Feast your eyes on not just the goal of this World Cup, but one of the best goals in World Cup history. Consider the stakes, the moment, the technique. Are you kidding me?!? 🇨🇻

🗣️ ZLATAN: "My message to the American people is: If you didn’t believe before the game - this performance in the first half, start believing. Because if they can bring this performance in the upcoming games, this American team can do something big.
"Pretty much nothing separates us from human beings in earlier eras than how much less disease affects us. . . . If we moderns lived for one year with the sort of death rates our pre-industrial age ancestors perpetually lived with, we’d be in societal shock." - Dan Carlin

Isaac of Nineveh, one of the desert fathers, wrote:
“He who is aware of his sins is greater than one who can raise the dead.

— Thomas Lynch

In Psalm 23, the writer changes from addressing the Shepherd in terms of a "he-me" relationship ("he makes me lie down, he leads me," etc.) at the beginning of the Psalm to a "you-me" relationship in the middle of his darkest valley ("you are with me"). It turns out that the deeper you get into the valley the closer the Savior.
Got the chance to visit with @mrajswoboda about his new book The Gift of Thorns. I think this book will probably be one of the most important spiritual formation reads this year. Here's his book... buy it! tinyurl.com/2543zyv2
