I’m offended by an administration that seeks to exacerbate division rather than nurture diversity

How are we going to change the children? Maybe begin by changing our attitude about children @VanJones68 #fafall19 @CTS_Indy

From James Baldwin: We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist

Today's sermon (based on Micah 6:1-8) brought to attention King: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.”

While change is difficult, stagnation is fatal

[Nathan Day Wilson @nathandaywilson]

“We have forgotten that we belong to each other,” said Mother Teresa. Just imagine how remembering this would change policies, practices, and perspectives

[Nathan Day Wilson @nathandaywilson]

The phrase “climate chqnge” is too tame. We are not experiencing mere climate change, we are living through a climate emergency that is direct and fairly immanent threat to the survival of God’s world @isclimatechange @ClimateReality @UNFCCC @WCCclimate

Yes, and what would it take to eliminate racist policies

[Nathan Day Wilson @nathandaywilson]

Thinking & writing about racism. Eliminating racist ideas requires establishing racial equity. Establishing racial equity requires eliminating racist policies. Agree? Why/why not? Pls contribute!

Say more about the difference between hope and optimism

[Nathan Day Wilson @nathandaywilson]

For those who claim & are claimed by God’s love, less optimism does not mean less hope. Here’s why: https://t.co/277upiUKl1 @Oikoumene @wccpilgrimage @karlsruhe2021 @religions4peace @forpeacemaker @SkollWorldForum @WCC_IA @ReligionReport @DisciplesNews @ButlerCFV @ReligionRethink

My last 2 newspaper columns have focused on the pragmatic challenges of love. A colleague reminded me of King's Strength to Love, which details his belief in "a divine, loving presence that binds all life."

“A theology of hospitality is inevitably a theology of risk and a theology at risk. Outcomes cannot be predicted.” — from Hospitable God @Oikoumene @religions4peace @DPFtweets @IndyCIC @OikoumeneYouth @forpeacemaker @DisciplesJAN

If you want to be assured of being wrong, try to determine the boundaries of God’s grace

[Nathan Day Wilson @nathandaywilson]

“All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation” (2 Cor 5:18). This verse grabbed hold of me this morning, so I decised to share it.

[Nathan Day Wilson @nathandaywilson]

Says Luke 24 — to follow Jesus means being “on the road” to new insights & discoveries; acknowledging you have a limited frame of reference; practicing hospitality for others; & understanding that this whole gig is inherently communal! We need each other. @Oikoumene @MECChurches
