Holland: We're going to amend until the monster trucks roll in! #UMCGC #GC2019

Angels of the Lord come in many forms. Sometimes just a number: 6 and 30. #umcgc #gc2019 #umc

Genesis tells us that Adam and Eve were naked and unashamed UNTIL THEY LISTENED TO A SNAKE. In other words, shame doesn’t originate from God’s voice. Shame originates from voices who say they are speaking for God, and that’s different. #shamelessbook

Would love to see some of the Calls to Worship, hymns, and prayers that are being used/written for this first Sunday after #GC2019 #umcgc to affirm our LGBTQ+ community. Shower me with bulletin photos!

Interview with yours truly about my book Entangled!

You have to pay something back so that everyone gets a chance. If we put a 2% tax on the wealthiest families in the country, we can have universal Pre-K, universal free college, knock back student loan debt for 95% of Americans—and still have a trillion dollars leftover.

Check out the latest review of Entangled from @broke_historian, American Academy of Religion, Reading Religion readingreligion.org/books/entangled

My first humorous (wrong) answer from a student. #AmRelHist

#OnThisDay 147 yrs ago-May 10, 1872-the Equal Rights Party nominated Victoria Woodhull for President of the United States. She was the first woman nominated to run for POTUS. Her running mate? Frederick Douglass. Sounds like a pretty good ticket to us. #twitterstorians

Article Quest: 1/Bible women, bodies, and labels of "deviant" or "criminal" (Eve, Mary Mag? Virgin Mary? others?) 2/Evangelical purity and women's enjoyment of body as "deviant" or "criminal"? 3/Religion, reproductive rights, and bodily autonomy as "criminal" or "deviant." #AmRel

Book search for Criminal Minds/Bodies:Narratives of Gender, Crime, and Deviancy (teaching as a Religion Prof). Nadia Bolz-Weber, picked up Shameless, 5 pages in, and this is going on the syllabus now! It's such a necessary balance to the biblical narrative that many hear. TIA!

As a bonding experience, all freshmen are asked to bring a copy of their favorite childhood book 📚 to campus where they write 📝 a message inside to be delivered to local elementary schools! Today, #HPU2023 participated in this #HPUTradition! #HPU365 #HPUMoveIn

Best textbook for Intro to Christianity (freshman level)? Haven't found one I like yet after teaching this course twice.

Dear CNN and others, make your "Go" apps free for the next month or two so that the public can stay up to date with the latest during this pandemic. Ten minutes is enough for a normal day (and keeps me sane) but not now. Thx!

You might have heard the word "Comity Agreement" in the context of Wesleyan Covenant Association churches trying to skirt the #UMC Trust Clause. Thankfully, a Historian details why that is a serious misuse of a paragraph. Share with your conference leaders! hackingchristianity.net/2022/05/what-i… #wca #gmchurch
