Because we're grown-ups now, and it's our turn to decide what that means.

In the gospels, you see Jesus get really harsh with those who use religion as a tool of oppression and self serving power.

You don’t see Jesus get harsh with anyone for showing too much forgiveness, giving too much mercy, having too much generosity, or loving others too much.

This was a very encouraging thread.

People over here assuming I'm this theologically super liberal, "assumes all the Bible is a metaphor" guy who has reduced Christianity to a nice idea.

Meanwhile I'm crying b/c I just saw God do a miracle right at the moment I was praying for it.

[Josiah Hawthorne @JosiahHawthorne]

Gender roles are very important.

For example, in the church, men are called to love God and love their neighbor.

Women, however, are called to love God and love their neighbor.

One of the critical things missing in most theological debates is genuine *intellectual curiosity* about our opponent's view and why they hold it. How might things change if we showed such curiosity? My latest: https://t.co/xZ66ndiyCv

Good morning my angels, your timely Sunday reminder that churches are *strictly forbidden* from engaging in partisan speech, supporting political candidates, and/or directing a substantial part of its activities to lobbying — and have been since 1954

I really wish Christians in America would worry a lot less about our nation being Christian and a lot more about our actions being Christlike.

If your version of Christianity wants to put the Ten Commandments in schools but take free lunch out of them, you are worshipping something other than Jesus.

When we encounter a belief or behavior claiming to be “Christian,” we must ask:

Does this produce more love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control in me and in the world?

If the answer is no, then the Spirit of Christ is not in it.

Privacy is normal.
No "normal person" ever needs to justify why they want privacy, or feel ashamed for wanting it.

“As it turns out, character DOES matter. You can’t run a family, let alone a country, without it. How foolish to believe that a person who lacks honesty and moral integrity is qualified to lead a nation and the world!” - Dr. James Dobson (godfather of the Religious Right)

getting older is all about realizing that debate doesn’t matter. like at all. worthless activity

[Zach W. Lambert @ZachWLambert]

I was hungry, but you took free lunch out of schools.

I was thirsty, but you made me drink contaminated water.

I was a stranger, but you watched me and my children drown underneath your razor-wire buoys.

I was sick, but you cut my healthcare coverage.

I was in prison, but you left me there because you profited off of it.

Whatever you do to the least of these, my siblings, you do to me.

(how I think Jesus would have phrased Matthew 25 if he was speaking to us today)

[Mason Mennenga @masonmennenga]

one thing i love about jesus is that the people closest to him were often wrong about who he was but he still called them to follow him. so even if don't feel you believe all the right things about jesus, you can still follow him
