I refuse to be consoled...

[Middle Church @middlechurch]

“A voice is heard in Ramah; wailing and loud lamentation. Rachel weeping for her children. She refuses to be consoled for they are no more.”

Refuse consolation. Demand justice.

To all my Catholic rainbow 🌈 siblings... you are loved and worthy of love. Your relationships are affirmed by a God who created you to love. I am in awe of the way your life reflects our call to live out the walk of Jesus. #Loveislove #affirmation

@VeeCeeMurphy76 @StephanieMick75 Thank you. I’m here, in the very place it happened. It’s hard enough in eastern NC, but we have a very strong progressive movement (NH went blue in the last 2 Presidential elections, but gerrymandering hurts)

@realkimstover Almost every week, online and in person, I come into contact with people trying to convert me into becoming a real Christian. I’m a Pastor. This doesn’t matter to them.
