My new fancy summer coffee creation is šŸ’Æ! šŸ„›+ā„ļø+ā˜•ļø == šŸ˜‹

The Collect for Sabbath Rest is a great reminder. So often I seek to pack my Saturdays too full. Today I’ll instead put “away all earthly anxieties” and place my focus on resting with and enjoying my family so, together, will be “prepared for the service of [God’s] sanctuary.ā€

A very good question indeed.

Why are we taxing bus riders to pay rich people to buy McMansions and luxury electric SUVs?

FaceTime counts as social media?!? Apple needs to work on Screen Time. A 30-minute Video Chat with Granny shouldn’t count against my social media time!

I love Screen Time in iOS 12, but there really needs to be a way to exclude Messages from the social media category.

2600 is, by far, the best tech publication I have ever read. šŸ–„ šŸ¤“

At IKEA in Atlanta. I don’t even want to know the story behind this sign!

Lee Greenwood’s got some unexpected soul in ā€œAin’t No Trickā€ šŸŽ¶

These DNC debates are awful. We need blue labor or some sort of Christian social democratic party.

I got a TRS-80 Model 100 off Craigslist a while back. Pretty fun little computer. Writing BASIC takes me back to the fourth grade for sure!

I love the ā€˜94 Book of Occasional Services on exorcism. Basically, ā€œDude, ask yo’ bishop. This is some real stuff!ā€

I bought ā€œAgainst Calvinismā€ six years ago before seminary and Anglicanism. Three chapters in, it’s amazing how Protestant it all sounds to me. Reformed Catholic English ā€œArminianismā€ of Bishop L. Andrewes is a much better place for me.

Baptist must necessarily reject the validity of Calvin, Luther, Augustine, and many other immanent theologians’ baptism. Until Baptist theologians find a mediating view that affirms the validity of Catholic baptism without rejecting credo baptism there is no way forward.

Chapter 2 of Olson’s ā€œAgainst Calvinismā€ struggles at times with why Calvinist Baptist are excluded from the ā€œReformedā€ label. I think it’s clear. The Baptist rejection of Catholic baptism is the stumbling block.

I know it’s unorthodox and I do love the BCP morning office, but I always find myself drawn back to the morning litany in Saint Augustine’s Prayer Book. šŸ™

It’s a Rend Collective type of rainy day. Remembering God’s joy and presence in all the storms!

Curses! This episode is making me want to get a stand-alone camera!

Y’all, now is a good time to pray the prayers for peace found in our beautiful new prayer book on page 654. #peace #anglican
