1. We don’t have to be unanimous on all issues to be united on the most important issues. Unity doesn’t require unanimity. (Thread 1/7) #SBC19 #sbc2019

2. How about we commit to love people for the best things about them? And resist the urge to highlight every perceived flaw or minor error? Because the world is watching and laughing at the vitriol on display in our petty, intramural debates. (Thread 2/7) #sbc19 #sbc2019

3. For example - I don’t know @BethMooreLPM. As far as I know we’ve never met. But every church where I have served has benefitted from her resources and her teaching.

4. In her public ministry @BethMooreLPM is winsome, knowledgeable, passionate, & focused on the Scriptures. She is a loyal, confessional, & professional SBCer. I don’t understand why people want to post personal & snarky comments about her. (Thread 4/7) #sbc19 #sbc2019

5. I don’t believe that “clobber-tweeting” is helpful to our movement....the snark....the “win-the-internet-today” slam. It gets likes. It draws attention. But to what end? (Thread 5/7) #SBC19 #sbc2019

6. Of course we can disagree & we can do so publicly if necessary. But is it always really necessary? And if it is we should disagree kindly & respectfully, believing the best about one another especially when we are disagreeing within our own tribe. (Thread 6/7) #sbc19 #sbc2019

7. That’s the whole point of the BF&M2000 - it draws appropriate doctrinal & practical lines for congregational cooperation. If your church is within the confession but does things a little differently than mine...its kind of not my business. (Thread 7/7) #sbc10 #sbc2019
