A mark of an open mind is being more committed to your curiosity than to your convictions.

The goal of learning is not to shield old views against new facts. It's to revise old views to incorporate new facts.

Ideas are possibilities to explore, not certainties to defend.

I own a few rental properties in the low-income neighborhood I live in. I also help immigrant families who can’t access traditional financing become homeowners. You might say we try to help low-income families find--what's a name for it--"Financial Peace". A thread:

Changing your mind doesn't mean you've abandoned your principles. It may mean you've learned something.

It's better to contradict yourself and be accused of hypocrisy than to stick to your guns and sacrifice your integrity.

The hallmark of integrity is honesty, not consistency.

Apropos of that last link: There is more, deeper, wiser cultural thinking by persons of orthodox Christian conviction being published in English than ever, in my lifetime at least. But there is less institutional capacity than ever to actually embody and live out that thinking.

If making kids wear a mask at school is traumatic, what is it when you make a kid learn about how to shield themself from gunfire at school?

President Trump urged senior Justice Department officials to declare the 2020 election results “corrupt” in a December phone call, according to a participant. “Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the R. Congressmen,” Trump said. https://t.co/BeccTogxxt

Being pro-life doesn’t just mean advocating and protecting the unborn. I also care deeply for the living and don’t want more people to die from #COVID19. Everyone that is able should get the vaccine: https://t.co/86Scu6N5nV

Brilliant King. Powerful King. This is my father at his most truth-telling, yet love-centered, self. Watch and share. #MLK

A cartoon about my father from the 1960’s.

At the time he was assassinated, a poll reflected that he was one of the most hated men in the United States.

Today, his message has been distorted by many who would have hated him then, but invoke him now to deter justice and truth.
