Aside from the turnovers, I think I’m mist stunned by Sark (who always loves going for it on 4th and short) choosing a long field goal that missed I’m the 4th. But, more importantly, the third quarter disappearance cost more than anything else…sigh…

Are you feeling that sense of renewal and restoration in the air? It’s not your imagination. It’s the return of college football and a great start from the Longhorns! Hook ‘em!

i haven’t even finished the NYT op-ed section today and have so far come across, by my count, three different pieces that take as their founding argument an AOC quote that she did not meaningfully say.

I don't think "neutral" is accurate. Most public figures try to stay neutral. There's nothing special about that. Dolly was different. She said that her politics were simple: "love and acceptance." That's not passive neutrality. It's the conviction of active, courageous inclusion and invitation.

I heard the band Goose before I heard the band Geese, and that definitely shaped my bias toward the former.

I love how my Bible labels this chapter in Jonah, and that in the face of the overwhelming grace of God all Jonah can muster is responding in indignation, “Come on, LORD!” Lord, help me not to balk at your tremendous grace that is offered to all your children…

Revisiting U2's "Songs of Experience" album lately and I'm convinced it is one of their very best works. I hate that people let the underthought iphone stunt of their prior album (which was also very solid) keep them from enjoying some of their best post-"All That You Can't Leave Behind" music.

Public Universities actually did undertake a significant effort to control tuition costs and for the past decade those costs have, inflation adjusted, basically not gone up and it has seemingly done nothing to change the public perception of higher ed.

My pastoral moment of zen the last couple of days has been having someone challenge my/the UMC’s use of experience and reason in interpreting scripture by citing…their own experiences and reason.

This is one of my favorite Glen Hansard performances. It really captures the joy of seeing him live, the connections with all the musicians he worked with, and the crowd. Let some light shine on your soul with this half hour or so, and remember this great artist... www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-0r...

Tennessee State Rep. Justin Jones is one of my personal heroes. I recently had the chance to speak to him about the racist redistricting plot being enacted in his state and others in the South. Republicans are trying to bring us back to the Jim Crow era that so many fought (and died) to end.

I can handle students using sources to lie on essays. I have the power to insist they revise. I can handle FB friends lying on my FB wall. I can delete their comments. I am not sure what to do about my SCOTUS lying on my dime & my time while refusing to circle back & course correct. Thoughts?

I called Tennessee home for a few years. I know many whose hearts are aching, voices unheard, and votes diluted today. My heart is with you as the consequences of the Supreme Court action against the Voting Rights Act ripple out to our neighbors.

We must understand that the Voting Rights Act was not merely about ensuring Black Americans rights, it was about democratizing America. This ruling is not just a decimation of Black rights and Black Americans’ ability to have representation, it is a fatal blow to multiracial democracy.

So I think lately if I were to rip off a cultural conversation for a faith/church-based podcast thing I’d use Mike Birbiglia as a template and talk with folks about process and meaning-making and call it “Churching it Out.” Any takers?

this is a great brief and it appropriately ends with a killshot: the simple observation that if trump's meaning held, the birthright clause would not have overturned dred scott, the one thing it was absolutely meant to do.

Some levity... Sunday is Transfiguration Sunday, all about how Jesus undergoes "metemorphothe/metamorphosis." Also, "transfigured" is more often translated these days as simply "transformed." So take you pick this weekend with "Transformer Jesus" or "Mighty Morphin' Power Jesus." You're welcome.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them
