Where's the Good Stuff this week?
Friday 7/04/25 roundup of what I've discovered on Substack
‘Good Stuff’ = blog posts I’ve read this week that inspired, educated, entertained, or moved me.
I subscribe to almost 250 newsletters on Substack!!
I’m not saying I read that many, but if your writing shows up in my inbox, it gets at least a scan from me.
And I can’t help sharing the best of what I’m reading with you, too!
Here’s this week’s roundup:
God stuff
Two of my favorite topics about which to ponder the divine: language and AI. Not unrelated to each other, not unrelated to our relationship with God…
‘Learning the Language: From Mine Shafts to M.Divs and Why We All End up Speaking in Code’, by
. ‘How do you know who you are beyond the words?’‘Why ChatGPT Might Not Be Sinful But It Is Definitely Sad and Kind of Lame’ by
‘We wouldn’t outsource prayer or fasting – so why is outsourcing research any more attractive?’
Church stuff
‘Everything went wrong at church’ by
. At least he didn’t burn the church down…‘What the Southern Baptists Got Right (Sort Of)’ by
It’s really about the ordination of women! And a podcast about ‘the Philadelphia Eleven’, and a movie made about them.
Other stuff
‘I just did therapy in public,’ by
. Actually, he just did theology. Very interesting.
I wrote a couple of things, too!
‘Nothing forms community like church.’ The last thing I ever said to her was ‘I love you.’
‘What if you could train your soul?’ ‘How I started thinking about a ‘gym for your soul’.
Finally…
Thanks so much for including me!!! I appreciate your work so much.
