I was interviewed by the inimitable Lisa Ling for a feature on my hospital chaplaincy work and on grief, faith, and hope. Thank you Lisa and for all who have kindly been alongside, most especially my amazing coworkers. ♥️🙏 @lisaling youtu.be/RUVheWGBFd0?fe…



I don’t think we need conspiracy theories anymore. It’s just all out in the open for everyone to see. We’ve been had, run, and fleeced at every turn.
“To accept one’s past—one’s history—is not the same thing as drowning in it; it is learning how to use it. An invented past can never be used; it cracks and crumbles under the pressures of life like clay in a season of drought.” — James Baldwin, The Fire Next Time (1962)
“People who treat other people as less than human must not be surprised when the bread they have cast on the waters comes floating back to them, poisoned.” — James Baldwin, No Name in the Street (1972)
“People are afraid to be pried loose from their ignorance.” — Maya Angelou, “One on One,” interview with Greg Jackson (1983)
I hate that one day I’ll have to explain to my children this entire era of American Christianity and its absolute absurdity and hypocrisy. I hope I’ll get to explain it in past tense.
I saw this comment recently and it still rings true: “First they came for the journalists and I did not speak out because no one knew what happened.”
Five years ago I almost started a podcast. I went to therapy instead. I still don’t have a podcast. I made two good decisions. ❤️🩹
I work at a level 1 trauma center and this show is incredibly accurate, very humanizing, and honors every healthcare worker and the very difficult work we do. 👏👏👏🫶 #ThePitt #chaplain
After you have wounded me, I make a choice to keep my humanity by seeing yours. I will not allow your desecration of me to desecrate how I see me or you.

Idiocracy is when those in charge perfectly overlap between incompetence and malice. Recklessly ignorant and indulgently destructive. Too stupid to know they’re stupid and too malicious to care.
My book on grief is 16 months old and it’s only $1.99 right now in ebook. ❤️🩹 amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0CD3P…

A little off topic but does everyone have a texting friend? For memes and talking wild and being completely unhinged and yourself? I have a few and it’s seriously therapeutic. Hard to imagine going through a day without them, especially now.
