Small Groups & Digital Discipleship (2/22/2026)
This week’s readings were focused on the importance of small groups, and how the structure, dynamics, and intimacy of such groups can help benefit Christians in growing and developing in Christlikeness as they relate to God, among themselves, and toward their neighbor with the all-important Great Commission command to obey and follow as the ultimate goals. What struck me the most while reading the Spiritual Formation (Chs. 19-22) by Early and Demsey are contained within

After the First Sentencing of Mr. Yoon, Seok Yeol: History Rolls Along
Ousted and imprisoned Yoon in better upbeat mood than judge Ji 'Life Sentence' was what presiding judge Ji, Gi-Yeon (지귀연) announced at the end of one hour mulling over the insurrection charge levied against former president Yoon, Seok Yeol.

부정선거 부인하는 이준석의 학력위조 의혹은 사실이었나?
부정선거를 전적으로 음로론으로 몰아부치는 이준석 에 관한 하바드 대 학사과정 (컴퓨터 과학 및 경제학과) 졸업의혹은 바다 건너편에 사는 무명의 네티즌 나에게도 지난 몇 년동안 적지않은 관심사였다: 의심의 여지도 없는 적어도 부정선거 동조범인데다가 평소에 말과 행동하는 것을 보면 하바드 재적당시에 충분히 논문/페이퍼 표절은 물론 학력위조도 불사할 한심한 인간으로 비췄기 때문이다. 물론, 하바드 대 측에서 의뢰결과 공식서신을 보내어서 졸업여부를 확실히 밝혔다 하며 화성동탄 경찰서에서 공식입장을 냈다 고 언론들이 보도를 하였지만, 이준석은 물론 한국의 경찰 및 언론의 말을 어떻게 우리가 믿고 신뢰할 수 있단 말인가? 콩으로 메주를 쑨다고 하여도 어떨땐 도저히 믿어지지 않는 것이 저들의 말일 정도로 그들의 신뢰성은 땅으로 이미 추락되어 있는 것이다. 결과적으로, 난 결코 그들의 입증되지 않은 (?) 말만 듣곤 내 궁금증이 눈꼽만큼도 가시지 않았다. 전문
