1/ "The trendy word for taking apart the idea is 'deconstruction'. The older word for taking apart the idea is 'philosophy'"

~Dr. @DavidDark, June 2023

In June 2023, Dr Dark and Will Maddoxx talked & presented regarding Will's work "Iconoclasm". instagram.com/tv/CtnGgaOKy_6/ 2/ You can view Will's work "Icoconoclasm" here: willmaddoxx.com/iconoclasm

1/ At Saturday evening's 50th anniversary celebration @willowcreekcc, senior pastor Shawn Williams spoke for over 9 minutes about "failure". In his first 140 words, we see minimisation, bolstering, reverse victimisation, defeasibility, differentiation.

2/ I learned to do this type of textual analysis from Dr @jdahlmd, who has a thread here about it: x.com/jdahlmd/status…, and also from Dr. @wademullen whose thesis is here: bit.ly/MullenPHD and Dr. @MelFisher13, whos thesis is here: bit.ly/FisherPHD

1/ In his 2013 book "Fight", gigapastor Craig Groeschel revealed himself a bit.

Have you had a look at this book, @sheilagregoire?

Number of times Groeschel refers to women as "girls" or "chicks": 12

A thread with quotes from the book 2/ "Think about it this way. There are two kinds of movies: chick flicks and, well, everything else. Do chick flicks inspire men? Do they make them want to be stronger, braver, better men?"

~Craig Groeschel, "Fight", 2013

1/ A thread of quotes from Dr. @danallender's 1990 book "The Wounded Heart"--quotes which could be understood to be suggesting that victims of sexual abuse are blameworthy &/or need to forgive &/or remain in relationship with their perpetrators &/or that "secular" help is bad. 2/ "living in a fallen world sometimes exposes peple to experiences no bearer of God's image was ever meant to endure and that our reactions to those experiences are deeply stained with our own fallenness."

~Larry Crabb, "Foreword", in D. Allender, "The Wounded Heart"
