I’ve lived in the shadow of Mt Diablo for 25+ years and finally hiked it today. Wanted to turn back halfway up — the inclines were TOUGH — but as with most things, as Miley says, it’s worth the climb.
Asked by a Christian mom of an LGBTQ child why I was affirming, I said I believe God loves my daughter and wants her to flourish in all ways possible, including loving and being loved. Her reply: My problem with that is you’re assuming God wants us to flourish. *Sigh*
“I'm a pilgrim, still 'in recovery' from a bad church upbringing, searching for the possibility of a faith rooted in grace instead of fear.” (Philip Yancey)
I wish I had read this before my daughter came out as gay. Thank you, @Keen_KR
“When trans kids have the support of just one adult in their life, their risk factors (for depression, isolation, suicidal ideation, etc.) plummet significantly. One parent, one teacher or counselor who says: I see you and you’re beautiful.” podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fre…
Proud mama tweet: my girl Abby is in the final days of a @Kickstarter campaign and she’s almost there! Pre-order or donate to her new EP here (you’ll be glad you did - it’s so good!) kck.st/3N0vTai
I prompted ChatGPT to write a bio for me and it listed one of my "critically-acclaimed" albums, as "Be Still." Which, to my knowledge, I've never recorded. Maybe I did it it in my sleep?
Feeling hopeful after spending the weekend with a group of Christian parents who want to better love and understand their LGBTQ+ children. Thank you @centerpeaceinc for creating spaces for these necessary and beautiful conversations.
I wrote about my first #Pride experience for @theB4NP - an evangelical mom’s perspective on “Rainbows, Gold Lamé, and Jesus” thebiblefornormalpeople.com/rainbows_gold-…
“For some reason, the most vocal Christians among us never mention the Beatitudes (Matthew 5). But, often with tears in their eyes, they demand that the Ten Commandments be posted in public buildings. And of course, that's Moses, not Jesus. I haven't heard one of them demand…

“To pray, that is, to listen to the voice of the one who calls us the “beloved,” is to learn that that voice excludes no one.” Henri Nouwen
What if the point of our theology, the goal of our spirituality, is simply to love each other better? Imagine how freeing that would be. How much kinder the world would be.
“Christianity without love is worse than useless. It is actively dangerous.” A challenge and a warning from @dpgushee to keep love at the center of our public (and private) conversations. baptistnews.com/article/christ…
“My disruptive experiences are not outside impositions to or an attack on my faith, but are the soil out of which my faith matures and takes shape.” @peteenns (from Curveball - great read!)
