@revsev75 @FailingPastor So glad to meet a fellow sunday morning preacher!!

[Lura Groen @lura_groen]

God would really rather just stay snuggled up here in bed with you today.

[Lura Groen @lura_groen]

In Ephesians 3:2, the NRSV translates Paul as saying he has a “commission of God’s grace.” Which I never got, but whatever.

The Common English Bible calls it “the responsibility to distribute God’s Grace.”

Isn’t that the loveliest thing?

TFW your mother-in-law argues over dinner that racism doesn't exist

[Anon Church Guy @MrChurchGuy]

A shout out to all the second and third string players who get a chance to shine in church this Sunday; I'm sure it will be adequate.

The struggle and issue with "agree to disagree"

[Jeff Weddle @FailingPastor]

I have no doubt that the Spirit groans when I pray.

[Matt Rittle @pastorrittle]

@danabgirl So if it's helpful, you're top page multiple times, but NOT number one or even the first church for me.

[Lauren Seganos Cohen @LaurenSCohen]

I’m a pastor; thoughts and prayers are literally what I do for a living. You know what I can’t do? Pass universal background checks and ban military-grade weapons. We are LITERALLY the only country in the world where this happens.

@danabgirl I would drink either

[Lauren Seganos Cohen @LaurenSCohen]

Friends, please try to not comment on how old you think someone is, especially if they’re serving you in some professional role. Odds are, you’re probably wrong. And trust me, they’re sick of hearing it. Signed, a 31yo pastor who was told she looks like a middle schooler today.

[Lura Groen @lura_groen]

Me: tweets a thing taught in every mainline seminary 101 class.

Lay people: whoa!!! Why didn’t someone tell me?!?!? This changes everything!!! 🤯

Mainline clergy: yawn. We already knew this.

Me: but my dudes, apparently you didn’t tell anybody.

[Matt Rittle @pastorrittle]

@danabgirl Whoa
For real??

"Mr. Mulvaney, like Mr. Kupperman, finds himself caught in that division, trapped between the commands of two of its co-equal branches—with one of those branches threatening him with contempt." https://t.co/ffx4WyGoQX

Late Night Breaking: Acting WH Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney has filed a motion to intervene in Charles Kupperman's lawsuit in DC federal court, now asking the court to decide if he must comply with a House subpoena to testify as part of the impeachment inquiry. @CourthouseNews

[Jeff Weddle @FailingPastor]

THEM: Why doesn't our church have a prayer chain like all the other churches?

ME: Cuz I want you guys to work for your gossip.

[Matt Rittle @pastorrittle]

@danabgirl We all did our best to name some of the more difficult moments, especially in the David and Bathsheba conversation.

I admit some mixed feelings about this thread and thanks for the reminder [was just trying to stay sane frankly but still]

[Matt Rittle @pastorrittle]

TFW your Ethics teacher doesn't understand the concept of boundaries. [Thinking them to be only societal set and not deeply personal].
