The Litany

Another extremely occasional post, but as I've just corrected a chant setting of the Litany (from the 1662 BCP) for my own use, I though it worth sharing here in case it's useful to anyone else! ¶ The Litany 2025Download

But what was the misdemeanour of the original devotee of the bench? @mikewozniak.bsky.social

Brilliant, brilliant stuff from @mikewozniak.bsky.social and the @littlewander.bsky.social crowd in Cardiff tonight.

Really loving the LCD Soundsystem special on @bbcradio6musicbot.bsky.social this evening. I wouldn’t have named them as band who were especially important to me but so much of this music has really good memories!

Happy #StNicholas day!

Gregory of Nyssa on the beatitudes this morning. ‘nothing is being set forth in this beatitude that outstrips hope. We shall see God.’

Avner Gvaryahu (quoted in the piece) is the head of Breaking the Silence, an org of IDF vets that tell the truth about what happens under Occupation. Bibi HATES them. Tried to have them banned. They're a massive threat to Occupation, because they can truly change Israeli society in major ways.

Mr. Rogers and Child Liberation Theology Child liberation theology is not about abstract ideas but rather the simple yet radical act of treating children humanly and justly—something Fred Rogers took seriously.

The more I learned about child development and childrearing, and what best practices are in those fields, the more I realized: evangelicals are teaching the exact opposite of the best practices.
