A lovely little review of #GodtheChild which slipped through the cracks of my consciousness- amzn.eu/d/7GQXoVU

A reflection on faith & righteous suspicion in an age of abuse & Trump - grahamadams.substack.com/p/why-faith-ne…

This reflection is so painfully good - 'Jesus was bad for America - so we had to fire him' ... with his fondness for the downtrodden & losers, his love for enemies, his grace ... so he had to go: openhorizons.org/jesus-was-bad-…

Jesus embraced female imagery (mother hen), but this shouldn't be mistaken for cuddly-ness, because he called out (i.e. judged) 'foxes' - those who would harm 'the little'; it is politics against Strong Men (misogyny, bullying, abuse, non-empathy), advocating safety for all

This is very helpful: 'patrimonialism' as Trump's style of government, ie treating it as an extension of himself / his family business, so dismantling bureaucracy, & exposing his incompetence & corruption theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

This is exciting... the Italian translation of Holy Anarchy has just been published - dehoniane.it/9788810132425-…

Where will GOP draw the line & defy/ impeach him? Apparently not at unconstitutional firings, Signalgate, economy trashing, illegal arrest & imprisonment, trashing due process, lying about court rulings, defying Supreme Court, use of extrajudicial foreign prison. What next?

"A spiritual manifesto for a new, just and inclusive community"

Good to speak at Open Table about open-handed truth, & wisdom, in a world dominated by closed-handed truth. Imagine the alternative horizon: where attentiveness, empathy, receptivity to each other's stories, neighbourliness have the upper hand.

The Herds- performance art and climate activism, travelling 20,000 km - came to Manchester theherds.org

Nice to see these books promoted on Progressive Christianity in the US - progressivechristianity.org/resource/

Apparently processing a big birthday really well
