Part of being invited to the table is the decision to attend. There will be a future post about the importance of the RSVP (I have feelings about it), but this week, I am wandering through my online world and highlighting five blogs, posts, projects, and/or people who are taking their seats.
1. The Mudroom is one of my new favorite places on the Internet. It’s a collaborative blog that launched in February. Their vision says it all – “make room for people.” And they do it beautifully.
2. I could fangirl about Reverend Wil Gafney all day. Her words are rich. I was searching for a quote from her post entitled The Color Purple: A Lenten Sermon, but all of it is too good to miss.
3. I am currently taking Jamie Wright Bagley‘s Heart of Prayer course. It’s a guide through praying the hours, and it has infused my last couple of weeks with a renewed confidence in approaching God. Jamie also has a free poetry e-book that I think you need. I love it (and her).
4. I have been following (or more accurately, lurking, as I don’t know if I have ever left a comment) Lisa Bartelt’s blog for a while, and this post is one of the reasons why. I love her passion for justice.
5. This post by Huda Alawa. It reads like an honest prayer.
There are so many people to hear from. Who are some of the voices that you love?*
*It’s okay if it’s your own. It’s better than okay. It’s taking your seat.
Thanks for the mention! So glad you’re lurking and finding something valuable in my words. 🙂 Great to “meet” you.
It’s good to “meet” you, too! 🙂
The decision to attend! Oh, yes. Why is that so hard sometimes? Why does it take a lifetime to figure out sometimes? I’m so glad you’re creating space. And I love you, too. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome! Thanks for reading. 🙂
