A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back.
Proverbs 29:11 ESV
"Don't hold it in" is usually bad advice. Hold your anger and frustration in when it threatens to break loose, and then find ways to alleviate the problem that caused it. Fools let their emotions out like children without regard to the consequences.
Everyone probably knows a pastor or ministry leader, and everyone knows a successful business owner. It’s likely that everyone has met a government consultant at some point. Those who meet Kevin Jessip have met all of those in one person – and they’ve also met a former gang member! Kevin comes from a long line of pastors, so it’s no surprise that he had a divine call on his life from birth. In this five part interview, we’ll hear how he was walked out that calling, starting with how redemption found him when he was a troubled youth.
Kevin’s story is one of redemption, reconciliation, and restoration. That’s the topic Barry and David address in their midrash called Reconciliation or Restoration, and what the Aleph Tav Band and Mason Clover sing about in their musical offerings.

Just before I started my current walk, I saw a book in a local Christian bookstore that caught my eye: not a fan. by Kyle Idelman.
I will say, I never read the book. I did buy it and every time I saw it on my shelf, I thought to myself: I should read that.
It appealed to me because I was wondering: am I just a fan? Am I just a Christian because that was my “home team”? Am I truly following or do I just sit on the sidelines and root for Christian things? Am I a fan or am I a participant/player?
Before I ever read the book, the Father put me on this walk and showed me where I was failing. Maybe if I read it when I got it, He would have put me here sooner. IDK. But I do know, even with my volunteerism at my church and my tendencies to “defend the faith” (read argue) with others, I wasn’t a participant.
As of this writing, there are several sport type things going on. Many pastors will have sermons about how you’ll scream until you are blue in the face for your team, “but will you do that for God?”
I’m not worried about that. I want you to look at yourself and ask: why am I on this walk? Is it because everyone else is doing it? Because that is what I was taught growing up? Because of my social circle? Or because God is truly your first priority and you are doing everything for Him?
Mark 12:32-34 The scribe said to him, “Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he, and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from God’s Kingdom.” No one dared ask him any question after that.

Behold, these, on Balaam's advice, caused the people of Israel to act treacherously against YHWH in the incident of Peor, and so the plague came among the congregation of YHWH.
#numbers 31:16
The Doctrine of Balaam is the luring of God's people into idolatry and other pagan practices, primarily through hedonism, the pursuit of pleasure. There's nothing inherently wrong with the pursuit of pleasure (or happiness, if you prefer), but passions are easy to manipulate into weaknesses and blind spots.
