after nearly 15 years and over 26,000 tweets, I’m stepping away from Twitter. the actions of the new owner last fall and this winter have only confirmed my slow drift away from this place. I’ll be around on Mastodon @andyjames@theatl.social for those who make their way there.

I won’t say much about the business of #ga225, but as one on COGA who was very involved in getting this before the Assembly, I am very grateful to see this move forward!

What sad news… Jim was a pillar of the church and a deeply respected friend and colleague. It was a joy to work with him along the journey.
We are so sad to hear about the passing of Rev. Dr. Jim Reese, who served as a minister of specialized interpretation for the Foundation until 2019. We shared this video in February of Jim and his beloved wife, Neola ❤️
Please join us in prayers of thanksgiving for his ministry.

After 5½ wonderful years in New Hope, God is calling me to something new. Pending final approval on May 3, I will be the next Stated Clerk of the Presbytery of Greater Atlanta. I will miss NC, but I am excited to begin this next chapter with amazing people in a great city!

I hear a lot about Zoom funerals from pastors. here’s one take on them from the pew.
A Zoom funeral might be better than an in-person one. Certainly, it is no less “real.” slate.trib.al/jP0eAsf

There’s a long history of faith communities adapting when they can’t access their houses of worship. In this pod extra, we explore the historical precedent for Zoom seders and online prayer services: wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm…
I finished my work on this project when the congregation closed earlier this year, but I am no less joyful to see this good work take this next step.
The church held its final service last spring, nearly a century after it was formed and after almost 65 years in its current home. trib.al/68hiOzk

dear air travelers: there is almost no reason that you should have a conversation on speakerphone in the airport, on the plane, or in pretty much any public place. your phone came with headphones for a reason. please use them! thank you!

a great overview of a great church, pastored by a dear friend and colleague in NYC… so grateful for their faithful witness! #pcusa
A Harlem church has its roots back to 1821, when its mother church was the first African American Presbyterian Church in New York City.
Today, it looks at its abolitionist history and continues that struggle for freedom and justice. #HarlemWeek
