Seen on FB: Local hospitals near me posted pictures of the first babies of 2026 with their parents. In the two instances I saw of Latino or Muslim families, the one inevitable racist commenter was immediately pounded on by at least 100 other people.

The kind of place where, if you ask them about gay people getting married or serving in leadership, they invite you to “get coffee and talk”
It is very counter-intuitive to people, I think, that the churches that give the most casual vibes are often dogmatically/socially rigid and the churches that are often very outwardly traditional are more progressive. Never been really sure what overcomes that except pointing it out to people lol

The most intense spiritual discipline I can think of is turning on read receipts on all your texts. I know an extremely prominent theologian who has read receipts on, and it's such a clear mark of sanctification.

Put too much side meat in my peas, hoping the salt doesn’t drive my blood pressure into the stratosphere. But it was delicious anyway! The ancestors have been placated for another year.
