Transphobia is a disease of the Spirit.
Praying that we usher in Healing of transphobia inflicted against ourselves and others. Praying that we Heal collectively, spiritually, politically, mentally, in our words, thoughts, and deeds. Amen. #RamadanMubarak ☪️

The moment consent is broken is the moment something other than God is at hand. The realm of broken consent includes things we may pretend are not extreme. In truth, all acts of broken consent lead to death of spirit, joy, truth, justice, love… Society desensitizes our consent alarms. We are taught to ignore our bodies and spirits. The failure to teach this is intentional. Consent isn't taught often, because then we would act in our Divine Authority over this realm. We have spiritual Authority over the realm of broken consent. To be clear, broken consent is never the victim's fault. The point is, consent has been heavily neglected in our communities as a whole (religious spaces included). March 8, 2023
As Jesus got closer to his ultimate test, his friendships became brittle. The very people he kept close to him, the ones that saw his miracles up front, and even watched the heavens part...Those same friends slept while he prayed over his life. They deserted him. They denied him. They betrayed him. What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and grieves to bear... We should consider how we can be better friends to Jesus. How can we pour into people doing Divine work? How can we sacrifice for those whose constant sacrifices go unnoticed? March 1, 2023
Jesus says this to remind us that a Divine Invitation still takes Love to be fulfilled. Having children is not the same as Parenting. Having a congregation is not the same as Preaching. Having students is not the same as Teaching. February 25, 2023
Queer Freedom is not the same as Trans Freedom, and we need to be specific when we are evoking Trans Wisdom. It is okay to say Trans. Honestly. We cis people really need to sit with that. Queer or not. God gave me the name Queer Ministry not to solely serve Queer people, but because I'm evoking the Spirit of Queerness in everything I do. But notice in my writing, I have to specifically say Trans People, Trans Wisdom, Trans Ancestors. I am still learning to be obedient to the Spirit of Transness. It's a learned behavior because its been so denied in society. We need to listen and care for Trans People. We need to get real comfortable calling on the Spirit of Transness. Soon! February 23, 2023
We place limits on God's love based on our standards of approval. This hierarchy is the opposite of Heaven's. We don't see God as infinite Love and Power. We deny people from God to glorify ourselves. By denying God's love to others, we demand to be first to God's Glory. We push over God in human condition. We believe we are eager to greet God, yet we stomp all over God's loved ones to get to Heaven's door. People asked Jesus how to sit at the right hand of God. Why are we so limited on what God is? How can you sit "Next" to God without sitting next to those who God loves? Why do we cling to hierarchy even in Heaven? Then there's this "first and last" narrative. Why does it matter if I'm first or last if my destination is the Glory of God? I don't mind the wait. I will gladly wait while others are walking into glory. These are my loved ones here!

It is anti-Black to worship the violence committed against Jesus, rather than his living legacy. Do not ignore the Indigenous African Practices Jesus used to be close with God and to do their Divine Work. Jesus wants us to give away our possessions, to leave our white notions of family and the lives we were told to live. Jesus wants us to be free and to free others. To live in love. To be healed and to heal. To have community. To be fed and to feed. To have joy. Jesus showed radical love and dismantled power structures. While people were in church, Jesus was out healing. While people were arguing, Jesus was teaching. While people were shunning, Jesus was calling. February 21, 2023
Fasting should be personal. It should be joyous. It should be something that adds to your life and regularly revisited. Fasting should reserve space for the universe to move miraculously in your life. Fasting is not a time for your critical inner voice to be in control. This is not a time to nitpick your body, diet, or pleasure. Fasting is a time to allow God to dictate your schedule; remove the unnecessary or the excessive; and usher in a renewal of Love, Hope, Power, Peace. Please Please Please Allow God to dictate your fast. Fasts do not only remove things, they can also add things. Before you remove or add something, ask yourself if the Spirit of Love is being served. Is this integral to your Divine Work? Does it bring joy? February 21, 2023
