Oh, this is very good. #ELCAcwa An excellent example of how the process isn't helping us right now. It isn't a bad process, and it's not run by bad people! It's just not working. There's no shame in changing something that isn't working.

6 years ago the Synod office told my congregation, for the purpose of calculating my salary, to ignore 4 years of my ordained ministry. Telling people @ELCA ordinations of LGBTQ folk only happened 10 years ago- impacts our salaries.
"The faithful thing for us to do right now in caring for those who are vulnerable and at risk, and in order to slow the disease even more, is to stay home. So, as much it hurts, we still have God and each other, and this will be over." ~@ELCABishopEaton youtube.com/watch?v=TNrPCh…
It’s always wild when the thing that has been on your to-do list for six months takes a total of 15 minutes when you finally decide to do it.
Ramadan begins at sundown today. During this month Muslims fast from food and water during the day. This spiritual discipline reminds them of their complete dependence on God and the call to serve the most vulnerable. Ramadan Mubarak. Blessed Ramadan.
Even if we don’t succeed at being the church in this time and in the midst of this crisis, the Holy Spirit won’t let her charge, all God’s children, flounder. #3rdarticle #pneuma #elca
Anne Frank spent 2 years hiding in an attic and we’ve been home for just over a month with Netflix, food delivery & video games and there are people risking viral death by storming state capital buildings & screaming, “Open Fuddruckers!”

Great puzzle. Not quite a Saturday PB, but close. Not often that the hardest puzzle of the week was on Wednesday. #NYTXW
I feel like the institution has been talking "innovation" for quite a few years. I feel like that was a lot of work with FTE. Now I think we're just using it to provide life support to a dying system?
Ministry folk, in the context of the current institutional church, how do you define "innovation"? Because I think folks are super good at using buzzwords without talking about what these words actually *mean*.
How long it takes for someone to text you back has nothing to do with you and how they feel about you, and everything to do with that other person’s relationship to technology, and what is happening for them in their in-the-moment life. #therapy
Paid family leave is a huge boon to parents and families, helping to secure economic stability. Here's how much leave you get in a few OECD nations: • Norway: 35 or 45 weeks • UK: 40 weeks • Canada: 18 weeks • France: 16 weeks • Japan: 14 weeks ... • USA: 0 weeks
Frustrated bishop here: I grow weary of hearing about sermons preached "on social justice" or "on white male privilege" or "on LGBTQ rights". A sermon rightly preached in a xian context is about the work of God thru Jesus forgiving & claiming us. Jesus first, the rest follows.
Shout out to mysterious amulets, causin' supernatural mischief in 72% of movies and whatnot.
How many women do you think were involved in the decision to ordain women in U.S. Lutheran churches? St. Olaf student Erin Magoon writes about her research in the ELCA archives: wp.stolaf.edu/news/student-v…
I'll straight up feed baby carrots to a man and Manwich to a baby I really don't give a shit anymore.
@elcacwa is there an intentional pronunciation change where we are eh-vangelical now? Avoiding our siblings of political and theological conservatism? Or am I just overly accented when I’ve been saying ee-vangelical?

People do not come to church to find God. God is within each of them already. They come to be reminded of the good they are capable of and the God who calls them to choose the good, the just, the holy. They come wanting to know how to recognize God’s voice. #listeningforgod
