A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

"We don't take an oath to a king, or queen, or a tyrant or a dictator. And we don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator ...we take an oath to the Constitution ... and we're willing to die to protect it".

Jesus never forced anyone to follow him.

It is quite the fragile god who needs political power to preserve and enforce their will.

It is quite the powerful God who is born in poverty, partners with the poor, washes feet, heals the sick, advocates for the oppressed, is unjustly killed and still changes the entire world.

A synodal Church is a Church that listens, that is capable of welcoming and accompanying, and that is perceived as “home” and “family” to all.

We are at a critical point in our country’s history. If you do not understand the complexities and promise of our past, you cannot imagine a better future. We either invest in the humanities, including history and civics, or we forfeit our democracy. https://t.co/kMzhDRpj7x

@LakotaMan1 Yes!

[N T Schafer @NTSchafer]

@EricRSammons Recall from scripture, where Christ said, “I come to redeem the world… so long as they are appropriately dress and observe all the pieties required by custom and law.” Oh wait… In an era when church attendance is down shouldn’t we celebrate all who come to church??!!

[N T Schafer @NTSchafer]

@LakotaMan1 Yes, yes, yes.
