I have indeed shifted to Presbyterian fellowship and it’s been working out for me. Worshipped with a small town congregation through the Easter season while caring for my recovering father. Pre-dominion building!

It says so much that I was about to readily accept this as fact.

OCD hit me when I was four years old, and it is truly such a wild and weird condition to live with. Group therapy saved me and turned my life right around. It's honestly critical to get help!

Too much corruption in leadership. Too much abandonment of Anglican patrimony or else outright paganism. I hope I'm wrong! I pray very much that I'm reading my parish's crisis too broadly! But I don't think I am.

Being as vague as I can, I think the future of my parish is either in the Anglican Diocese of Canada, or else shifting to another denomination entirely. It pains me as a gay man, but I'd rather we go ADoC than stay in the ACoC. I think the bell has tolled for the ACoC.

I've been worshipping with a Reformed (but not confessional) Baptist congregation while my parish is in tumult, and it's been edifying. It has softened my heart to other members of Christ's Body. Denomination smugness is not a fruit of the Spirit, and it's good to remember there's much I don't know.

uncontrollable impulse to marathon read the holy Scriptures solidarity 🤝

Sorry to pop culture post, but it WOULD be interesting if Severance was making a narrative connection between the Confessing Church vs the Reich Church wrt the bad Lutheran theology. Instead of the writers maybe googling “LGBT friendly church” and just going with the first they saw.

make me ready, Lord, for whatever

God’s providence that I shifted from Anglo-Catholic to Reformed, and irenic to the degree I’m praying with a Presby liturgy and meeting with Baptist pastors for breakfast right when my parish goes to shambles. A corrupt bishop may have killed my faith just a year ago.

Blessèd Septuagesima! Time to start thinking and praying about how you're going to spend Lententide. I've ordered Bread and Wine: Readings for Lent and Easter to meditate on this year. I'll be giving up alcohol, chips, chocolate, and coffee. I'm not giving up tea, though 😅

A bishop should not have a $200k salary, and he should not be able to reorganize parishes at his whimsy because they can afford their own operation but cannot afford to help pay his exorbitant livelihood. Not that I’m speaking about my own bishop of course, should him or his lackeys read this 💅

the Québec film industry is absolute 🔥

This is my early St. Valentine’s Day gift my friend thoughtfully picked from my wish list! The real way to my heart.
