Lots of tears at this time of the year for moms who are learning how to give thanks in all circumstances. It helps to remember that home is the place they leave. open.substack.com/pub/mrsger…

I used one of these strategies this weekend at a grad party we threw for six senior boys. When everyone started cleaning up, I asked them all to grab a beverage and sit down in our living room instead. Let's bring back hospitality. And let's start with our own families.

I pray this way for my kids when they are playing competitive sports and the game is tense. I feel a physical connection to them through my spiritual intercession for them. I cannot explain it any better than you did here.
When I pray for someone, I imagine being attached to them with an invisible cord and then to God. And I think about how a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

According to Donald Cowan, teachers purposefully arrange “carefully and economically selected data” to “indicate the whole of reality, working by condensation, compression, incompleteness, suggestion.” We cannot do it all, so we must make choices. tinyurl.com/mr2k5puf

This is the book that administrators at classical schools need to be reading. It is also the book for those in classical ed who haven't been in the classroom recently. Things are different now, and Mark is asking us to think about what happens next. tinyurl.com/35tmt9f6
