#SundaySchool



Today's #SundaySchool teacher is Nadia Bolz-Weber. Nadia is an ordained Lutheran (ELCA) pastor of a church in Denver, Colorado. She is covered in tattoos, is a former drug addict, and loves Jesus but cusses a little. She's the author of three books (so far, I'm sure more will happen down the road): Salvation on the Small Screen: 24 Hours of Christian Television, Pastrix: The Cranky, Beautiful Faith of a Sinner & Saint, and Accidental Saints: Finding God in All the Wrong People.

She's worth giving a listen to - I hope you are challenged and blessed!

Here's Nadia talking about the cross:


And here's Nadia from a few years ago speaking at an ELCA Youth Gathering.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment.
