The way we think about and portray media outlets is important to our understanding of how we evaluate facts and determine what is true. https://t.co/0rzxjUPJ9C

Racism is a sin. All Christians, all people of faith, should not only reject it, not only oppose it, but fight against it. #Charlottesville

[The Wheaton Tide @TheWheatonTide]

@AppSame race is clearly relevant because the attackers made it relevant, I think the context needs to be addressed age appropriately

[Matt Smethurst @MattSmethurst]

Subtweet the gospel at all times and, if necessary, send a DM.
