Very excited to share I've just signed a contract with T&T Clark to write a first of its kind introduction to disability theology! My hope is that this will be a real resource for people and help expand the discipline's reach for years to come

She's gonna absolutely wither from the criticism of a Free Church of England bishop, the denomination that's 180+ years old but only has 18 parishes (or 21, depending on how you count them) and, therefore, has about 1 bishop for every 6 churches. They're clearly truth's bulwark🥱

@MadisonPierce I used to work with a priest who went by "Mo. FirstName" but once expressed her agitation that many people called her "Ms. FirstName." I said something like "oh that's just a southernism" but she pointed out that nobody ever called the male priest "Mr." That's stuck with me

Last thing: I don't request my title be used in educational settings because I think I "deserve" it. It provides a reminder that, there, I have a different role and delegated authority related to the subject matter (like "your honor" in a courtroom). Here's a few stories...

About once a year, I like to share this poem about using titles in the classroom. I also heartily recommend the article linked below about how "Untitling" affects minoritized faculty.

@MadisonPierce Dr. Katie Cannon made a point like this in her Intro to Ethics class, reminding us, that even though the institutional culture was more-or-less to just use first names, in practice this applied much more to women/minority scholars than to their white, male peers

@AaronBrianDavis Excuse me! I need Adobe Acrobat to read journal article pdfs. At least carve out an exception for me 😉😂

We have a cover! Excellent work on the design from @wipfandstock, and I'm very pleased to have such kind endorsements from Andrew Torrance (@LogosInst) and Sarah Coakley featured on the back

@thescottbarber Wasn't he ordained by a house church HE planted? That's like one or two steps removed from the sedevacanist guy whose own family elected him pope. He's also been deceptive (or lied, depending on how generous you wanna be) about his educational credentials. Grasping for legitimacy

Can't wait for the Archbishop Nestorious Speaker Series next! Also, of all the things one could say about Bp. Jack's theology, "intellectually rigorous" would be one I'd find hard to say with a straight face

As of yesterday I am now Vicar (Intern) at my church as a part of my ordination process! This is in addition to still being Fellowship Engagement Director & Theologian-in-Residence (and teaching undergrads on the side, and auditing Lutheran studies classes, and so on) 😅

@AaronBrianDavis I’m not gonna lie … if you’re eating Denny’s then the hearse is coming for you.

I saw a hearse in a Denny's parking lot at like 11am today, and that certainly reminded me that I am dust and to dust I shall return

@DanielWHouck I seem to only see it when the algorithm gets fed its dose of viral back-and-forths that don't really go anywhere (e.g., recent atonement spats). I think it's also related to most of the stuff from folks I follow getting locked behind "Following" and seldom being on "For You"

Anyone else feel like there is less theology being discussed on X than there was on Twitter?

It was a joy and privilege to get to study Christian ethics under Dr. Cannon. The only thing I would change is to have had more time with her. It's great to see @Presbyterian continue to honor her legacy this Black History Month pcusa.org/historical-soc…

Some members of UMC ecumenical partners have been uneasy about their move to allow deacons to celebrate the Eucharist. However, what I didn't know until just now is that this has been the standard Moravian practice (albeit for different reasons) for ages! moravian.org/2018/07/orders…
