The Walt Disney Company has suffered in recent years. This is a good time for us to remember the words of Walt Disney who said, “Everybody falls down. Getting back up is how you learn to walk.”
"What is war? I believe that half the people who talk about war have not the slightest idea of what it is. In a short sentence it may be summed up to be the combination and concentration of all the horrors, crimes, and sufferings of which human nature is capable." - John Bright
Today, during our Monthly Business Meeting, the people of First Friends unanimously affirmed this Prayer for Peace. It comes from FWCC website. You can see it and sign is individually on the FWCC website here: fwcc.world/christian-call…
When the day gets tiring, frustrating, or I find myself getting caught up in things that are trivial...I just pick up my phone and look at this picture on my home screen of me holding my 2 month old granddaughter, Maisie, and all is well.
Today, JCRC staff helped organize a faith press conference calling for fair redistricting. Angela Espada, Exec Director of @incatholicconf, speaks to Catholic legislators that their faith teaches them fairness is a key tenant & to carry that with them during this process.
Just to be clear, if your robocall or spam call message begins with, "Please don't hang up..." there is a 100% chance that I am going to...well...hang up. Thank you for attending my seminar.
My Reading Stack to work through over the next few weeks ...or months. A couple are a re-read. Lots of good stuff out there right now.
The counting of votes will soon end and, as always, some will be elated and some will be deflated. And the fact remains, the Church still needs to continue to be the conscience of the state and never the Chaplain of Empire. The Church's allegiance is always Higher. Be faithful

Dear Pro Athletes, I realize playing in an empty stadium is not ideal but I've been preaching in an empty sanctuary for the last 3 1/2 months and recording our worship...and I'm guessing you make a bit more then I do. You can do this. I believe in you. Sincerely, A Sports Fan
Insecure leadership divides people in order to distract from the issues Inspiring leadership unites people in order to deal with the issues
Insecure leadership consolidates and hides behind power Inspiring leadership collaborates and gives away power
Insecure leadership avoids the truth in order to hang on to power Inspiring leadership speaks the truth in order to empower
Insecure leadership takes all the credit to build up their reputation Inspiring leadership gives others all the credit to build up the organization
Insecure leadership sees relationships as an obstacle and a bother Inspiring leadership sees relationships as an opportunity and a necessity
Insecure leadership looks to blame and avoid responsibility Inspiring leadership owns the blame and looks for new possibilities
