I SO love Hebrews. I can’t really say why. But it is wonderful. I have thought so since I was 11 years old.

You know how some verses sing? Like most of Isaiah? It is customary in the Episcopal Church (and the Catholic) to have lay people read the reading from the OT and the Letters. A deacon or a priest reads from the Gospels.

So when I was (as I thought) a priest in the Episcopal Church I never got to read Isaiah 40 or 55, or any of the Epistles. And I simply LOVE them!

So I’m happy to be a lay-d00d. I get to read the most wonderful readings!

If I were dying in a monastery, I would ask thay Hebrews be read to me as I died.

I’m tired of arguing. I want to sit and pray with the brothers God has given me in Jesus and share in the joy of his extravagant love.

Don’t argue. Rejoice. His truth will endure forever.

Dear brother Mad Dawg—how did you get so wise so soon?

Praise God!

Psalm 133:1

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
