“…as government is beginning to frankly break down on a number of its core responsibilities, we ought to be thinking in terms of developing alternative institutions, resilient communities, resilient families (all anchored in churches by the way), to see to it that we can effectively carry out our dominion mandate..." - Dr. Glenn Sunshine at #TGFB24

Thank God for @ hodlbod and for the @Thank God For Nostr Podcast.

“The continual voice which tells you that your best actions are secretly filled with subtle self-regard, and your best prayers still wholly egocentric—must for the most part be simply disregarded—as one disregards the impulse to keep on looking under the bandage to see whether the cut is healing. If you are always fidgeting with the bandage, it never will. A text you should keep much in mind is I John iii, 20: “If our heart condemns us God is greater than our heart.” I sometimes pray “Lord give me no more and no less self-knowledge than I can at this moment make a good use of. Remember He is the artist and you are only the picture. You can’t see it. So quietly submit to be painted–i.e. keep on fulfilling all the obvious duties of your station, asking forgiveness for each failure and then leaving it alone. You are in the right way. Walk—don’t keep on looking at it.” —C.S. Lewis in a letter to a man struggling with “excessive selfness” (the man’s own words). Also called “morbid introspection” or perhaps even scrupulosity.

Rudy Giuliani’s career arc should put the fear of God into @nayibbukele.

Christians shouldn’t confuse a #Bitcoin’s price with its value for the same reason they shouldn’t confuse a #Bible’s price with its value.

Two men met a resurrected Jesus on a road. It didn’t even occur to them to kill him because they were too busy having their minds and hearts blown by the best #Bible study ever. They’re not the only ones. Luke 24:13-35 View quoted note →

Alright guys. I spent the last few days orange pilling folks at a #Bible college in Zambia. We spent two and a half hours tonight going over wallets and custody, and talking about other innovations that leverage Bitcoin including #Nostr, @Wavlake, @primal and more. I met one girl during the class named Lumba who is a musician. She has her music on Spotify but basically doesn’t make any money at this point. Right after the session ended, she created a Wavlake account, uploaded a song, and is off to the races. Check out her song and give her a warm #satstreaming welcome if you like what you hear!
