Do audiobooks count as reading? No. Nothing counts as reading. You're not in school anymore, that's not how this works.

20ish years ago, a musician named Kendall Payne performed in chapel at my Bible college. I loved her music, bought her CD, and now a few songs off that album are in my all time greats.

I'm annoyed that you even have to do this, but make sure you turn off "Smart" setting in Gmail so Google doesn't train AI on your personal information

Gmail can read your emails and attachments to train its AI, unless you opt out
A new Gmail update may allow Google to use your private messages and attachments for AI training. Here's how to turn it off.

Friends, most of us will live, labor, and die in obscurity. But God sees. God knows. And his approval is all that matters.

I always love when an author has a good description of adolescence:
“They both have the rangy look of boys who are no longer little but who won’t be men for some time yet. All teeth and elbows and knees, they need haircuts and baths. (1/2)

Came to church with a heavy heart, re: everything going on.
Still heavy. But seeing the saints and worshiping Jesus together is deeply grounding.
Yes grief, but in hope.

Im putting it out there right now: if I die suddenly and tragically, and my family tries to resurrect me through the power of AI, I will haunt them so badly they're gonna spend the rest of their lives building neverending mazes of stairwells and hallways as part of their infinitely expanding home
At 4p ET/1p PT, I’ll have a one of a kind interview with Joaquin Oliver. He died in the Parkland school shooting. But his parents have created an AI version of their son for a powerful message on gun violence. Plus TX Rep. @jamestalarico.bsky.social - see you soon on Substack and later on YouTube.
