In this house, we do philosophy in the kitchen, theology in the bedroom, and mysticism in the garden. As God intended.

i suppose that one of my most unpopular opinions is that christianity - in it’s most liberating & progressive forms - does require a lifelong commitment to self-sacrifice. you are called, like Christ, to burn yourself in order to keep others warm.

i’m not a fan of the modern idea of “cheap grace,” which scoffs at things like undeserved forgiveness. you are called to forgive the worst people you know, even if it takes a lifetime.

while grace is abundant, free, and gentle - we find the example of Christ condescending himself to live among the “least of these,” suffering and dying - and calling his followers to do the same.

christ’s mercy never waned for those followers who walked away, but many did walk away once the calling became difficult.

while a lot of the language of “discipline” and “discipleship” gets misapplied by conservative christians to tie heavy burdens onto others, i think it’s a mistake as a progressive/leftist believers to ignore the fact that following Christ can certainly require intense levels of personal discomfort and difficult work.

yet, we don’t suffer alone.

I’m a lesbian and a Catholic which means the only man I’ll ever marry is Jesus Christ the Son of God Bridegroom to the Church and I eat his literal flesh and drink his actual blood every week through the transubstantiated Eucharist in remembrance of when he was here on earth and looking forward to when he will come back

“You just need the right man” I found him. It’s Jesus. We’re one flesh now. Yeah he died for my sins and in doing so united me to the creator God Almighty. He was dressed up for the occasion and everything. He kissed me on the forehead and led me to my girlfriend and said go love her as I loved you be happy. My husband is seated at the right hand of God from which he will come to judge the living and the dead if you care. Yeah I tried to pray the gay away but he cupped my face in his hands and said “there is nothing about you that needs to be fixed. You are holy as I am holy.” He had me nail my internalized homophobia to the cross and he carried it for me. The Holy Spirit gave me the rizz to flirt with my girlfriend when we met well enough that she fell in love with me and when we get married and she’s my wife I’m going to thank my husband Jesus Christ.

Gay Girl Prayers

Emily Austin

A collection of poetry reclaiming Catholic prayers and biblical passages to empower girls, women, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community.

The extreme level of sass in Emily Austin's Gay Girl Prayers does not mean that this collection is irreverent. On the contrary, in rewriting Bible verses to affirm and uplift queer, feminist, and trans realities, Austin invites readers into a giddy celebration of difference and a tender appreciation for the lives and perspectives of "strange women."

Packed with zingy one liners, sexual innuendo, self-respect, U-Hauling, and painfully earnest declarations of love, this is gayness at its best, harnessed to a higher purpose and ready to fight the powers that be.

So many people use that one (most likely mistranslated) Bible verse to condemn queerness that they forget this one:

Romans 13:10: Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

St. Jude

the patron Saint of Lost causes.

Come to my assistance this day and pray for me to the Lord our God in my time of need. I feel hopeless and helpless in my journey, though I know that God is good. I have done all that I could and I pray that it be enough to get by. I don't pray to be the greatest, I pray that I may grow successfully in God's world and God's word. That I may have hope that God's will be my will. St. Jude pray for me.
