All posts by Tony Burgess

Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

Love Is Love

This billboard is near my church and it makes a serious statement. Love should not be grounds for termination of employment. LGBTQ folks still face discrimination and it’s wrong.

Writing A Blog

I thought about writing a book once but then I realized I don’t read a great deal of them so I decided to write a blog…yeah a blog works for me. Won’t make much money but its all about the fun right?

Something About Freaks and Geeks

Freaks and geeks are in the circus that is life. They are the not the side show but the main attraction. Home is in the center ring under the big top wherever that might be in their lives. The thing about it is that they are not everyday, hum-drum, average, no they are much more. God gave them gifts that are so special and when used they can change the world. That freak and that geek is a human with a heart that is big and a soul that is deeper than any ocean. You too might just be one without even knowing it.

Movies Outdoors At Church

Watching The Greatest Showman outdoors at church tonight. It’s something cool St. Peter’s Episcopal Church is doing to bring the congregation together as family.

Thoughtful Friday Friends

Be mindful of those in need and in peril. May you find solace and comfort in simple things. Love your neighbor and yourself while you are at it. Make this a good Friday and be ready for a good weekend my friends. Love and peace to you all.
