The defunct elevator was left permanently open and stuffed with piles of all the least-loved books, which I could buy for $1 each if I brought enough lemonade stand money

I read this in Marilynne Robinson's "When I was a child I read books," and had to write it down: "The shrinking of imaginative identification which allows such things as shared humanity to be forgotten always begins at home." So much to digest there.

My takeaway from reading the replies to this tweet (all of them) is that not one person said 3s were their favorite, besides those who were 3s themselves. Break our vain little hearts, why dontcha

9 years ago we learned how to blacksmith. Build habits that require community in 2022. Habits that connect to creation. Work with nature and relationships nature for a harvest bigger than you can handle by yourself. Join in a rhythm with a plow.

We must not cultivate warring men because strength can serve evil as easily as it does goodness. Instead, we must cultivate men who love God & love their neighbors as themselves. And when the time comes, this love will give them the courage & wisdom they need to resist evil.

The last 5 days, I’ve traveled through Warsaw & Krakow & some smaller border towns in Poland, and the response of churches all across 🇵🇱 to 🇺🇦 is, in an inadequate word, incredible. Every pastor I’ve met tells me they don’t know of any church that’s not involved in some way.
