Christianity is rendered impotent when reduced to a system of ideas
Like the early church, we should be in the business of Spirit-led, Scripture-guided, fruit-bearing formation and missional action
I don’t deviate from Christian traditional casually
That said, don’t tell me the same people that oppressed women, upheld the institution of slavery and corrupted themselves with power for the better part of 2k years somehow got a cumulative 4.0 on theology
When my wife and I moved out of state it upset a number of people

turned out to be a metaphor for leaving evangelicalism.
I can’t help but question the competency of any pastor who—in a world of injustice, inequity and inhospitality—prioritizes telling women how they ought to dress.
Today I visited my friend, an older man from church with dementia. He doesn’t remember that an aggressive brain tumor is weeks or even days away from taking his life. He said, “when I get better we’re going out for Chinese food.”
I like the way he thinks.
There are 2 kinds of Christians:
Those who prioritize making their cultural preferences more visible
and those who prioritize making the way of Jesus more visible
Just did a Good Friday service at our town’s beautiful Catholic Church. At least 5 Protestant denominations were represented: Presbyterian, Episcopal, Congregationalist, Disciples of Christ, non-denom…
Zero arguments, no one was called a heretic,
it was super unsettling.
