This essay feels a bit bolder and riskier than most (of mine). Curious to hear what y’all think! https://t.co/gvnH9OQ92o

@SohrabAhmari I'm a former UU minister, now rabbinical student. I've written a book: The Secret Despair of the Secular Left. It's an expose of the emptiness and grief I found in the post-religious world. I think you might like it! Emailing you at Compact.

Friends, I'm excited to share with you the launch of my new monthly blog, “The Religious Counterculture." I'll tell you more about it later, but wanted to get this first post out to you while it's still January! https://t.co/s0N0F9aOzE

@NYGovCuomo stop the Williams pipeline. It's unnecessary and destructive fossil fuel infrastructure.

Williams claims gas demand is rising to convert oil boilers to gas

Here are the facts:
☀️Most oil boiler conversions are already complete
💨Mainstream alternatives to new gas hookups abound
⚡️Gas demand is flat

@NYGovCuomo @NYSDEC Read the report here: https://t.co/a05154cyrC

My paperback is out! No Other Gods was first published a year ago and I'm excited that it's getting a new burst of life today. Please share and help me spread the word.
You can get it in all the usual places online + local bookstores. In NYC, Book Culture and Books Are Magic.

@AdrieneThorne @1stChBrooklyn Thank you @AdrieneThorne for your hospitality. @1stChBrooklyn is such a warm, loving congregation and the music is amazing! It was a blessing to be there.

Dear friends-
My first post on my new blog, "The Religious Counterculture," long awaited (by me, at least)! The Religious Counterculture explores religiously and spiritually grounded practices of resistance to the dominant culture. Enjoy!

Find out more about my journey to writing No Other Gods in this podcast interview with Kristianne Wargo from Create Your Now. I had to flex my cultural translation muscle a bit, but we had a great conversation and Kristianne was kind and curious.

An interview I did for SheLoves Magazine with Annie Rim. NO OTHER GODS is in the running to be one of the 2019 books for their Red Couch Book Club. Read the interview and then please comment "OMG this is so amazing" or something like that...https://t.co/VePECt2ROP

I’m happy to announce that I will be teaching at the 2018 ALEPH: Alliance for Jewish Renewal Kallah this summer. I’ll offer a one-day course entitled "The Ten Commandments: A Radical Manifesto for the Twenty-First Century." Visit https://t.co/MdQ9NxHFxH. I hope to see you there!

A weird and wonderful thing: this article in today's Deseret News quotes me (and others) on the Ten Commandments. The Deseret News is owned by the LDS Church and is apparently read by every Mormon in the country. The reporter interviewed me last week.

@JudgeLord @centerstreet @RoomofOnesOwn Thank you so much, Devin! You are amazing!

Dear upper west side friends,
Barnes & Noble (Broadway and 82nd) is now displaying NO OTHER GODS on their New Releases table. If you still want a copy, this would be a great time and place to get it. And I signed these copies. Many thanks,
Ana

Beautiful book launch event last night at Book Culture. I'm so grateful that so many of you made the schlep from the outer boroughs, other states, even from the east side! Thank you for the rich discussion and for buying No Other Gods. Let's keep the conversation going...

[Ana Levy-Lyons @Ana_LevyLyons]

NO OTHER GODS Launch tomorrow
Join me tomorrow (Wed, March 14) at 6:30 at Book Culture (450 Columbus Ave. at 82nd St.) for the release of No Other Gods: The Politics of the Ten Commandments. You don't have to believe in God or enjoy being commanded, though it's fine if you do...

[Ana Levy-Lyons @Ana_LevyLyons]

I am so grateful and still buzzing from a beautiful book launch party for NO OTHER GODS at First Unitarian, Brooklyn last night... good people, good food, good vibe, and we sold out on books! If you couldn't get a book, @FirstUBrooklyn will have 20 more copies for sale Sunday.
