Our help is in God.

Dear Elon, This week I: 1. Was as tranquil as a forest but on fire within 2. Was as swift as the coursing river 3. Had all the force of a great typhoon 4. Had all the strength of a raging fire 5. Was as Mysterious as the dark side of the moon #mulan

Yes I am the dad reading Bonhoeffer while his daughter is at cheerleading practice.

Very paschal lamb Such sacrificed for us Keep much feast

For the Lectionary people out there: Sunday's reading from Jeremiah 17 is the source of the civil rights song sung at that March on Washington (and many other places). "We shall not be moved, like a tree that's planted by the waters, we shall not be moved:" www.youtube.com/watch?v=duvo...

Maybe we should call up Trump's new office that stops government attacks on Christians

Wait, the tune for Fly Eagles Fly ISN'T the same as Shine Jesus Shine? Because it scans pretty well.

FOR SALE: three farm fresh eggs, straight out of the coop. Makes omelets, benedicts, baked goods, whatever you need. No lowball offers! I know what I have.

This, of course, will defend only Trump-supporting Christians. An Episcopalian bishop got threatened with deportation and Lutheran Social Services got attacked as money launderers, all by government officials, all in the past two weeks. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Pleading with my HP OfficeJet to pwease pwease scan this document today 🥺👉🏽👈🏽

Christian Trump supporters may not see his proposed Gaza plan as genocide. Maybe they can see that it necessarily dismantles Gaza's Christian community which dates back to ancient times. It will definitely include the demolition of its 3 beautiful church buildings. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Did you participate in the #50501movement event in NH today? Don't just show up for one event: get connected to one of the many groups to take sustained action together. Check out Saturday's Justice Fair in Concord--see the flyer below--where you can get connected! #nhpolitics

Unfortunately, the Pope did see his shadow this morning, forecasting six more weeks of Lent.

Idk sounds like another woke attack on Hegseth

Episcopal Migration Ministries shouldn't have to suffer like this. I went to DC in 2019 to meet with them and tell our Senators in DC to raise refugee caps. They are a professional, class act all the way and this outcome is devastating on many levels.

Today I started reading Galatians and Paul sounds like he could be addressing #ChristianNationalism in speaking to those who abandon the Gospel for something counterfeit:

One of the co-sponsors of the House bill condemning Budde's sermon, listed below, is Rep. Beth Van Duyne, an Episcopalian. I reached out to the Rt. Rev. C Andrew Doyle of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas, which appears to be her diocese. He told me he was concerned about govt "policing our sermons."

20!

Congressional condemnation of a Christian sermon about mercy is a dangerous attack on all our Constitutional freedoms of speech and religion. This is step in the direction of the "Aryan paragraph" that Bonhoeffer and the Confessing Church resisted. We must be ready.

So, where is that plane full of migrants going to go now? Is this how we start to get migrant prison camps? www.reuters.com/world/americ...

The week got busy so I never unpacked these leftover sodas from the MLK event. The cold weather has now exploded them all over my car. Science!

It was worse than freezing weather but we showed up anyway to keep the faith! www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...

After a week of devastating Executive Orders, I'm thinking a lot about the white moderates/centrists who told me to my face that Project 2025 isn't a real thing and not to worry about it. It is a real thing and we all understood the danger accurately. www.project2025.org/playbook/

We are one day into the Trump administration and I have a local Nazi on Twitter saying that I should be stripped of my citizenship. Reporting it to Twitter got no reaction. This is fine.

Today NH allies are bringing the work to defend birthright citizenship and the Constitution:

The White House webpage for the Constitution returns a 404 error. I can't handle this much metaphor. www.whitehouse.gov/about-the-wh...

Coming home from the MLK Celebration to check in on all the news I missed today

Digging out from the snowstorm so I can get to an MLK celebration on Trump's inauguration has big Empire Strikes Back energy

"To summarize, here are some areas that are considered politically damaging to the network and should be avoided: - Excessive game playing - Excessive ill-conceived use - Hateful, harassing, or other antisocial behavior - Intentional damage or interference... - Publicly accessible obscene files."

Courtney and I made Black Honey Manhattans: 2.5 oz Bourbon, infused with butter and honey (from our bees) 1 oz Amaro Averna (strong orange and botanical taste) 3 shakes of chocolate bitters Shake, strain, done.

Jesus did this, the first of his signs, in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him. (John 2:11)
