Affirming.
Challenging.
Inclusive.
Expansive.
Welcome to a website of free-to-use liturgy, poetry, and hymns oriented towards the liberation of all God’s good, embodied Creation.
To that end, language for human beings is inclusive (e.g. no use of “brothers and sisters” without including nonbinary “siblings”) and uplifts particular oppressed peoples (with an emphasis on queer and disabled persons)…
…while language for the Divine is expansive, employing a diversity of imagery and pronouns in order to honor God’s infinity and celebrate the Mystery glimpsed in each member of the Imago Dei.
I welcome correction, conversation, and collaboration. Together, let us worship the One who explodes our expectations and makes a home among the exploited and despised.

Do we supersede the Jewish people as God’s chosen people? (Spoiler: hell no!) Taking these passages together, we can paint a picture…
