do you guys think jesus, the son of a carpenter, smelt the wood of the cross & temporarily thought of home

there should be a website where you take a personality quiz and then it matches you with a saint and gives you their life story

jesus entering jerusalem for the last time is meaningful. but it's wrong to think that there is a terminus here, or that we can talk only of him entering on a colt in the morning. because the gospel tells us that he spends the whole day in the city, looking around, wandering, engaging, ongoing, becoming, until it is very late--and only then does he go to find a place to rest with his friends. the image of palm sunday is not of a god entering holy ground. instead, it is a god entering holy ground for the last time--and he knows this. he's taking it all in. he's turning quietly down a side street to take a deep breath. he's staying out later than half of his friends want him to. this god is nostalgic. moving slow, dragging his feet. wanting one, last, good day

Sorry, but I'd rather accidentally love too many people than too few. I'd rather accidentally welcome people I'm not supposed to than exclude people I'm supposed to welcome. I think God looks much more kindly on one of those than the other.

"Why are you supporting X group when you know that they would hate you for being X?" is such an odd take to me. Are you only capable of caring for the people who care for you? Skill issue. Luke 6:32.
God loves your body. Your intersex body, your transsexual body, your nonbinary body, your transgender body, your genderqueer body, your androgynous body. Whatever body you have, God loves it dearly.
