"Christians learn more deeply and truly of Jesus in the Eucharist as nowhere else because here the living Christ takes the matter of his death and our betrayal and sets them forth as the bread of heaven, the food of angels." — Kate Sonderegger
I started over in Twitter as an experiment. Here’s my latest thread. Go follow @ChrisMcalilly, if you want more thread like this…
Replying to @RevBeccaStevens

Over the last 25 years, she has built a multi-million dollar justice social enterprise for women survivors of trafficking, addiction and prostitution.
This is a thread what she did and how she did it.

Follow @ChrisMcalilly for the new stuff.
Here's a thread on the gospel in seven words.
It includes a cuss word said by one of the finest Christians Mississippi ever produced.

This account will stay up, but I'm starting over on Twitter.
In 2011, I didn't have a clear idea of how I wanted to use social media.
Now, I do.
I'll be writing about faith & work, discernment & ancient wisdom, hope & imagination.

A Prayer for the First Day of School
Most gracious God,
I cannot believe it is the first day of school.
We offer you our excitement, our anticipation, our hope!
We offer you our fears.
We didn’t want to do it this way again,
in a global pandemic.
We acknowledge our weariness.
Thank you for all the ways you have been with our children as they grow in mind, body, and soul.
Give us grace through this transition.
Give us grace with ourselves, our children,
our teachers, our schools.
We acknowledge our desire to make it perfect
for our kids, for ourselves.
We acknowledge our inability to do so.
If you struggle with waiting read this:

I am fascinated by faith stories.
Particularly, the stories of folks transitioning from adolescence into emerging adulthood.
Here are a series of questions that I’m asking college students and recent graduates these days:
If you could write a letter to your 17-year-old self about your faith journey, what would you say?
