One highlight from #ETS2021 was this: I got the chance to meet a significant theological hero of mine, @JohnPiper. It was a brief conversation on an escalator, and I’m sure one he’s had countless times, but he was gracious and gave me his full attention for a minute. 
Me: “I’ve thought a lot about what I would say if I ever had the chance to meet you and I’m coming up empty. All I can say is that I’m grateful. The Lord has used your ministry in my life in more ways I will ever be able to express. Thank you.” All true but woefully insufficient.
Also @RonniKurtz is a champ for snagging the photo for me. Didn’t ask him to, but I think he knew how much it meant to me haha
10 reflections on the Evangelical Theological Society annual meeting (#ETS2021) that just concluded in Fort Worth:
1/10: Many of our leading evangelical scholars are aging. The next generation must be ready to take the torch. This readiness must mean sharp minds, soft hearts, proven integrity, a saturation with Scripture and theology, and the love and courage to stand.
2/10: There are some terrible mis-uses of Scripture under the guise of scholarship. Credentials, publications, expertise, and name-recognition mean nothing if you twist the text. Watch your own doctrine carefully, and don't believe everything you hear.
