Let's acknowledge that trauma was done, and it was horrible, and there was no excuse.
Let's acknowledge that what they were taught about the Bible was largely traumatic.
Let's listen and sit with those who are hurting.
Jesus said that a bad tree can't bear good fruit, and a good tree can't bear bad fruit. This was terrible, rotten fruit. It's okay to uproot the tree.
The tree is not Christ. The tree is toxic theology.
Let them uproot it, and don't try to stop it.
@JustinEGiboney My first response to the news last night:
A Post Roe world that has not resolved the myriad of reasons women seek abortion is irresponsible governance. And that fault lies across party lines
Public service announcement:
I realize that WOULD’VE sounds like WOULD OF; however…it’s actually short for WOULD HAVE.
Same goes for could’ve AND should’ve.
Please govern yourselves accordingly out here.
Well, it happened. The church that I serve/basically co-pastor voted almost unanimously to leave the PCA.
Here’s why I’m tweeting about it. I have an invitation.

Ok, back to hiding from Twitter...have a good day everyone 🙏🏽
Michelle Obama had to play nice with racists out of a sense of duty and honor. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is having a fucking temper tantrum about an election HE LOST and Republicans are pandering to it. This is what it means to be black in America. We have to be better. They don’t.
Probably has more to do with the fact that it IS continuously placed above our heavenly citizenship by MANY in the church. Also patriotism can and should allow for critique. That’s freedom 🇺🇸
@JackieHillPerry Do you dismiss nationalism as a whole? I thinks it’s a beautiful thing. Certainly not above our heavenly citizenship but why so much negativity towards a country that God has so clearly blessed?? So frustrated by this passive aggressiveness towards being a patriot.
The polls are now closed, but if you are in line, STAY IN LINE! You are entitled to vote.
We need every last one of y’all who are out to be patient just a little longer. Every vote matters.
I’ve watched a surge of people I love walk away from Jesus in the last few years...
Just about ZERO have been lured away by marxism, liberalism or atheism
Almost all have “shipwrecked” over the politicizing of Christianity & their church’s apathy(hostility) re: injustice.
Animating the Mercator projection to the true size of each country in relation to all the others.
Focusing on a single country helps to see effect best.
