Today I started a new job from a new house in a new city…
But I found the same Church, the same home. Deo gratias 🌿

Plenty of guests at @amjunek.bsky.social’s wedding had to get back in time to preach the mysterious grace of the Three-in-One and One-in-Three. Most of them weren’t traveling from Texas to Seattle

For a little context here: Christ Church put forward a zoning request to open a shelter for unhoused people - I think it was like 12 beds. The local government of Toms River is responding by trying to eminent domain the church and turn it into a pickleball court

for he gave them what they craved.
But they did not stop their craving, *

A letter from the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas.
“I never thought I would live in a time when the United States government would censure a bishop, jeopardize religious free speech, or threaten to take people while they attend worship.” ⚓️

One of the co-sponsors of the House bill condemning Budde's sermon, listed below, is Rep. Beth Van Duyne, an Episcopalian.
I reached out to the Rt. Rev. C Andrew Doyle of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas, which appears to be her diocese.
He told me he was concerned about govt "policing our sermons."

christians who obsess over lgbtq people, who can’t stand it when we find peace, have no peace in themselves, and they don’t know the one they are trying to follow. 🕯️⚓️

That, when next He comes with glory
And the world is wrapped in fear,
He may shield us with His mercy
And with words of love draw near.
And the world is wrapped in fear,
He may shield us with His mercy
And with words of love draw near.

I get asked a lot for PROFESSIONAL/CAREER ADVICE, so I’ll add to this thread over time.
Add yours too.
Starting with the best advice I ever got. It’s guided me over a career that has exceeded my expectations, but has also reflected my intentions.
