There is only one man,
whose courage is forever,
Whose effectiveness increases with time.
There is only one man
Who never ages
Whose hour is forever.
He is your beloved!
His courage is a lesson for all who suffer.
His daring is a challenge to every man.
His works on the cross
So powerful that moves
Beyond
earth to heaven,
Time to eternity.
He is your beloved,
The love that you never see
the kindness that you never imagine
he is there with you
whereever you are.
No words, no voices,
No sounds that come across
in your eardrums
but the whisper is in the heart
"Here I am,
Hold me close to your heart
keep me near your instinct."

Letter to our Queer & Trans Youth
Hey, you. I thought I’d start this letter by telling you a little about myself, just so you know who you’re dealing with. I’m an emotional dad, father to three amazing kids who we met through the foster care system, and whose presence in our lives has really transformed my sense of responsibility to the communities that surround us. The connections we’ve made with one another, with our extended families, and with the communities where we live and look for belonging have catapulted us into this whirlwind of emotional tumult which, while not easy by any stretch of the measure, has also been remarkably healing. I realize ours is really only a one-sided chosen family, since our kids didn’t get to choose to live here, but I’d like to think that they did choose to let us love them, which allowed them to grow to love us. And I think that’s where I want to go with this letter- to a place where you can find belonging and healing- even if the pathway there may be peppered with some emotional tumult.
