Just in time for #EarthDay we planted some native foundation bushes. Common juniper, witch alder, and ninebark. Birds like the juniper berries (so do gin drinkers!), and early pollinators seek out the flowers of the latter two.

Seems like the Pope willed himself to live through Easter. Now he’s free to live with the Lord. Prayers for all who mourn his passing and for the people charged with choosing his successor.

This is one of the best Easter sermons I have ever heard/read. I have heard Ben deHart preach often enough to be able to summon up his passion, energy, and seriousness...plus a rock solid biblical faith. open.substack.com/pub/bendehar...

“While the fall of empires is usually considered a complex matter, with many factors involved, the collapse of the American empire into a comically evil dictatorship was only due to one: eggs were too expensive.”

A 🧵from the apologetics desk: George Packer says, Ross #Douthat’s “Believe” fails because one ever got argued into believing. #Faith is about falling in love, he writes, not making up your mind, and Packer has yet to be smitten by the Almighty. apple.news/A62muSd9cSUO...
