A guiding question that is always appropriate to ask: what impact does this have on the "least of these," the most vulnerable among us?
It's so good!
This is heartbreaking.
A plague a’ both houses!
I'm sorry to hear this news. His "Prophetic Imagination" is still a work I return to again and again.

Princeton University scholar Judith Weisenfeld has long studied the role of religion and race in America — but it wasn’t until recently that she discovered their historical and troubling intersection with psychiatry.

Thankful to @uscatholic.bsky.social for their review of my new book.
Blessed to have been well-loved and well-mothered. #HappyMothersDay
"This is the peace of the risen Christ, a disarming and humble and preserving peace. It comes from God. God, who loves all of us, without any limits or conditions." Beautiful words to hear from Pope Leo XIV.
Strong thoughts about who they believe will serve Christendom well, in such a time as this. Having a significant number of international students, there's lots of regional banter as well.
Nothing like being at a religious institution during a papal conclave. People have OPINIONS!
Deeply grateful for this excerpt from my new book, accompanied by an incredibly beautiful illustration from Diana Ejaita. @christiancentury.bsky.social
I've been enjoying reading your thoughts about the death of the pope and the possibilities of this new papacy. Can't wait to hear what you think once we have some white smoke.

Had a great conversation about my new book "The Wounds are the Witness" with A Matter of Faith Presby Podcast @pcusa.bsky.social. Check it out here: amatteroffaith.buzzsprout.com/1648090/epis...
There is a mental fatigue and physical exhaustion to all of this ~ gestures broadly at the dumpster fire of our world ~ that even a good night's sleep cannot help.
It was never *just* an Easter speech. On this #ResurrectionSunday, I'm deeply grateful for the elders who taught me; a childhood pastor who encouraged me; and the fullness of time which matured my faith. Risen, indeed!
The cruelty and chaos of it all is exactly the point.
We see you! Hold the floor a little longer.
Thank you @booker.senate.gov
I just asked my doctor if I can get the Shingles vaccine early. I want ALL the things.
Poem from Lucille Clifton which reads: "they ask me to remember, but they want me to remember their memories, and I keep on remembering mine."
Of course they are coming for the Blacksonian. We knew this would happen, but we also know there are some things you can't destroy.
I'm so glad to hear she's enjoying it!
