Happy 133rd Birthday to theologian Reinhold Niebuhr, author of these famous words:
God, give us grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
Courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other.

Words of wisdom from Reinhold Niebuhr on his 133rd Birthday

"If you want to believe in God, you have to divorce yourself from the kind of immoral nationalism which laughs at humanity." -Reinhold Niebuhr, 1926-27 YMCA National Student Conference

In honor of Reinhold Niebuhr's birthday, a thread on one of his home towns.
John Schmalzbauer@OzarksWatcher
Reinhold Niebuhr slept here, when his father Gustave served as pastor of St. John Evangelical Church and the administrator of the Deaconess Home and Hospital in Lincoln, Illinois. Now it's an empty lot.

Enjoyed speaking with journalist Cornelia Powers about the world of college chaplaincy.
The Atlantic@TheAtlantic
College students may be growing less religious, but they still crave a sense of belonging, meaning, and purpose. To find it, many are turning to college chaplains. Cornelia Powers reports on the spiritual leaders thriving on secular campuses: theatlantic.com/family/archive…

@sgfcitizen The Council of Churches of the Ozarks emerged in a particular social moment, exemplified by @CCOzarks leader Dorsey Levell's response to the assassination of Dr. King.

The Council of Churches of the Ozarks, a faith-based nonprofit with various services and programs, is changing its name to Crosslines Community Outreach. Learn more: sgfcitizen.org/government/soc…

As the Council of Churches of the Ozarks changes its name to Crosslines Community Outreach, a reminder of the @CCOzarks legacy of ecumenical social activism.
John Schmalzbauer@OzarksWatcher
At a time when Springfield still struggles to address the needs of the unhoused, it is good to remember the voices of leaders like the Rev. Dorsey Levell, the late great head of the @CCOzarks.

"No one goes to the Christmas Eve service for the sermon. They go for the music. Preaching cannot convey the deep meaning of this night. Only the hymns can do that."

Looking forward to reading Tim Larsen's new collection of Christmas stories from @MoodyPublishers. Tim was our fearless leader and editor on The Oxford Handbook of Christmas, but it didn't come with cocoa and a mug.

@gretalcross Congratulations! Much deserved. A Great honor for you and for Springfield journalism. Those of us who were part of the Jordan Creek underground tour can say that we knew a future National Trending Reporter.
