Perhaps not all the time, but many times, I think the Church in Canada has forgotten that the crescendo of the New Testament is that God is love.
This demands more uncertainty, more humility and more community, not less.
If you're currently unhappy & frustrated with heathcare, education, many aspects of housing and transit, here's your chance to make a change.
We the people hold the power. Don't let this snap election, that Ontario didn't want, hold you back from voting #OntarioVotes2025
No matter how you vote, left, right or centre, feels like the right time to come together in unity as Canadians.
I'm praying for peace where there is anxiety, a growing sense of unity and stability and the beauty of community.

@MeaghanMartin_ Ah man, I'm bummed to see you post something like this, in a time like this, as a current, or previous Ontario PC employee, but also as a strong advocate in the Waterloo Region.

@JoashPThomas Shane has offered a consistent witness and clarion call for non-violence for a decade (or more?). He calls it out on all sides. I don't get what Cosper is on about with all of this π€·
@MattThiessenNT It will be fascinating to see the progress of Richards change of heart from his previous book on moral vision. I wonder if this book will cause issues for Christopher and Fuller? Thanks for finding this.
We can be Christians today in only two ways, through prayer and in doing justice among human beings. All Christian thinking, talking, and organizing must be born anew, out of that prayer and action.
