@SirRobertHowell As far as I know I’m your only connection to CL, which would mean that any narrative you’d engaged in before this tweet would have had to include me and our conversations. You’re right, I made an inference. I’m happy to be wrong.

[David Godwin @DavidGodwn]

@SirRobertHowell I did. As you said, the word “now” denotes time in a particular narrative. It seemed as if your tweet affirmed a narrative about my church that you’d engaged in prior to the tweet. It’s exactly because of our previous conversations that I was especially hurt by it.

[David Godwin @DavidGodwn]

@SirRobertHowell The “now” implies more than just a general inquiry but an affirmation of the tweet’s slanderous accusation. It implies you are aware of a history of such teaching. So, no it isn’t acceptable... Unless your intention was to affirm the accusation.

@SirRobertHowell @anahnemoo @CityLifeVA @FredMichaux @justinwhiteVA @SirRobertHowell I'm saddened this, bro. What has our church done in your eyes to deserve such slander? I knew we represented different perspectives, but I always regarded you as a brother in Christ.

@NYTmag How can I get my hands on a physical copy of the #1619Project? Been scouring the Internet, can’t find a place to order.

If Exodus was only about getting out of Egypt, we wouldn’t have the final 25 chapters. But it isn’t just about getting OUT of Egypt. It’s about getting TO Sinai. Not just freedom- but freedom found in obedience under the right master.

Is it that hard to understand that if it benefits the rich and powerful while making life more difficult for the poor and vulnerable, it contradicts everything Jesus taught?

@justinwhiteVA I love you. 😂

Once you realize that everything in creation is a metaphor for something true about God then you understand that the purpose of life is not pleasure, not power, but understanding.

Feel like I’ve already been to church this morning... Megan’s pastor went innnnnn! #RoyalWedding #PreachPreacha! #TheyWontReady😂

There are no extras in the story of God. He has a part for EVERYONE to play. @FredMichaux @CityLifeVA

Most people think Christianity is just about morality... But it’s also about PURPOSE. @FredMichaux @CityLifeVA #directionalliving

@therealjj26 The world isn't ready for me to reveal my true identity.

[David Godwin @DavidGodwn]

Identity is formed in community. You cannot find yourself by yourself.

Everybody else in the world mourning the loss of #FixerUpper. Meanwhile, Season 4 just dropped on Hulu! 🙌🏽 Far as I’m concerned these are brand new episodes. And I have at least two more years with the Gaines’s. 🤗

We not only need a theology about the poor but FROM the poor... Righteousness does not equal upward mobility of social status. @AmIshoBaraka #TheGentrificationOfChristianity
