"For a neglected boy like myself who grows up to be an emotionally unavailable man feening for affirmation marriage and parenting... was a demanded and obligatory side dish like vegetables for a small child with an aversion to carrots and string beans." https://t.co/YnA9V4bCXi

"An invitation to pursue life, liberty&happiness, as defined by those who...lie, cheat, steal, & kill to implement their system of government is...exploitative oppression. Jesus...pays the price for our freedom&gives his life in exchange for ours, requiring nothing in return..."

"So instead of prophetically pastoring those that God calls us to, we end up performing for them & pacifying those that do want to focus on justice' w coffee meet-ups, conferences, small group discussions, & sometimes prayer meetings..." #TwoCentsTuesday https://t.co/otZ3KtkqIA

"We’re actually enslaved to our productivity personally (like how we see ourselves), relationally, and systemically, and that works its way down to the dinner table, and it works its way up to the highest levels of geopolitical engagement." #EHApodcast https://t.co/KwYoOr50Bz

“The deeper we go in following Jesus together, the more you get to know each other & see different sides of each other, & the more you get to see real sides of each other…those real parts of us are the parts that long the most to be seen, heard, & known.” https://t.co/IQ8nTp26L9

“The lie proclaimed here is that we are the most generous nation in the world and that the more we have, the more we give. But... during the Great Recession, the poorest Americans actually increased their giving while the wealthiest decreased theirs.” #12Lies

"Under WAFR, wealth and work communicate the value of a person, and the faithfulness of a person is measured by their contribution to the economy. Wealth is blessed and work is worshiped. If I am not perceived to be bringing my offering, then I am a 'taker.'" #12Lies

“COVID didn’t get God off campus--what’s going on there while our bodies are removed? As we look forward... we need to allow ourselves to grieve some of the changes, but also start to wonder where God is going to do something new.” #ArtofVenn https://t.co/8Bs4FOFQo2

"Trump embodies the masculinity that men, yes even Christian men are sold in advertisements, movies & sometimes modeled in churches by the men who stand before us. He is doing what the majority of men were taught is acceptable &/or good." #TwoCentsTuesday https://t.co/BxOZotzrkj

The culture of the world around us is often one of hurry, anxiety & fear, & we are tempted to join in. Retreats of silence are sacred spaces set aside to listen & hear from God so that we are able to receive His love & experience the joy of His presence. https://t.co/Zs8bEcRWsU

"I wake up, do prayer and scripture every day so I start off with God, and right before I go to bed I pray one more time. The day starts with God and ends with God. Having God by your side all the time is a very comforting feeling." #GardensandEmpires https://t.co/5IoOQeYN3g

"God didn’t ask us to sabbath or suggest us to sabbath, He gave the commandment to sabbath, to set aside a day for Him and keep it holy…if I’m oriented around myself or around my work, I can’t actually love my neighbor well." #EHApodcast https://t.co/Fyh2GxxnYR
