Jim Putnam Quote

Jesus’ mission is not to make converts, and it never has been. His mission is to make disciples. – Jim Putnam

I love talking to rabbis as a recent conversion student because the interaction goes something like, "you're converting? Now?! At this time, at this moment in history?!". And they always talk about this influx of jewish convert students they've seen recently, and it's like...

There's this level of respect I get from rabbis for converting at this point in time, but... Has there ever been a good time to be a jew in the last thousand years or so plus? I'm imagining that rabbis and jews in general back in 1492, back in 1290, back in 1349 would have said the exact same thing. So, really, there is only a time to be a jew. Maybe it's not a "good" time, yes, but it is a time. And to me, that's good enough

Hello, my beloved people. My sims and tumblr break is taking longer that I wanted. It seems that this year is very tough for me in terms of mental stability. Definitely the worst since six years minimum. I'm going on vacation for two weeks and I strongly hope that the change of environment will clear up my head at least a little. When I come back, I want to start simming again. Maybe I will have some new ideas! I really miss all of you. I can only imagine how many wonderful things I am missing and as a follower, I'm sorry. Stay safe everyone and happy simming! I hope to reach out to you soon ♥

what are your thoughts on your religion stealing every single one of its holidays from pagans? xo

That in order to relieve themselves of guilt and discomfort, white people create and believe narratives that deprive their European ancestors of any autonomy whatsoever. Casting their ancestors as victims of the church rather than active participants.

We are here for some light Edwin torture today. I would like to call this torture, "Baby's first crush"

It was one thing to finally acknowledge that he is attracted to men, and Charles in particular. It is in fact one thing to have confessed his love. It is another entirely to sit with what that means. He will hear a love song, and suddenly that song is entirely about Charles. It's even worse if Charles is around when he hears said song. Edwin didn't realise just how much love and romance is EVERYWHERE until he realised his own feelings, but suddenly its like he's being blasted from all sides by neon signs that say "YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH CHARLES ROWLAND!" It is very distracting.

He tries to remind himself that Charles is in fact a flawed human ghost and not perfect. This does not go to planned. He tells himself that Charles is untidy. Then he remembers that Charles specifically made and mastered a spelled bag to keep their space neat, and Edwin's books on hand. He reminds himself that Charles is impulsive. Then he remembers how many times that impulsive nature has been used to put Charles between danger and Edwin. Okay but Charles is an outrageous flirt! He has to start acknowledging that some of that flirtation is in fact directed at him...regularly. There is no winning.

At some point he let's out a frustrated yell as his thoughts once again derail to Charles. Charles immediately runs into the room ready to fight the danger, and damn it Charles, Edwin needs you to not be chivalrous for 10 minutes! He tries to just dismiss it as a spider that startled him. Charles doesn't miss a beat. He grabs a jar and is now on the hunt for the nonexistent spider cuz now he knows why Edwin would be scared of them.

Edwin is ready to put his head through the desk. Why does his crush have to be his perfect man??
