The Resurrection is not an afterthought to the atonement. It is no mere sign that the “Cross check” didn’t bounce. Instead, the Resurrection of Christ is the firstfruit and forestaste of our redemption—an unbreakable promise made from the other side of the promise-breaking grave.

Reading through the past year’s journal entries. On Barth and Bonhoeffer, 2020-05-27: “Are they just adding the Bible to their dialectical machinations to lend legitimacy to their BS?” 😂😭

Anyone use Ghost? Thoughts on how it stacks up vs Wordpress and Squarespace? I use Wordpress for my personal site and Anglican Compass. I use Squarespace for my new 80/20 Tools project. But Ghost looks really tempting!

Wood and Nails
theportersgate.bandcamp.com/track/woo…
The kingdom’s come and built upon wood and nails gripped with joyfulness, So send me out, within Your ways knowing that the task is finished. The dead will rise and give You praise - wood and nails will not hold them down! These wooden tombs, we’ll break them soon and fashion them into flower beds, The curse is done, the battle won swords bent down into plowshares, Your scar-borne hands, we’ll join with them, serving at the table You’ve prepared.

Hey! Before you post that next Twitter thread, why don’t you just go start a blog instead? Micro.blog is a great, easy way to own your own digital real estate instead of just sharecropping for Facebook, Twitter, etc.

A year ago today, I was the Celebrant at the Eucharist. It was only my 2nd or 3rd time celebrating HC as a priest. I had no idea that we would be “meeting” via Zoom for (at least) the following year! I wish I could go back and savor that gathering even more. Lord, have mercy.

OK, y’all. I’ve been using Roam Research for a bit. Do I switch to Obsidian? Or stick it out with Roam?! (Mainly asking because so many people on micro.blog use Obsidian, apparently.)

I sometimes wonder what a “red team” analysis of the ACNA would look like. If things were to completely fall to pieces in the next few years, what would the causes and the fault lines be? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_…

With my top strengths of Input, Intellection, Learner, Ideation, & Analytical, I’m tempted to follow Brian Clark’s advice and focus on content curation to make money. My roadblock is finding a profitable topic. Not sure if people will pay for theology or Anglicanism!

Are there any good books out there about feeling “ecclesiastically homeless”?

What’s the best, fairest, most detailed theological critique of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer? I keep hearing and reading vague “more revolutionary than evolutionary” critiques, but would love to read a theologically nuanced and detailed critique.
