I don’t think most Christians read the Bible’s passages on antichrist (which aren’t even in Revelation). #ADifferentJesus

Long been time to follow the lead & example of Christians who did not bow to empire, even functioning (thriving!) underground. They know the State can use religion yet still not know Jesus

Amen!
A busy life is not a symbol of status. It's a symptom of trying to do too much for too many people.

A full calendar brings a surplus of stress and a shortage of energy. Reflecting and relaxing should be top priorities.

Unscheduled time isn't wasted. It's invested in well-being.

Thank you, librarian!
I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok?

Signed, a librarian.

This engaging thread gets it right
Okay, so here's the thing.
