Incredibly funny to watch the right wing going Oh so just because I love money and hate poor people I'm a bad Christian according to "the pope"???

It’s a weird feeling to outlive colleges that at some point have turned me down for a job

I need this. Don't take this from me.

I need a 2 part video series, where Sadiq Khan visits NYC, and he and Zohran Mamdani take the subway to Mets-Willets to watch a Mets game, and talk about hopeful things.

Then in part 2, Zohran visits London. They take the Tube to watch Arsenal play Liverpool.

I know many of the wonderful people at Firehouse. They constantly look for ways to make this world a better place for everyone.

Can these stones live? — Christian Citizen Faithful Palestinian Christians too often feel abandoned, or worse, betrayed by Western Christians. They want to be seen by their Christian family, but they feel forgotten.

@thegrizzlylabs.com Love GeniusScan! Unfortunately since a recent update it’s no longer including the file when I try to export to Upnote. All other services (like AppleNotes, Dropbox) all work. But not Upnote. Any thoughts?

I think I'll take a minute and offer thanks to the NFL for helping me better understand the phrase "Bread and Circuses." I'm not proud of it, but I understand it.

This is wonderful news!

A prism of song — Christian Citizen The Psalms are an important theological encounter with Israel’s traditions, but they also represent an intentional artistic encounter with those traditions. They have grandeur, and it is good for the ...

An Invitation to Create Climate Hope Together Introductory Series — Post #1

A member of my congregation created a substack to talk about the importance of climate stewardship as a Christian

www.climatehopetogether.com/p/an-invitat...

It was a powerful Pentecost Witness at the Capitol. Faith leaders + communities gathered in song, prayer, & truth-telling. The work isn’t done—but when people of faith unite, hope rises. Let us continue demanding a moral budget for our nation ✊🏽🙏🏽

Somebody on Mastodon just pointed out that, unlike with tarrifs, you're not seeing a bunch of "This isn't what i voted for" regrets coming from Trump voters about what's going on in L.A.

Take with that what you will.

Robert Wallace's Take on Psalms: A Prism of Song

Great conversation about my book with Ashley on the “Black Sheep Christian” podcast #Christianity #Bible #BibleStudy #OldTestament

It was 2008 before I learned of the existence of Palestinian Christians in more than an abstract way. I had my PhD. I had been teaching for 10 years, and I had spent over 5 months in country in Israel over 4 different trips. I'm still embarrassed it took me that long. Yesterday was Israeli Independence Day. Today, Palestinians remember the same event as "Nakba" or "catastrophe." Seventy-seven years ago 750,000 people out of a population of 1.9 million were displaced. Entire villages of Christians, Muslims, and various other faiths were seized. I won't pretend to be smart enough to know what a just solution is to conflict that has gone on for well over a century. But I know that hate is never right or God's will, that violence is an abdication of Christ's will for us, and that every human being bears the divine image and is worthy of life and dignity because of that. Last night at Wednesday Night Bible Study, we looked at Matthew 25—a chilling reminder that the nations which do not act out of mercy and compassion for the vulnerable will find judgment. God's blessing is not found in strength or violence, but empathy add provision. I suppose all I want to say is. My heart breaks. My heart breaks for all Israelis. My heart breaks for all Palestinians. And in particular, my heart breaks for Palestinian Christians—those keepers of the faith still, for over 2000 years, part of my family of faith—as they fear more displacement and ongoing genocide. It does not have to be this way. But it will be, until people of good conscious stand up and say, "No more, and never again."

My thoughts on the Nakba

Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume?

Me, a biblical scholar: Parablepsis

If Congress valued the Constitution, it would impeach Trump for bribery.

The Constitution bans US officials—explicitly including POTUS—from accepting things of value from foreign govts. Ben Franklin famously gave up a gift from France as ambassador.

US institutions now see blatant bribery as ok.
