Just trying to wake up every morning and love the world again and again while serving as an ELCA pastor in rural MN; hiking the bluffs; reading novels; advocating for immigrants, reproductive and LGBTQIA rights; hanging with beloveds. ✨🏳️‍🌈 🐈 🐈‍⬛ ♥️

Today’s day off to rest plan? To slow down and fully enjoy the master story telling I consistently find in Shannon T.L. Kearns writing. Three chapters in, and this book is being well highlighted!

This adorable girl is 6 today! While we’ve only been her home for the last couple of years, it’s been enough time for her to declare herself Queen of adorableness and demand we fall in line with all the skritches and cuddles … and of course an on-time feeding schedule.

This is fabulous. It would look pretty dang similar for us.
Ahead of Germany’s election, with anti-immigrant sentiment rising, they released viral videos showing life without immigrants.

History proves that when a country starts erasing certain people, it doesn’t end well.

This is exactly what I do now. It mostly works. There are a few companies that don’t have direct ordering from their company site, but we’ve been able to find things elsewhere.

We just wanted to take a moment to thank all our new supporters! Tomorrow, there will be more of us!

I ordered it from an indie bookstore as soon as I heard about it. Even if I don’t get around to reading it for awhile I want to support this book

Audiobooks recommendations?

The only up side of being too sick to do much of anything, including focus my eyes or sleep well, is that I listened to an entire audiobook (a novel) yesterday!

If that remains true today/tomorrow, what should I listen to?

I’m home sick today & this girl (Ginny) is keeping me warm. The pics of Ginny & Peaches together are from yesterday.

We apologize to our Ukrainian supporters. We are embarrassed by how our president and vice president have behaved. We are fighting to redeem the soul of America. 🇺🇸

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Picked up my library holds today. As long as I can calm my brain I’ll have enough to distract me for awhile when I need to stay offline.

What should I read first?
What are you reading?
