Gardens grow in ways that are mutually supportive and connected. That’s an underground lesson for pastors, writes @kleinbeck, the director of the Thriving in Ministry Coordination Program at Leadership Education at @DukeDivinity. faithandleadership.com/plant…

According to @stlpublicradio, there were SEVEN security officers inside the St. Louis school, but the gunman was still able to bring a long gun to the third floor where he murdered two people and wounded seven others.
It’s the fucking guns.
Alaina Kleinbeck retweeted
The school in St. Louis had metal detectors. Police said the doors were locked. There were armed guards inside the school.
Two people are dead.
Republicans will tell you the solution is somehow more guns. On Nov 8, you need to tell them they’re full of shit.
I did more "Instagram research" for my latest @faithleadership essay than I can justify.
From self-care to relationships with similar others, there are off-the-bike lessons to be learned from Peloton instructors, writes @kleinbeck, the director of the Thriving in Ministry Coordination Program at Leadership Education at @DukeDivinity. lght.ly/k6ica0i

The tragedies of the world provoke understandable rage. But focusing on existential gratitude & connection creates space for transformation, says @kleinbeck, director of the Thriving in Ministry Coordination Program at @DukeDivinity's Leadership Education. lght.ly/bndflbl
I’ve got a new @faithleadership essay up about rage, communal faith, healing practices, and my garden. faithandleadership.com/growi…

My letter in today's @nytimes to @Walmart CEO Doug McMillon:
"What happened over the weekend was not your fault — but it is your moral responsibility to see that it stops."

Just one day after Thanksgiving, Samuel Oliver-Bruno was abruptly arrested by ICE during a visit to the immigration office to check on his status. His arrest is alarming & inappropriate. I’m doing everything in my power to keep the family together while his case is adjudicated.
Alaina Kleinbeck retweeted
Yesterday, ICE separated a family, lied to preachers & assaulted a whole community. This abuse of power violates all of us & demands moral resistance. Thread from @wilsonhartgrove
In Durham, NC, Jose Chicas & Samuel Oliver-Bruno have led our community in learning what it means to be sanctuary when federal immigration enforcement is driven by the politics of fear. Today, our whole community was attacked by ICE. wral.com/dozens-arrested-aft…

Grateful for these moral witnesses who circled the van ICE used to take this husband & father away.
"The rage I witness all around me is a deep lament that this world is not as it could or should be. Jesus’ capacity to hold rage and kindness together point me toward a way of being that goes beyond the readily available cultural examples of rage." faithandleadership.com/alain…

A wise and important read from .@kleinbeck @faithleadership -- "Christian Accountability in a #MeToo World." It's this week's Alban Weekly cover story. #church #accountability #congregation ow.ly/hbKi30m7gQl
