Finally reading the hard copy of the chapter I wrote for Pub Theology & Beyond, "Stolen Cookies: A Take On Black Lives Mattering." Each chapter is paired with an icebreaker, jumping-off points for conversation, and optional reading. You can buy here: https://t.co/emDGJoTZO3 https://t.co/TM2xxXuD0F

I've been relistening to 'The Four Agreements' audiobook, so my tweets gon be sounding like a knock off Don Miguel Ruiz. Sorry, not sorry.

“Without the Holy Spirit, there is no movement and, therefore, no life in creation. The Holy Spirit infuses creature of clay with life.” (Karen Baker-Fletcher, _Dancing with God_)

"Behind her bosom [her breasts/the Shaddai], lie her heart and lungs--the power of life and breath." - Karen Baker Fletcher x _Dancing With God_

Hard times require furious dancing. - Alice Walker I hope you find a way to dance today, beloveds. Dance like no one is watching. "Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance." Dance.

Finished #BestManTheFinalChapters It was terrific. I love how writers are telling hard stories that don't have warm and fizzy endings. I saw my life in Harper & Robyn's divorce and in Jordan's story and how she chose freedom and passion over endless corporate climbing.
