The Powers and Principalities are wreaking havoc in the lives of so many in our world, the mustard seeds and the yeast are doing their work. #mustardseedparable #justice #indyccc

May we be afflicted; but not crushed. May we be perplexed; but not driven to despair. May we be persecuted; but not forsaken. May we be struck down; but not destroyed. #mustardseedparable #justice #indyccc

God’s call on our lives is to be part of a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world. #mustardseedparable #justice #indyccc

Can you see how God uses people and events regarded as “insignificant” – uses people seen as inferior or offensive or dangerous – to transform the world? #mustardseedparable #justice #indyccc

Freedom Schools were a legacy of the Mississippi Summer Project. It planted seeds in the minds of young people who were not supposed to think for themselves, according to racist power structures. #justice #indyccc #johnlewis #votingrightsact

According to John Lewis, the Mississippi Summer Project created the environment for the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. This Act made it possible for hundreds and thousands and millions of blacks to become registered voters. #votingrightsact

The Kingdom of Heaven is like a mold that starts in the corner of your bathtub and slowly takes over your entire house. #mustardseedparable #justice #indyccc

Yeast in Jesus’ day is not a positive symbol. It’s technically a fermenting agency and often a symbol of decay – of the corruption of human nature. #mustardseedparable #justice #indyccc

The Kingdom of Heaven is like a dandelion that someone took and planted in your pristine yard, and from one tiny plant soon the whole yard was covered in dandelions. Incidentally, the bees loved it. #mustardseedparable #justice #indyccc

If we read a parable and think, “how nice,” we’re definitely missing the point. Parables are intended to get our attention – shake us up – tease our minds into a new understanding. #mustardseedparable #justice #indyccc

It does seem that our world has learned from the Holocaust, but these lessons seem so fragile. #othering #justice #indyccc

God inhabits all that God has created, and is present with and within all for us. #othering #justice #indyccc

[CentralJustice @indyccc46204]

As God works on us through our lives, and if we are open to the transformation God will work in us, this "othering" will go out the window. #othering #justice #indyccc

[CentralJustice @indyccc46204]

It's easy to . . . critique people 80 years ago for seeing Jews as an "other" that deserved persecution; and it's tempting to avoid the unpleasantness that accompanies acknowledging the "othering" that we as Christians STILL do to people of other faiths. https://t.co/MgsrBvu3so

[CentralJustice @indyccc46204]

Would that the followers of Jesus and the readers of Paul's letters had lived out a faith the embodied Paul's notion of divine love and mercy. Instead, the history of the Christian church comes to us filled with "othering." #othering #justice #indyccc

[CentralJustice @indyccc46204]

The Holocaust began with the "othering" and the dehumanization of a group of people. In a very different time and a very different place, the apostle Paul also deals with the issue of othering. #Romans11 #justice #indyccc

It is our job to care for those who are in need who show up on our shores and who show up at our doors. #abundance #indyccc @BChrisDorsey

There's always enough justice for all of us. We just have to realize that when the need is greater, we need to BE greater. #justice #abundance #indyccc @BChrisDorsey

[CentralJustice @indyccc46204]

The question we have to ask ourselves is, is there enough for all of us? Jesus says there is. #justice #abundance #indyccc @BChrisDorsey
