    Exile or Embrace , Mahon Siler. Not so much for LGBT as for those who need to hear stories and have no one to tell them. It’s about how a congregation worked through the process of how (and whether) to welcome gay people.

    James Alison’s Faith Beyond Resentment is equally important. I wonder if the chapter on the dynamics of exclusion shouldn’t be required reading for all Christians.

    It made my Christmas Day to see the Young Church streaming down the road all dressed up in their Nativity gear, all ready to retell the story for the rest of us. Lots and lots of Magi and angels this year. Fewer shepherds, though they did a good job. I spotted one of the angels…
