Jason (on the phone): Becky stayed home today and made vegetable broth…she like takes old vege…well I don’t know what uses, but she puts it in a pot of water and lets it sit…well I don’t know how she makes it, but she used it in a soup tonight and it was good.

I have a confession to make

I support female pastors and equality between husbands and wives

And it’s time to admit…

I feel this way because I’ve been influenced by culture 🧵

@KnowTea The last day is tough! Hope you become sufficiently caffeinated!

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

Alive, awake, alert…

Enthusiastic!

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

@KnowTea Me neither!

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

Me, in the Blue Ridge Mountains, carefully locking my car every time I leave it, not because I’m worried about crime at Montreat, but because I’ve seen too many videos of bears getting into unlocked cars lately.

At the Chamber Choir concert at #montreatwm23 tonight. The adult choir on stage.

Finally, someone cracked the code for me. It’s a usb cigarette lighter adapter. Clever! Useful!

Well done, @JohnsonSeminary !

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

Picked this up at a swag table. Went on a quest to figure out what the heck it is. “Gather ‘round young people of #montreatwm23 and help your elder out!”

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

This afternoon caffeine can only mean one thing…
4th day of #montreatwm23

@PastorBenMarsh So dumb that this is a thing, but it really is.

“Is it ok to have a swear word in a hymn? This may be the only place this is ever sung,” David Bjorlin joked before we sang it last night.

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

“If the rituals in chapels are divorced from acts of care,
If the words we preach in churches are not good news everywhere,
If oppression grows around us and we do not give a damn,
Is our liturgy offensive, is our worship just a sham?”
David Bjorlin’s words sung at #montreatwm23

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

Hymn— “If We Eat Our Lavish Banquet”
©️2020 GIA publications
Sung to EBENEZER

@jazzpastord Me too! 💜 hope it rains a little less for you!

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

Sometimes the conference theme and the hymns chosen months before become prophetic. #showersofblessings #RainDown #montreatwm23

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

@matthewmccraw Maybe a kindle edition is coming? It looks great!

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

Seriously, I (a decent singer) was sitting between @mbmccandless and @KnowTea (amazing singers) in a lecture on rhyming in hymns and we sang a hymn as an example and I may as well have been singing, “And I’m Eunice!”

[Rev. Becky Durham @beckydurham]

This is how I feel sitting in the middle of a group while we are singing at #montreatwm23 this week. 😂 @KnowTea
