Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

So profound and timely. Thank you. I have a dear friend in #drc and I wept yesterday reading Psalm 10 as I was praying over her words of terror and fear and grief. So grateful that God gives such raw and powerful voice to our cries against injustice, and our need for Him, through these psalms.

Thank goodness for the American Medical Association. Here is their YouTube page. Please share far and wide. Right now bird flu is spreading throughout our country and most people have no clue. Please stay updated and bookmark this page for your health and well-being.

God of Good Lies Who is God on this Inauguration Day? And what does god have to do with me?

This post by my dear friend @sharifawrites.bsky.social is absolutely everything I needed to read today.

Amen and amen.

I am committed to praying for our leaders this year.

I will pray that they find & live in light, and that—should they choose darkness instead—they (instead of the people they’re charged with leading) reap the fullness of what they sow until they choose to sow different seed.

Tracking the Taliban's (Mis)Treatment of Women When Afghan women step out of their homes, everywhere they look they see a range of Taliban restrictions affecting all aspects of society and their lives — from education and employment to public serv...

There has been so much to grieve this year. This morning, my heart is feeling particularly burdened thinking about women and girls in Afghanistan whose very existence is treated like a crime. Mercy, Lord.

Amnesty International Investigation Concludes Israel Is Committing Genocide “We will look back and say, ‘Why did we not do more earlier?” Amnesty's director tells Zeteo.

Everyone should be sharing this story about the Amnesty International report because yes many of us have long acknowledged that it’s a genocide but there are still people who need the validation of a report from an org like Amnesty to believe it’s true zeteo.com/p/amnesty-co...

I love this! Thank you for sharing.

It's the little things these days. Today, it's podcasts: the way 'Ridiculous Crime' never fails to leave me shaking my head in utter (often very amused) disbelief, and how much absolutely cool stuff I learn listening to 'Radiolab for Kids' - alone or with my kids.

This is such an important read...

I hear that! Jesus truly be with us.

Not gonna lie... Advent season has found me on my knees where I've been praying, "O come, O come, Emmanuel..." for at least a couple of months. Thankful for an encouraging word about hope in the waiting.
