It cannot be overstated what Deion Sanders did today. To turn the whole Colorado program around from what it was last season to today beating a team that played in the National Championship last season… It’s one thing to talk about it. It’s another to actually do it. Wow.

Does anyone else wish there was a version of church without the church? Like a collective people of group you share some interest with & saw every Sunday morning for coffee & doughnut holes and listened to some interesting talk.

A number of years ago, the Orthodox theologian, Fr. Thomas Hopko, composed 55 maxims to guide Christians in their daily lives and struggles. Here are ten of my favorites. 1. Be always with Christ. 2. Have a short prayer that you constantly repeat when your mind is not occupied…

5yo: What’s Romeo and Juliet? Me: Well, it’s a story about two people who fell in love, and… [2 parents, both English professors, one a Shakespearean, give a long and age-inappropriate synopsis] 5yo: Wow. Me: Yeah. It’s sad. 5yo: Yeah. I can’t believe they FELL in LAVA!


What will win tonight: the caffeine from my dinner-time soda or Nyquil? #stillawake #caffeineFTW


Denver Nuggets: like mining in the mountains, not dining with soda fountains.

When you eat one of these, do you empty all the gummies into your hand at once and throw away the wrapper, or are you one of them adults who knows *exactly* where their birth certificate is right now????

I've spent all day at a ServSafe Manager training. We're on break until the test in a few minutes. Why do I feel more scared for this than I did for my Ordination exam? It's like I'm staring down the minor prophets on the BCE all over again. Eek!

I’m at the airport going to LA and the most gorgeous man I’ve ever seen just sat down on the floor next to me and not only has two books in his bag but he’s eating a whole ass steak burrito at 9am. Y’all I think I found my soulmate

Yesterday I asked my kindergartener what she did in school and she said "nothing," then later I went on Instagram and her teacher had posted a picture of her holding a crocodile.


I am ridiculously excited to see the @mountain_goats tonight. Glad I talked Steve into a midweek trip to Sioux Falls.


The lady in front of me at the pharmacy was picking up a prescription for her dog. She was asked for a driver's license. SHOULD THAT DOG BE DRIVING IF HE'S ON MEDICATION?? I have questions.

What happened in Tennessee is the latest example of a broader erosion of civility and democratic norms. Silencing those who disagree with us is a sign of weakness, not strength, and it won’t lead to progress.


I'm not preaching Easter tomorrow and it feels really weird, but in a good way. Next year I'll do a sunrise service at camp. This year I'm savoring the calm and thinking of all my pastor friends.


When I was a kid, I had a delicious sub sandwich. For 30+ years I've been trying to find a sandwich that compares. Tonight I found it. Thanks, @jerseymikes. Yum!

Call me old-fashioned, but I believe some intimate things should be reserved for marriage. A man should wait until his wedding night to untie the green ribbon around his wife’s neck and let her head tumble to the ground.
