I’m convinced that if you spend enough time with anyone, you could love them.

People are beautiful. Broken, but beautiful.

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.

This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

I€E are domestic terrorists.

Supporting their actions at this point is not only despicable but also foundationally unchristian. What they are doing and the way of Jesus are diametrically opposed.

There is no reforming this, we need to abolish I€E.

Is it Gulf of Mexico or Gulf of America? If your answer is “Mexico” do this:

Your homework assignment for this week is to find an immigrant and listen. Ask them about their experience of being an immigrant in this country, especially over the past decade, and listen.

I guarantee that it will open your eyes…and hopefully it will open your hearts.

[Shannon New Spangler @newspangler]

The vitriol I have seen against immigrants this week - especially from church people - is reprehensible and un-Christian. Get yourselves in check, brothers and sisters. We are mandated in the Bible to care for others: to welcome the stranger and to extend love to those in need.

Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power.

RETWEET if you stand with Bishop Budde against Trump!

I had a tremendously hard time in church yesterday. I sat there knowing that a majority of the people singing about God’s love and justice were just giving lip service.

I am so full of anger and sorrow at the church for backing this man.

[Shannon New Spangler @newspangler]

@CoachMattStone Same, friend

[Shannon New Spangler @newspangler]

@dawglovers Nope. My pastor didn’t back him, no church is 100% one way, I’m allowed to be angry.

I have a question for girl dads who voted for Trump,

You say it’s your job to protect her.

So if a year from now, she is lying in a hospital bed dying from sepsis after being denied miscarriage care, what will you say when she asks you why you didn’t protect her from Trump?

[Shannon New Spangler @newspangler]

I’ve been feeling despondent and sad all week - today I woke up rageful - I’m ready to fight.

I’m gonna fight hate with love, I’m gonna fight bigotry with tolerance, I’m gonna fight ignorance with truth.

I will not sit back and let this be.

[Shannon New Spangler @newspangler]

I am deeply angry and deeply disappointed that this man is acceptable to so many.

These pictures are not where I am, but where I hope to be someday, by the grace of God. But not today, today I mourn.

[Shannon New Spangler @newspangler]

I have been mostly unable to articulate what I am feeling post election. It’s too much to take in.

[Shannon New Spangler @newspangler]

Today I thank God I am married to a man who is able to say “we will still act in good, we will be there for those who need us, we will help who we can and that’ll just be life. We can’t control this, but we can control us” because I am not there.
