We used to start and stop our days with sunrises and sunsets. We once rested when the sun laid its head below the horizon. Now we work into the dark, driven to create our own light at night. We weren’t meant to be constantly lit. @watsonopolis via @missioalliance

Recgonizing the changing seasons, and the return to fall schedules that can turn up the chaos in our lives, I wrote a piece for @missioalliance on what it means to have rhythms of rest. Give it a read. Share it where it's helpful. missioalliance.org/finding-r…

Remember this. Was so proud of a fellow @Skyline_Raiders alum that day. Years later, I was living in Marin Co., Ca. Saw @MJGold across a parking lot. Was too nervous to approach him. Instead, like a dork, I shouted, "Skyline!". He looked up. Smiled at me and nodded like a champ.

Goodness. I want to pause on this for a while, take this message with me into a solitary place and return with it in my living. Thank you brother Park.
I’ve been a hospital chaplain now for eight years at hundreds of deathbeds. I want to tell you something I’ve witnessed. Most people, at the end, realize they’ve spent a lot of their life hiding. Sometimes by choice, or because they could not safely choose to be themselves. ➡️

A few days late, but wanted to share the #christmas2022 homily @christcitydc last weekend. As we approach the end of 2022, I want to remember...I want all of us to remember...“Given this world we have, our task is to notice it. And show up”. youtube.com/watch?v=qSUEAgjz…

Henry Nolatubby, a Chickasaw, died for the country aboard the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor on on this day in 1941. He has the sad distinction of being the first of nearly 500 Native American servicemen to make this sacrifice during WW2 #PearlHarborDay

Anyone else hear @junior_miller throwing shade @Skyline_Raiders this morning on @dfwticket? "I don't like the Detroit Lions uniforms. They look like Skyline". @SKYLINEfb y'all letting that slide?

On Sunday @christcitydc I preach on following #Jesus, #disappointment and how sometimes things don't go the way you imagine. Quoted @CCT4aNewCity and @brinicio and thought about making a #tiktok but decided otherwise. youtube.com/watch?v=_kKHTC3w…

Buddy Harrison, a fixture in the D.C. boxing community, was shot and killed on Saturday. He helped people in and out of the ring. Tonight, I caught up with a father and son who trained with Buddy for more than a decade to get a sense of the impact he had. dcnewsnow.com/news/community…

I'm gutted by this. Buddy was a gift to the city and looked to make DC a better place through investing in young people through boxing. Praying for the Harrison family , especially Dusty who is slated to fight in a few days and the entire Old School Boxing family.
Buddy Harrison, father of DC boxer Dusty Harrison, was shot and killed in front of his home in SE DC earlier today. Below is a post on his Facebook page yesterday.

So good seeing you my friend! Thanks for stopping by. Grateful for you.
#HStreetFestival is a local DC festival held every fall not too far from our house. It's a great time to learn about local businesses and orgs, eat good food, listen to music and run into friends. Fun times.

It has taken 233 years for the U.S. Congress to be fully represented by this country’s indigenous peoples. Tonight, a Native American, a Native Alaskan & a Native Hawaiian are sitting members of the people’s House. Welcome U.S. Representative Peltola to the 117th Congress! 🤙🏽
