Every single day of my childhood, my parents asked the same question at dinner. Not “What did you learn?” but “Who did you serve?”
Wonderful reflections from Ben Sasse’s daughter.

What a beautiful reflection by Alex Sasse, @BenSasse's eldest daughter. Full of deep wisdom. Can't imagine a better use of 7 minutes. Link below.

“What would you say to a young Christian who is nervous about the future?”
I love @TimKellerNYC’s answer. I think about it every Easter.

Faith in God brought Andrew Huberman the deepest peace of his life—at 50, after decades of pushing it away.
In this raw 3:42 clip, the neuroscientist opens up:
“I kept resisting the voice in my head that said there’s a God and I’m going to pray.
It felt incompatible with being a scientist.
But recently… I stopped fighting to control everything.
For the first time in my entire life, I’ve experienced sustained, real deep peace.
Everything’s okay. Everything is as it should be.”
He calls it 100% because he gave over to the notion of a higher power—reading the Bible, prayer, faith-based practices.
Not just belief, but active practice.
Even if it all turns out to be neurobiology, he’s good with it.
In the meantime, he’s praying—and it’s transformed his life.
No regrets about science or fitness or family.
The one thing he wishes he’d done earlier? Stop resisting God.
Powerful, vulnerable...
Worth 3 minutes of your time.

The odds of someone hitting two grand slams in the same inning is basically 1 in 75869695847. In ‘99 Fernando Tatis Sr. did it. He’s the only one in baseball history to ever accomplish this feat.

St. Valentine was imprisoned beheaded & buried on 14 Feb 269 AD for helping persecuted Christians & marrying Christian couples! While in prison he prayed for his jailer’s daughter & her blindness was healed. On the day of his execution he left her a note signed, ‘Your Valentine.’

Major life decisions shouldn’t be based on short-term emotions. They should be guided by long-term values.
Feelings are better mirrors than maps. They reflect our present state, but they don't come with future directions.
Don't let today's mood drive who you become tomorrow.

If you claim to follow Jesus but are not helping anyone else follow Jesus, I’m not sure what you mean by following Jesus.
