CURATE [CULTURE]

Exploring the points where the art, fashion, design, food, tech & entertainment of our global cultures intersects with the Word (Jesus), action, justice & love.

My pal Aaron Weiss from @mewithoutYou knows that it’s time to end the death penalty. Invite the musicians and artists you know to #GoPublic and call for the abolition of the death penalty! It’s time to stop killing to show that killing is wrong.

Sean, we are lovers not haters. We love Jesus. And we love you. We are not responsible for the actions of others & outrightly condemn any hateful language or violent threats against you. We also stand by everything we wrote, & continue to extend our offer to talk or pray with us.

Honestly? It’s the kindness, the gentleness, the humility of Jesus I find most compelling. He’s uninterested in being God!

Sadly, these are precisely the qualities missing from the posture and the pronouncements of so many of his most prominent followers today

There’s a lot of work to be done in our world to end racism, and the Church needed to eradicate racism from our communities of faith. This video is heartbreaking on so many levels. #MustWatch

“It is extraordinary that a group of people who came to our country in chains came to understand the essence of Christianity and the essence of our country far better than their oppressors. You might even call it providential.” https://t.co/JaAiv6Ogim

@BrianZahnd Even Roman Centurions knew enough to distinguish Caesar and Jesus.

@JackieHillPerry Tech question: what camera you guys using? Love the quality!

@Velvet_gazelle @_pinkjar @michaelgungor Wow. Can you DM me too? I’m just wanting clarification and all of this back and forth on twitter leaves me heartbroken.

@Johnheretohelp @dutchsheets We ARE the Church. Come’ on people! We are the temple. We’ve always been. We can gather in homes, parks, parking lots... “Ekklesia” is the Greek word for “a called out assembly”, used when Romans would come to a city and make a decree. We are the called out ones—not a building.

[CURATE [CULTURE] @CURATECC]

@skmurray444 @dutchsheets Totally agree. I grew up you and Mario. But, we as Christians need to curate culture, and that starts with being people of truth. Mario should be able to reference quotes and sources, not just make statement with fear in its wake. Can you help us get the real quote(s), Dutch?

We can’t keep pretending this doesn’t happen, that privilege doesn’t exist, and that racism has been eradicated when sons and daughters are losing their lives.

These are humans, made in the image of God. Regardless… https://t.co/QwWQDs7lxh

Tennessee has executed Stephen Michael West by electric chair. He was declared dead at 7:27pm. On his death certificate, the cause of death will say “Homicide.” We can do better than killing to show that killing is wrong. https://t.co/kWwukfQzpo via @Tennessean

Artists installed seesaws at the border wall so that kids in the U.S. and Mexico could play together. It was designed by architect Ronald Rael. ⁣

Beautiful reminder that we are connected: what happens on one side impacts the other.

@RainIsBlessing @OmarBaddar @joerogan If you read her actual Instagram, you will see she does thank God. Remember the ‘ol story of “ye who has no sin can cast the first stone”? https://t.co/hbK2U4Lzli

I know many people have no idea how to call Congress so @micahchallenge created a simple tool to help you call and urge our leaders "In Jesus name, end family separation". Just put in your address and you'll see who to call. https://t.co/ftRxPH6ZZi

Anthony Bourdain had one of the only shows on tv that tried with all its might to teach Americans not to be scared of other people.
