Jesus is strong, good, kind, and trustworthy. Francophile. Fan of Weird Al, the U.S. Constitution, and dolce far niente. "Be curious, not judgmental." Ex-GOP, politically homeless. Pastor, but not the angry, faux-macho kind.

Oh, to have the courage and faith of Michaiah when all of Ahab's prophets are telling him to offer pleasing flattery and the king himself threatens his life.
Lord, may your preachers not be court prophets to an unholy power. Regardless of the cost, may I be true to you and your kingdom.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Nice gesture, but kind of a miss. Should've brought a frozen Giordanos and offered to heat it up for him. Also, Christmas is coming - no Frango mints?

Got to marry an older church couple today. Both had been widowed and met through GriefShare. Turns out they also like Elvis.
Staff came together to create a wedding chapel. The bride entered to "I Can't Help Falling in Love with You." The rest of the ceremony was more serious. 🙂

"Criminals posing as US immigration officers have carried out robberies, kidnappings, and sexual assaults in several states"
Apparently these crimes are to be distinguished from the illegal things the masked secret police are doing with government sanction.

When the work of shepherding leads us to pride, judgment, superiority, or deception, we have forgotten that we are a lamb. A shepherd who is not first a lamb is a dangerous shepherd and has ceased to follow the Good Shepherd.

I'm not saying people who have committed immigration offenses (overstaying visas, entering illegally) should never be taken into custody. I'm saying it should be done without terrorizing the community, and prioritize people who actually pose a threat to the community.

Why did we install a government that hate its citizens?
People voted supreme executive power to some of the most ignorant, corrupt misanthropes in our nation's history. And most people just keep shrugging their shoulders. It will never make sense.

🔥Folks, this is not a drill. They even admit they're going to wait until after the 2026 mid-terms to roll out their "alternatives" to Constitutional law. For some time, we have been in a constitutional crisis, and the people behind want to expand it and make sure they stay in power forever.🔥
