of his personal attacks.

It is disingenuous and dishonest to claim this is just a tactic of sore losers. He misrepresents his critics.

I don’t think any of that is right. At all. His critics aren’t afraid of public disagreement. The problem is that Heath engages in gross personal attacks on others *during* his public disagreements.
