I'm studying the sermons of an Anglo-Saxon monk from the 10th c, and his name means elf power. It's things like this that keep me going.

A new project from @rpryor03 and me: Episcopal Chant, a liturgical chant database to help anyone get up and chanting.

Interactive and downloadable chant settings available for free: tell your liturgist friends!

@ThomasEtAmici You can't get any better than that! Similarly, I preached yesterday, and one person commented that what I had to say was very hopeful, and then another said it was good, but depressing. Got to love the work of the Holy Spirit!

[Rev. Dr. Nathan John Haydon @nathanhaydon]

@RiccardiSwartz That is simultaneously a frightening theocratic mindset and an impoverished view of God and the Church.

@PotentiaEtActus I'm trying really hard to resist getting the AOB because of the amount of prayer books/breviaries I already own, but I feel like I'm starting to weaken

What hymn has you singing like this?

[Cameron Nixon @CameronJNixon]

Waiving my anonymity in peer review feels so much better. It takes away all temptations to fall into the trap of snarky academic, and instead I found myself offering a lot more words of encouragement. Try it sometime! :)

@Rtaylor515 It's wearying how people like him call anything they don't like gnosticism. And it shows a refusal to understand what the physical body means regarding LGBTQ+ lives, female priests, etc.

Today I learnt that there is a 1968 series of Charlie Brown books in Latin.

OK then: our latest Classics books give-away! Just RT this message, and on Sunday 6 August we will draw *three* names from our followers: the first picks 25 books; the second 15; the third the rest (unless they don't want some, which will be raffled off at random!)

As a young child this moment was burned into my brain.

I was not a victim, but the priest who baptized and confirmed me when I was a teenager was years later removed from his parish due to credible allegations of sexual abuse.

X is the future state of unlimited synergistic telesocialization - centered in frog memes - creating a global marketplace for ideas, goods, and users with “Father/Husband/Christian” in their profile DMing you for nudes. Powered by AI, X will create torment beyond imagination.

my entire life has led me to this moment

[BabelColour @StuartHumphryes]

No, it's not a photoshoot for a Christian Bale movie, this smouldering monk is actually Father Arthemios of the Hilandar Monastery on Mount Athos, Greece, photographed 105 years ago by Fernand Cuville in September 1918. This enhanced autochrome Is original colour, not colourised.
