Marriage is interesting because there's no one you love more, spending more time with, understand better... And also what the hell are they talking about?! We didn't just agree on a timeline we wrote it down how did we still have different expectations?!

You are not responsible for things you didn't do. Slavery. Jim Crow. You shouldn't be held accountable for any of that from the past! ... ... Unless you defend and downplay those things now and actively promote erasing the history of people who have been the victims of extraordinary violence.

2008ish, Robert Bricker teaching drawing class at McGuffey Art Center in Cville and some teenage boys were standing on the hill nearby so that they could peer in through the window and gawk at the nude model. Bricker stuck his head out the window and yelled, "Take an art class. Improve yourself!"

Anglicans have a plurality of views on pretty much everything, so our theologians always start with scripture and tend to argue that their position is the more conservative or Orthodox of the options. (Not the process theologians, the stone cold weirdos, he says lovingly)

Look buddy we can do this the easy way or the hard way... And if you know the easy way will you please tell me? I think I'd probably like it.

Hey Episcopalians and other liturgically minded denominations and especially anyone who marks the traditional Church seasons... I get why you might give up social media during parts of the year in order to Center yourself. Do you know who's not doing that?! All the other kinds of Christians!!

The assumption that our politics is so "divided" that if I'm criticizing an administration you voted for I must be for the "other side" is crazy. I was born in this country. I'm a g*ddamn American. I ought to criticize every elected and appointed official in this country. Especially my guys!

It's not actually all that uncommon to have a valid criticism and a ridiculous unworkable solution to the problem you have correctly perceived. It is okay to listen to people who are offering bad ideas because sometimes underneath there's actually a real problem that needs addressing.

A Canon for Latin Ministries told me his siblings all used different words. He said Latinx, his sister said Hispanic, his brother said Mexican. So if white people like me are arguing about this we sound ridiculous. Just ask how to identify someone if you need that information for any reason.

There’s a real fruits-of-the-Spirit issue with bile, hatred, vengeance, and deciding who deserves poverty, punishment, or death. If your Christianity isn’t growing love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—you haven't really got it yet.

What if vampires were real but instead of literally drinking blood they just lived as wealthy recluse elites with weird habits and no sense of the value of human life and who, in fact, did suck the life out of everyone and everything and we called them... Billionaires? I mean what if, right?

Beauty causes us to long for more beauty and ultimately the source of all beauty, God. - Rev Dr Ruthanna Hooke

Rixey, one of the great loves of my life and among my deepest joys is one year old today.

Very carefully avoided saying PragerU because I think this platform is pretty censor-y www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8AB6Yu2/

How do I know if I really experienced God? Well, encounters with God always turn us away from what we were doing, what we thought we cared about, and toward something infinitely larger and more loving. If you think God is asking you to stay just as you are... That's not God.

Maybe instead of arguing about who is and isn't Christian according to your tradition's definitions and requirements we could just all get on the same page that anyone expressing their religious freedom (where it doesn't infringe on the rights of others) should be safe from random acts of violence.

If you go on vacation you just record about Jonah before you leave www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8ScLfMY/

You do not need to be at fault for something to be your responsibility.

Mac likes to run into the bushes while I buckle Rixey in when I pick them up from daycare and today... One of the rival dads explained how that was unsafe and he wouldn't let his child behave like that.

Some of my colleagues don't want to use AI but like how else can I get through this board meeting?

Loving your neighbor as yourself means loving yourself! Otherwise it's not a very good commandment. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8Sh7grw/
