INBOX: Another federal judge has issued an order (mostly) blocking DHS from raiding churches for now.

The injunction applies to most of the plaintiffs, which include five ELCA Lutheran synods, two Baptist organizations, and Metropolitan Community Churches. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

“The officers told nurses Castañeda Mondragón ‘purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall,’ an account his caregivers immediately doubted.”

“I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.”

It’s nice being able to see the numbers, but the players constantly turning semi-transparent is distracting. #nfl

Six months ago, I wrote and filmed a video devotion for this week’s entry in a devotional book for ELCA Lutheran schools. This year’s theme is “Brave.” Check it out: youtu.be/-7MDMUfghUI?...

Wall Street Journal has a pretty clear headline and helpful video analysis: “Videos Contradict U.S. Account of Minneapolis Shooting by Federal Agents”

“Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.” Here’s my sermon from Sunday on Paul’s reminder that even in challenging times, we are not lacking in any gift, because God gives us the strength we need to love our neighbors. #lutheran

Dear TikTok, it’s a video of a spacewalk. Is it really necessary to add a warning? “The actions in this video are performed or supervised by professionals. Do not attempt.”

I recently saw someone suggest you can tell the difference between Christians who grew up singing “Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world” and those who grew up singing “Jesus Loves Me.” But…🧵

Here’s the audio version of the Epiphany sermon I ended up preaching on peace and Venezuela. In my relatively liberal ELCA congregations, I had several people thank me for it and one express concern it was too political. pod.link/1669098407/e...

Perhaps the “fixation” is because the President said multiple times, “We're going to run the country” and as Secretary of State Rubio himself said, “The 47th President of the United States is not a game player.

Well, I had a perfectly nice Epiphany sermon written two days ago. I’ve now scrapped 90% of it and started over to talk about Venezuela. Praying folks still hear Gospel and don’t close down if it sounds political.

I've written to my representative and senators to express my vehement opposition to the United States attempting to "Run the Country" of Venezuela as President Trump just said our nation would do. Arresting Maduro may be good for the world, perhaps even legally justifiable.

Lord,
Before time began, You were love.
We long for Your life and light.
Teach us how to more fully love You.
Amen.

A blessing for our fourth week of Advent.

My 2.5 year old is preparing for today’s Christmas program by enthusiastically singing at breakfast, “Go, tell it on the mountain! That’s where Jesus Christ is born!” Some of the nativity story’s geographical details remain a bit hazy.
