@RealPatSawyer @NeilShenvi Sorry this is happening! Got my copy when it first came out. Are there plans for an audiobook version (haven’t seen one)?

@Joseph_Fasano_ If i were to get a tattoo, i’m thinking Probably “After such knowledge, what forgiveness?” from “Gerontion.” Watching it age on me would also fit the poem well i think?

This is the moment The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem was closed due to Coronavirus.

Last time this happened was in 1349, during The Black Death, a bubonic plague pandemic.

What’s fascinating about this story is the guy with the keys.

Peace to the weary.
Space to the grieving.
Company to the wandering.
Time to the questioning.
Freedom to the captive.
Bread to the hungry.
Welcome to the rejected.
Reparations to the exploited.
Tears to the learning.
Laughter to the lamenting.
Joy for the morning, today.

@aarontiffany Haha, yeah, but that finish though?!

[Matt Bridges @Pastor_Matty_B1]

@jenmercieca And i am really looking forward to reading your book!

[Matt Bridges @Pastor_Matty_B1]

@jenmercieca What might be the rhetorical strategy equivalent of the self defense mechanism of “projection”? Some have applied projection to explain POTUS’ actions/words (and i definitely understand why), but SDMs are typically defined as being unconscious reactions and actions.
