>For it is wonderful how much we are confirmed in our belief, when we more attentively consider how admirably the system of divine wisdom contained in it is arranged—how perfectly free the doctrine is from every thing that savors of earth—how beautifully it harmonizes in all its parts—and how rich it is in all the other qualities which give an air of majesty to composition. - Calvin's Institutes, 1.8.1 Welcome to In the Word Wednesdays! Here at !reformed@lemmy.ml, we cherish the richness, the beauty, the majesty, and - most importantly - the authority of the the Bible. Often times, though, we can get caught up by the distractions of this world and neglect this glorious fountain of truth we have been given. So here on In the Word Wednesday we very simply want to encourage everybody to take a moment to share from, and discuss, scripture! What have you been reading lately? What have you been studying in small group? What has your pastor been preaching on? Is there anything that has surprised you? Confused you? Encouraged you? Let's hear it! It doesn't have to be anything deep or theological - although deep theological discussions focusing on scripture are always welcome - it can be something as simple as a single verse that gave you comfort this morning during your quiet time. (~~As~~ ITWW is *no longer* a new concept, *but* we are more than welcome to receive ideas for how to grow the concept and foster an increased discussion of scripture. If you have any ideas for ITWW, please feel free to send the mods a message via mod mail.)

They're pretty basic right now. Remove comments/posts. Ban users from the community. And edit the appearance / sidebar of the community.

- Determine the focus and point of the community. Write the description according to that so users know what to post.
- Set up rules that go along with the focus. If your community is about Pikachu and someone posts cat pictures, that's something that should probably be removed.
- Post some content but not too much. Don't want to make this your personal blog. You want others to participate.
- Advertise it appropriately. Post to new communities. When there is another post and comments discussing your topic, mention that you have a community dedicated to it.
Getting a new community up and running is actually pretty difficult. Many of mine on reddit failed. But a few of them took off.

I buy mostly from bandcamp and Amazon.
I use Plex to host my music. It's not super difficult to set up. And Plexamp is a pretty good player.
Plex also has the option for you to subscribe to Tidal, which I do. And the ability to stream my own music that's not available anywhere on any stream plus almost everything out there that Spotify has is the best combo.
Jellyfin is another server like Plex, but I haven't ever set it up so I don't know how involved it is.

Yes but can you create communities in other instances?

Yes, very good point there.

Well there is the Chevy Bolt. Which is a very good deal on a pretty good range EV. But yeah... It's still a Chevy

I had the same thought. They'd like to become leader but they've moved way too slow. They're a good 10 years behind.
But they're a big company. Perhaps they can turn things around.

It was a few days ago. But it looks like it's stuck now when I try to create new ones. Probably too much traffic at the moment.

Baptists were always confessional. Only more recently has that been rejected by some baptist circles.
It's Monday. We usually talk about missions. So tell me about your church and what it's doing for missions. Local and overseas.
