Presiding Bishop Yehiel Curry has issued his first in a series of monthly messages that will continue through the end of this year under the title "All Together in One Place."

Each message will share a pastoral word, rooted in Scripture, that witnesses to God’s presence today, our rich theological tradition and the social teaching that connects us.

From legendary travel writer and fellow Lutheran Rick Steves.

Watch Now: The Traveler and the Bishop Talk Politics at Saint Mark’s Cathedral in Seattle

When giving a speech about the fragility of our democracy and our current president…you just can’t give the same talk twice. Things keep unfolding in ways that have even the GOP elephant losing sleep.

About a week ago, I had the privilege of gathering 1,500 concerned neighbors at Saint Mark's Cathedral to hear the latest iteration of my talk on President Trump and American Democracy — and that talk is now available at https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/video/travel-talks/the-traveler-and-american-democracy.

I talked of how history’s screaming at us, why I like to mix blue and red together by wearing a purple shirt, why a bundle of sticks called a “fasces” does not represent fascism without an ax embedded in it, the 20 steps wannabe fascist dictators use to derail their democracies, and more.

And that was just the warm-up act before Lutheran Bishop Shelley Bryan Wee talked about the heresy of Christian Nationalism: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_M_zERsedxE.

If you (like Elvin Bishop) are singing “What the Hell’s Goin’ On” with new lyrics, you’ll find these talks both interesting and inspiring.
