This week we have <a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/s\/losing-my-religion\/jesus-mary-and-joe-jonas-605c763ce682?platform=hootsuite\">Jesus, Mary, and Joe Jonas<\/a> (Jonathan Parks-Ramage, Medi\u00adum): \u201cHow, in famous\u00adly lib\u00ader\u00adal Hol\u00adly\u00adwood and among sta\u00adtis\u00adti\u00adcal\u00adly pro\u00adgres\u00adsive mil\u00adlen\u00adni\u00adals, had good old-fashioned evan\u00adge\u00adlism [sic] gained pop\u00adu\u00adlar\u00adi\u00adty? In this con\u00adtext, a church like Real\u00adi\u00adty L.A. seemed like some\u00adthing that could nev\u00ader work. But that evening, as I reflect\u00aded on the trou\u00adbled actress and the psy\u00adchic bru\u00adtal\u00adi\u00adties inflict\u00aded by the enter\u00adtain\u00adment indus\u00adtry, it occurred to me that I had under\u00ades\u00adti\u00admat\u00aded Hollywood\u2019s biggest prod\u00aduct: lost souls.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/archives\/2019\/03\/01\/things-glen-found-interesting-volume-192\">First shared in vol\u00adume 192<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Why Do You Send This Email?<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the time of King David, the tribe of Issachar pro\u00adduced shrewd war\u00adriors \u201cwho under\u00adstood the times and knew what Israel should do\u201d (1 Chron 12:32). In a sim\u00adi\u00adlar way, we need to become wise peo\u00adple whose faith inter\u00adacts with the world. I pray this email gives you greater insight, so that you may con\u00adtin\u00adue the tra\u00addi\u00adtion of Issachar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Disclaimer<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chi Alpha is not a par\u00adti\u00adsan orga\u00adni\u00adza\u00adtion. To para\u00adphrase anoth\u00ader min\u00adis\u00adter: we are not about the donkey\u2019s agen\u00adda and we are not about the elephant\u2019s agen\u00adda \u2014 we are about the Lamb\u2019s agen\u00adda. Hav\u00ading said that, I read wide\u00adly (in part because I believe we should aspire to pass <a href=\"http:\/\/econlog.econlib.org\/archives\/2011\/06\/the_ideological.html\">the ide\u00ado\u00adlog\u00adi\u00adcal Tur\u00ading test<\/a> and in part because I do not believe I can fair\u00adly say \u201cI agree\u201d or \u201cI dis\u00adagree\u201d until I can say \u201cI under\u00adstand\u201d) and may at times share arti\u00adcles that have a strong par\u00adti\u00adsan bias sim\u00adply because I find the arti\u00adcle stim\u00adu\u00adlat\u00ading. The upshot: you should not assume I agree with every\u00adthing an author says in an arti\u00adcle I men\u00adtion, much less things the author has said in oth\u00ader arti\u00adcles (although if I strong\u00adly dis\u00adagree with some\u00adthing in the arti\u00adcle I\u2019ll usu\u00adal\u00adly men\u00adtion it). And to the extent you can dis\u00adcern my opin\u00adions, please under\u00adstand that they are my own and not nec\u00ades\u00adsar\u00adi\u00adly those of Chi Alpha or any oth\u00ader orga\u00adni\u00adza\u00adtion I may be per\u00adceived to rep\u00adre\u00adsent.\n\nAlso, remem\u00adber that I\u2019m not report\u00ading news \u2014 I\u2019m giv\u00ading you a selec\u00adtion of things I found inter\u00adest\u00ading. There\u2019s a lot hap\u00adpen\u00ading in the world that\u2019s not mak\u00ading an appear\u00adance here because I haven\u2019t found stim\u00adu\u00adlat\u00ading arti\u00adcles writ\u00adten about it.\n\nIf this was for\u00adward\u00aded to you and you want to receive future emails, sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/\">here<\/a>.
