I’m surprised to find that there are no Joint Synod or REC parishes in Middle Tennessee.

I sold my tickets for the 🌈 game, but the Juneteenth match is my favorite. If only every game could begin with a hymn! — 🎶 God of our weary years, God of our silent tears. 🎵
More Matter Mini Review: The Nanoleaf Thread with Matter bulbs are not ready for prime time on Apple Home. — I’m not sure if the issue is with the bulbs or HomeKit, but bulbs continually forget their color settings and change to odd colors or slightly off-hue.
Matter & Thread Mini Review: ➕As responsive as Zigbee, no hubs, and full HomeKit integration. ➖Took two tries to get it working. Mysterious errors.
If you’re technical & an early adopter, go for it. Otherwise, give it a year.
This seems mostly on point to me, at least for larger companies. At small-business scale, I could see some flexible hybrid working. — Hybrid combines the worst of office and remote work
Anyone know anything about insurance for churches & non-profits? Given liability, directors & officers, and umbrella as options I’m assuming it’s best to take all three? — Just seems real pricey.

I’m so over this crap! I just want to take my kids to a soccer game and have a good time. MLS needs to drop the social and political theme nights. I just want to watch a game! ⚽️

Currently reading: Out of the Silent Planet by C.S. Lewis 📚— Very different than I expected. Suspenseful and well-written. Half way through and it’s hard to put down.
A very exciting milestone towards launching the mission church I’m leading in East Nashville. — We have found a place to meet!

Something about this ad bar seems very dystopian to me. — This free TV comes with two screens - The Verge
“This way of the church in the world is, to human sight, folly, utopia, ineffectiveness, and we are seized by discouragement when we see what there really is to do in this real world. We could let everything go “if we were not sure that we would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.” But we have seen this goodness. It has made itself manifest, and on this foundation we can go and face the powers of the world, in our absurd powerlessness, because “in all these things we are more than conquerors, through him who loved us. For I have the assurance that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor dominations, nor things present, nor the things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, will be able to separate us from the love of God, manifested in Jesus Christ our Lord!” (Rom 8: 37–39).” – Presence in the Modern World: A New Translation von Jacques Ellul a.co/eh2Pyb1
I didn’t expect a book written by a Frenchman to make me want to yell “hallelujah” at the end of a book, but boy did Jacques do it. Great read!
