HOT TAKE: Gnostics are dumb.
The whole notion that the spirit and body are separate and that the body is inherently evil has always seemed janky to me — and this week, my body has had a lot to teach me about faith and healing.

If anybody wants to help me reboot BIBLEMAN, I think I've got a pitch. Just discovered it and would 10/10 write this. Even have a title. You ready?
Bibleman: The Second Coming
Producers -- you know where to find me.
Don't cheer up. Don't perform joy. Be honest.
No relationship (including one with God) can thrive without honesty.
And it's not like anybody can fool him with prostrations anyway.

Hey, when's somebody gonna point out that misrepresenting the bible for, idk, MAGA or Christian Nationalism or anti-immigration . . . this isn't just a matter of omitting verses against those ideas . . .
It's also like the definition of bearing false witness?
Happy Monday.

Every time I see one of those "Grandpa Joe" reels, after the initial heartwarming wears off, I always find myself wondering the same question:
How is this dude still alive, eating like that?
It's Ascension Day, commemorating the Christian belief of the bodily ascension of Jesus into heaven. Our MS Dd.4.17, a 14th-century Book of Hours probably made in the East Midlands, has a great image of Jesus' feet about to disappear into a cloud. #ascensionday
THIS WEEK'S FLOW:
Could everything we do be an act of worship?
Why does church sometimes feel too easy?
Shouldn't Christian art be so damn good it makes atheists weep?
...And how a simple street tag might be our greatest example.

In this week's flow: Christian prepping, telepathic kids meet Jesus, "show don't tell" as a church mantra, death in the streets, and surprise shots of grace.
A whole lot happened this week, so this entry's a whole lot.

We often think of peace as stillness, tranquility, an absence of trouble . . . but what if it's actually a state of mind that allows you to deal when trouble strikes?
What if you took that feeling of "somebody do something!!!" and . . . did something?

Should we start prescribing "content" diets?
Do we know what our words can really do?
Where do our bad moods come from?
And how do you heal a weary soul?
This new visual flow explores it all:

Hit the link and wonder with me if typewriters speak, if everything is conscious, if the bible backs that up. Stick around for a story about how we all might be angels, a whiff of failure, and a prayer I hate repeating but often have to.
