Goodnight all. Let us not submit to this corrupt, incompetent, lying and murderous administration. Public courage is contagious. We pray for faith over fear, kindness over brutality, love over hate, and truth over lies. “God will not be mocked.” The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight all. I took a baptismal vow to resist evil. And so I do. There is nothing Christian about Christian Nationalism. Donald Trump just spent nearly two hours lying. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight all. I don't look away from the evil that is the Trump administration, but I don't let my revulsion overtake my mental health. He and his enablers will not prevail. “God will not be mocked; as ye sow, so shall ye reap.” The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

I’m proud of the US Women’s Olympic Team for taking a pass on attending the SOTU address. They know. We all know about Trump’s literal and metaphorical assault against women. Once again, the men don’t get it. Sad.

Shrimp Pad Thai This Pad Thai is relatively easy stir-fry to make, but it requires a bit of time for chopping and prep. Ingredients   12 oz wide rice st...

I made this last night. Pretty tasty!

Goodnight all. You know I'm a praying guy. So, tonight I pray for peace, for decency and democracy and the rule of law. I pray for faith over fear, compassion over hatred, and truth over lies. And remember, the Big Lie is a really big lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Thanks.

How About That, Pam........

Goodnight all. My family & church try hard to not be prejudiced towards those not like us. We believe that God’s beloved community is welcoming and inclusive. We pray for faith over fear, love over hate, and truth over lies. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

“You Won’t Despise a Broken Heart” A Hymn for Lent “You won’t despise a broken heart” C.M You won’t despise a broken heart or spirits made contrite. You lift the downcast, stay the proud, and ancient wrongs make right. The humble look to you for st…

Goodnight all. I confessed some of my sins and my pastor imposed ashes on my forehead. He told me I came from dust, and would return to dust, but Christ would be with me in death and beyond death. I’m OK with that. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight all. I’m a pastor. Jesus said, “Love your enemies!” He never said we wouldn’t have them. So, your Trumper family members, co-workers, and former friends, we have to love them. But we don’t have to accept their deplorable politics. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight. When I was caught in a lie as a child, I was corrected, felt remorse. Same for my children & grandchildren. This is how it works in a healthy family. I’m ashamed of the lying by our government. There is no apology, no remorse; no shame. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you & keep you

Goodnight all. The DHS doesn’t make me feel safe; how about you? It was created after 9/11 to protect us from terrorists. Now the terrorists are our own government. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight all. If you’re not outraged by this lawless, corrupt and murderous administration, you’re not paying attention. The Big Lie is a lie. We must do better. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight all. How long have I’ve been praying for decency and democracy? For many years. So far, it hasn’t worked. But I believe it will. The truth will out. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight. Take a deep breath, pray for decency, kindness & democracy. Hold those you love close. This dystopian brutality will end. Let us make it so. In the meantime, take care of yourself. Tell the truth, call out the lies. Witness what you see with your own eyes. The Lord bless you & keep you!

Goodnight! Someday we will be ashamed that our government killed innocents in the streets and put children in cages. Ashamed of protecting powerful men who abused children. Ashamed of the open racism & misogyny. Our national shame can't happen soon enough for me. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight all. I suffered a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) 26 years ago and I still scuffle from it. So, it is hard for me to watch these young gladiators put their future at risk for fame & money. And the hyper-nationalism bothers me. Still, I always watch it. The Lord bless you & keep you!

Goodnight all. My family and I are serious about our Christian faith. My daughter is a pastor. and a good one. I believe that you can't be a Christian & support Trump with his cruelty, corruption, lying, racism, misogyny & malignant narcissism. Pick one: Christ or Don. The Lord bless you & keep you

Goodnight. In my long pastoral ministry one of my challenges was how to respond to congregants I loved who held views I considered despicable. Now, roughly one third of our neighbors still support Trump. To love these neighbors is a moral challenge for our country. The Lord bless you & keep you!

Goodnight all. There are so many things I'd rather be doing; singing, writing, cooking, snowshoeing, than protesting the depredations of this evil administration. But here we are. The Big Lie is a big lie. Public courage is contagious. The Lord bless you & keep you!

Goodnight all. Do not accept the unacceptable! This corrupt, lying, murderous administration is destroying our democracy. They are terrorizing our citizens. They are breaking our country. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Our justice system is now controlled by the corrupt administration. They won't wake up until we vote them out.

Goodnight all. We will not accept the behavior of this lawless and murderous administration. Prayers for courage. Public courage is contagious. Prayers for basic decency. Did they not learn the Golden Rule? The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Not belated. I have an hour or so left! Thanks.

I once was a very active skier, but my balance left me, and now I snowshoe.

Goodnight all. Thanks for the birthday greetings. I had a lovely birthday. My heart is full of gratitude for the people God has given me to love & be loved by. I share a birthday with the late great Langston Hughes. As I turn in I share with you this poem of his. The Lord bless you & keep you!

Goodnight all. I went snowshoeing again today. It was cold and clear and the woods were beautiful. And now I end my day with prayer for decency, democracy and the rule of law. And kindness. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

Goodnight all. What’s the “secret sauce” that all Americans agree on? Freedom. We fought for freedom against a King, and we reject autocracy. We don’t like a dictator. Resist; public courage is contagious. The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!
