Hey @manton I feel like I remember there being a way to embed a “subscribe” short code for newsletters in Micro.Blog, but perhaps I’m confusing that with @write_as@writing.exchange
Tap Room Tuesday Reflection: Civility

The crew gathered for the first time in over a month in the Tap Room Annex this past Tuesday for the return of Tap Room Tuesday. This little gathering was once called Doubt on Tap, but over the last ten years or so it has become something more than that. It’s become a community.
So, Tuesday nights we gather around the table and discuss things that matter.

Welcome to the Mess

As I look at the landscape of the American church today I see so much that leaves me sad. My social media feeds are flooded with people who are rightly criticizing the American church, it’s not hard to do. We have failed across the board in so many ways. Everywhere I look I can find examples of what not to do. If clicks and popularity in the online space is the primary factor for being online then it appears a Christian “thought leader” or “influencer” can go one of two ways. They can become political megaphones for one side or the other. The other way is to become a constant voice of critique of the Church or a non-stop defender of the Church regardless of the issue.
I confess that there was a moment when I began to be very attracted to simply critiquing everything. It’s so easy. There’s so much to critique.
I didn’t like what I was becoming.

Off to a good start!
The Gospels
Our survey of the Bible continues as we enter the New Testament and look briefly at the four gospels.

The #OldGal popped a 4 today. She is trending now to lower scores. This weekend might be tough. Sheβs wiley!

The #OldGal had a busy morning of doctor appointments, so her score just came in. She dropped a 5! Likely due to giving up blood at her doctor today. π
