Did you get around to watching lat week's episode of #ChalkeTalk ? Watch now, if you haven't, and #jointheconversation with @SteveChalke !

[Steve Chalke @SteveChalke]

The Apostle Paul was not a 21st century catholic, protestant or evangelical. When we fail to understand this we often make the terrible mistake of misrepresent him for an misogynistic, homophobic excluder rather than the inclusive activist he actually was. https://t.co/0b544k64ht

[OpenChurchNetwork @OasisChurchNet]

Check out this week's episode of #chalketalk where @SteveChalke answers the question, "Is every exclusion a failure of love?"

Try to imagine the raw pain of a young widow who, having lost her lover to cancer, is told by a ‘pastor’ that the man she still loves is condemned to hell, separated from her and their children forever, because he just could not believe in God. https://t.co/FRUE802eT0

Did Paul understand God to be vengeful and bigoted, as he is often painted, or a God that loved and believes in each of us to start with? Check out this week's episode of #chalketalk and what you make of @SteveChalke 's points.

“Where there is no vision the people perish." What do you think? Are hope and vision enough to get us through our current political crisis? Where might hope come from? Here's the last of our #Chalketalk summer repeats: https://t.co/vnQ708rpl3

#tbt to #ChalkeTalk 33 - Traditional view of the cross "cheapens God's forgiveness." In this episode, I argued that one of the most common ways of understanding the cross – penal substitution – removes God’s ability to forgive. https://t.co/qIss43UDRc

Starting a day of (animated!) conversation about The Lost Message of Paul with @SteveChalke. I’m passionate about this book and all it represents. Good theology matters.
