Ember Days are coming. I'll be on a hermitage retreat next week at Presbyterian Clearwater Forest.
I try to take quarterly retreats every year roughly aligned with Ember Days. Do you have any regular retreat plans that you observe? #emberdays

Question for Tolkienistas: When does a new day begin in the works of #Tolkien? Is it at sunrise? Sunset? Midnight? Midnight only makes sense if you have clocks, but hobbits had clocks according to Tolkien's own illustrations. Did various peoples reckon it differently?

Bad theology in Christmas songs is not a new thing, but this one is particularly egregious if for the sheer repetition of an obnoxious question. Hello? Do you never recite the Magnificat in worship? Probably not. #liturgy #marydidyouknow

My church has a Monday lunch program for high school kids who have open campus privileges. We often poll them to see what they want us to serve. Today it was bibimbap! I love everything about this. #pcusa

I took this picture 12 years ago of my then teenage kids carrying the tree home. Every year I post it on social media because it just speaks to the essence of the holidays, doesn't it?

I challenge you when writing your holiday letters to NOT use the word "busy" anywhere.
Don't say "work has been busy" or "it's been a busy year for the Andersons" or "our teenager sure keeps us busy."
Instead speak of the things that bring you joy, create hope, increase love, and make for peace.

There's only one thing that I know how to do well
And I've often been told that you only can do
What you know how to do well
And that's be you,
Be what you're like,
Be like yourself,
And so I'm having a wonderful time
But I'd rather be whistling in the dark

Clergy, do you have a national flag in your sanctuary? If so, where is it located? What do your denominational rules say about flag placement?

Ted, I appreciate your honesty and vulnerability with your children, and it must be hard being a single dad, but let's talk about healthy boundaries... #himym
