Taking suggestions.

forgot about this post on pronouncing our name…from when we where in the Netherlands and then on a Rhineland trip.

Wonder what our BeNeLuxians think about it. 😁

🎶 I hadn’t really payed attention to Jinjer. That was a mistake.

📑 Quote

"But we cannot find liberating joy in the cross by spiritualizing it, by taking away its message of justice in the midst of powerlessness, suffering, and death. The cross, as a locus of divine revelation, is not good news for the powerful, for those who are comfortable with the way things are, or for anyone whose understanding of religion is aligned with power. The religious authorities of Jesus’ time were threatened by his teachings about the reign of God’s justice and love, and the state authorities executed him as an insurrectionist—one who “perverts the nation” and “stirs up the people”" (James H. Cone, The Cross and the Lynching Tree)

One of my peers was sick with a high fever. I told him not to go to a work summit if he was sick. (There were others videoconferencing and he had one of his leaders attending anyway!)

He went, then he tested positive for COVID. Now one of my leaders that went is in the ER. 😷

📚 As someone who has taken copious notes and lessons from the podcast over the years, I’m excited to read this accumulated tome of wisdom.

“Both of these issues–life comes at us fast nullifying conscious decision-making, and our choices today were actually made yesterday–highlight the role of virtue in Christian spiritual formation. We can think of virtue as a holy habit, or what I call holy automaticity.” (experimentaltheology.blogspot.com, Practicing Jesus: Part 2, the Second Mistake of Spiritual Formation)

“In 1984, toward the end of a long career studying relations between landscape and culture, the historian and critic J.B. Jackson alighted on a new definition for his subject. Landscape, he argued, is “space deliberately created to speed up or slow down the process of nature.”” (Brett Milligan, Accelerated and Decelerated Landscapes)

“protecting the kids” by threatening to blow them up.

(This hits close to home. My spouse volunteers a great deal with Indy Reads. She’s helped people get their GED. She’s helped refugees learn English as an additional language. Etc.)
