“Let us burn incense, not children. Let us break bread, not bodies.

Let us plant olive groves, not cemeteries.

We beg for love and compassion to prevail
on all your holy mountains.”

In this time of horror and grief and fear, I’m grateful for my former @Sojourners colleague @RMBerger’s powerful prayer for peace.

“God of Love,
we lift up Palestine and Israel — its people, its land, its creatures.

War is a monster that consumes everything in its path.

Peace is a gift shared at meals of memory with Christians, Muslims, and Jews.”

On days like this, I sure do miss my wacky home state (and a classic pork roll, egg, and cheese…)

[Governor Phil Murphy @GovMurphy]

Welcome to New Jersey. We’ve been waiting for you, @taylorswift13.

In honor of Taylor Swift bringing The Eras Tour to @MetLifeStadium, I am declaring the Taylor Swift Ham, Egg, and Cheese the official state sandwich.
