This is absolutely true. And if we weren’t supposed to do it, then God wouldn’t have rested β€” God is infinite! God has no need to rest! But God rested.

I am blessed to serve a congregation that offers sabbath respite, so I’ve got to model it for my own sake and theirs. Just…the matter of β€œwhen” can be a hulking psychological obstacle.

For my entire adult life, I was a political operative or business owner, meaning work happened on my time because it had to. At 36, I’ve got my first ever β€œsteady” job and am realizing the massive stress of figuring out HOW to take time off without leaving people high and dry.

Literally every video on this link got interrupted by an ad and re-started before any of the action could take place. This is the only news site I know that has solid reporting and an unusable website due to ads. It is almost impossible to navigate.

The awkwardness of realizing you are on mute and saying "sorry" to a zoom room that can't hear you on Zoom is the digital version of saying "you too" when the concession stand clerk says "enjoy your movie."

Virginia moves to forbid schools from teaching that Jan. 6 was peaceful In what appears to be a first in the country, legislation headed to the desk of Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) would prohibit public schools from teaching that the Jan. 6 riots at the U.S. Capit...

Virginia lawmakers have passed a first-of-its-kind bill that prohibits schools from teaching that the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection was a peaceful demonstration or that there was massive fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

In part because the dudes currently invoking the Central Component of my idea are chiefly the reason we’re in this mess.

Civically speaking, no community can reach its potential until it has walkable streets. Theologically speaking, the more we disembody ourselves by hurling down the road past one another, the further we retreat from grace and solidarity.

Dualism is one of the worst things Christians carried into the discourse and it ironically has become one of the most prominent staples of the Secular Age. If it is not this, it must be that. Like some messed up LSAT question...

It's okay to make fun of how a man looks or enjoy that he has to sit behind his cheating spouse for political purposes because it's a man and men don't have insecurities also men need to be more sensitive and vulnerable

I’m trying to imagine what would happen if a Democratic senator literally broke a military veteran’s forearm, which appears to be what happens here.

The Feds Targeted Charlotte. Now a Local Democrat Who Helped ICE Faces Voters. - Bolts North Carolina lawmaker Carla Cunningham voted to mandate compliance with ICE, and derided immigrants on the House floor. The Democrat faces an intense March primary.

JUST IN: North Carolina's Dem lawmaker Carla Cunningham gave the GOP the decisive vote to pass a law forcing police to comply with ICE. She said "all cultures are not equal."

She just lost reelection BIG in the Dem primary to a progressive pastor & activist, Rodney Sadler. 70% to 22%!
