Our local “pro-life” State Representative here in the Auburn/ #Lewiston area not only opposes background checks, but recently had a gun giveaway where some rando on the internet won a free gun from her. @ShaneClaiborne @shannonrwatts

The start of the 44k marathon. One minute of forging for every life lost to gun violence. Gun violence prevention is a marathon. There are no singular solutions

@danieljonce I am so sorry, my friend.

[Shane Claiborne @ShaneClaiborne]

To all the corrections officers, prison staff, and medics who are tasked with carrying out the execution of James Coddington tomorrow…

YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO THIS. Please consider not participating in the execution. We need moral courage right now in Oklahoma.

When we were soldiers, the Republicans told us we were heroes and that the nation was in our debt.

When we became veterans, the Republicans had nothing but excuses when it was time to pay that debt.

Even with intensely high inflation, today evangelicals have shown us what 30 pieces of silver can still buy you in today’s money.

Bass line and harmony.

Happened to read these books by @BenjaminLCorey and @SarahBessey in tandem and it was like listening to a hymn where the men sing the low part and the women sing the high and there's magic in hearing the different parts of the same song so clearly. ❤

[Benjamin L Corey @BenjaminLCorey]

@SarahBessey @Krista_delaRosa So grateful to be part of your journey, and honored to be a voice in this choir.

@AmandaHeldOpelt @JamesPrescott77 I second this. While I have no problem recognizing that grief is the normal reaction to loss of any kind, I lament the lack of additional words. Because some grief is quickly fleeting; some grief lingers a season, and some grief could not be quenched by a thousand years.

Me with a teenager: "When the kid goes off to college, this house will finally stay clean and organized."

Me, one week into empty-nesting: "Well... I guess that wasn't the issue."

DC MPD Officer Daniel Hodges describing the pervasiveness of Christian symbols among those who attacked him and other police officers during the January 6 insurrection.

"It was clear the terrorists perceived themselves to be Christians."

Hi everyone, this is Dan. It's with both grief and joy that I announce Rachel's final original work for adults, Wholehearted Faith, is now available for preorder. https://t.co/7xxpug7pOO

[Benjamin L Corey @BenjaminLCorey]

So grateful that even though @rachelheldevans is no longer with us, that her words, her spirit, & her heart are still spreading beauty in the world-- and still helping people get a glimpse of what God is like. Much love to @HeyMPT & @danieljonce on this special book launch day.

[Growing Up Christian @gucpodcast]

This week we spoke with Benjamin L Corey. We talked about the problems that came from creating a name for himself in the progressive Christian blogosphere, depression, experiment drug treatments, and End Times shenanigans. Absolutely loved this conversation with @BenjaminLCorey !
