Have you heard? Neptune has entered Aries, the start of a new 165-year cycle. And yeah, I don’t know WTF that means. But I did almost die twice this week, so … something … is … shifting …

This is a good story. Underneath the anger, is grief, brokenheartedness. Pointing to the things you love that are being threatened. Or things that are broken that you need to let go. Listen very carefully to your anger. There is path to liberation through your rage, not the rage itself but under it.
Story time: I got assaulted yesterday while protesting in the freezing cold. And here’s what I wish I had done differently. 🙏 #FeelTheFeelings #SitWithEmotions #DoNotProtestAlone 😅

My reflection on joining the #WalkForPeace today in #HighPointNC. Two things are happening in our country right now—one ugly and awful and one beautiful and peaceful—and we have to be able to hold both things in our hearts and in our minds. 🙏

Do we need to see
the tortured bodies of this regime
like we saw Emmett Till
in his open casket,
face destroyed?
His grieving mother’s
gut-wrenching
heart-rending choice.

Is Pam Bondi going to be the first one thrown under the bus? Why is Kash Patel still there? What about Pete Hegseth? They are all going to go down eventually, because their last name isn’t Trump.

Many years ago, toward the beginning of the dot-com Gold Rush, I thought I might be able to get rich buying & selling domain names &—b/c I’m really not that smart—I chose one of the smallest most obscure niches of all, the names of “popular” Christian authors. I owned JohnPiper.com & several others.
