After stepping away for a brief respite, I am back to writing on Substack. I’ve redone my site and am looking forward to beginning again. See link below.

Hey friends, I deleted my old Substack due to some trolls who ran wild with it. It was an opportunity to rethink, re-design, and start over. So if you’d like to read my stuff still, you can here: substack.com/@theluminous...

For the first time in at least 2 years, the scale started with the number “1” today!

I thought Substack was better than Twitter, and for the most part it is. However, even over there they have fundamentalists who come out in droves when they find something they can disagree with. Thanks Bluesky for so far not having tons of jerks.

I received the edits back early this morning! Today I will be spending time re-reading this book and getting it ready for publication! It’s taken some time, but soon it’ll be out in the world 😄

First attempt at a traditional #rosary. I think it turned out nicely!

Since first learning about the Feast of Saint Stephen it has fascinated me. From celebrating the Prince of Peace to killing those who actually follow Him. See #Substack article below.

Our worship gatherings tonight need not be new or different. Tell the story. Pray the prayers. Sing the songs. Embrace what has been handed done from generation to generation.

A book review and some thoughts on Bishop Barron’s “Heaven in Stone and Glass.” While not every church building needs to be a gothic cathedral, I do believe we need to be intentional about our theology of architecture and space. What are our spaces communicating? open.substack.com/pub/fromyour...
