Verse of the day But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. - Ephesians 2:13 Voice of the day We follow a God who transgressed boundaries of human and divine, spiritual and material; the joy of a promiscuous and prodigal invitation into the love of God and the love of self. - Tonetta Landis-Aina, “Black, Butch, Queer — and Baptized Into God's Scandalous Love” Prayer of the day Thank you for transgressing all boundaries to bring us near, inviting us into the overflowing joy of your love for both you and ourselves.
