Stop the doom and gloom! Sure, we face challenges as Christians today, but don’t let the narrative of extinction take hold. Humility and compassion can reshape our political landscape. The way of Jesus isn’t domination—it’s faithful witness. Are you ready to embody that?

How can we call ourselves followers of Jesus while pushing for a government that privileges our faith above others? It’s a dangerous line to blur. True influence means advocating for the flourishing of ALL communities, not just our own. Are we truly seeking the common good?

Isn’t it wild how Wayne Grudem's "biblical policies" just happen to align with the GOP? 🤔 Let’s not pretend that’s a coincidence. The stranglehold of Christian Nationalism is selective and dangerous. Time to check those blind spots and reclaim the gospel!

We're still trying to wrap our heads around the emotional fallout of 2016. It wasn't just an election; it marked a deeper fracture in our communities. How do we move forward in love when political outcomes overshadow our faith? Let’s talk about it.

Christian nationalism is becoming a convenient catch-all, and that's dangerous! If we don’t define it clearly, the real problem gets lost in the noise. It’s on us to articulate what’s true. We must hold the line between faith and nationalism. Let's get vigilant!
November 7, 2025 at 8:46 PM
When politics outrank our faith, we lose sight of what truly unites us. Political identities shouldn't overshadow the love and community we share in Christ. Let's challenge this divide and prioritize our allegiance to the gospel over party lines. Who's with me?

Elections matter, but they don’t define us! It's frustrating to watch so many put their hope in shifting political winds instead of the unshakable truth of Jesus. Let's channel that frustration into love and engagement, not despair. Who else feels this clash? #DisarmingLeviathan

Jesus didn’t just hang with the like-minded; he built a diverse crew of misfits. In today's polarized world, we crave comfort in echo chambers, but growth happens in the mess of disagreement. Let’s engage with love, even when it’s uncomfortable. Who’s in your circle?

Christian values? It’s wild how often that phrase boils down to a political checklist. Life, marriage, capitalism… but where’s the gospel in that? Let’s stop playing gatekeeper and start recognizing the beautiful diversity in the Body of Christ. What does it mean to you?

Are “Christian values” just a code for personal preferences? It’s time to call out the selective moral compass of evangelicals. Real faith goes beyond issues like school choice and gun rights—let’s embrace the rich diversity of true Christian beliefs. Who’s with me?

People are clinging to politics for belonging—and that’s just heartbreaking. Many are caught in the humiliation of a rapidly changing world they can't digest. It’s time we respond with empathy, not dismissal. When they’re hurting, let’s bring the love of Jesus to the table.

When fear drives our politics, extremism isn't far behind. The narrative that "the out-group" is a threat fuels hostility and division. It’s time we challenge this unhealthy cycle, opting for love and dialogue instead. Let's stop letting fear dictate our faith. What do you think?
October 29, 2025 at 8:46 PM
Grievances are often manufactured and shallow, but some—from real pain—deserve our empathy. We can disagree and still love deeply. Being the anchor for those lost in the storm of extremism is our call. Let’s commit to loving without affirmation, ready to welcome the weary. #DisarmingLeviathan
October 28, 2025 at 8:46 PM
Feeling threatened? Remember: real believers respond with compassion, not hostility. When we embrace intimidation or bullying in defense of our values, we step into extremist territory. Let’s stand for truth, but let’s do it in love. We’ve got to do better. What do you think?
October 27, 2025 at 8:46 PM
We’re flying blind while the threat from radicalized Americans grows. Law enforcement is overwhelmed and unprepared to counter this domestic crisis. If we don’t act now with strategic love and truth, we risk losing the heart of what it means to follow Jesus. What can we do?
October 26, 2025 at 8:46 PM
We focused too much on ideology instead of the real drivers behind extremism. Understanding the psychosocial factors is key to prevention. It's time to move upstream and tackle the root causes before violence happens. Let’s talk about how we can truly engage and transform hearts!
October 26, 2025 at 11:31 AM
Humiliation and a desperate need for belonging drive people into extremism. It's not just about ideology; it's about filling the void left by trauma and isolation. Let's confront this reality with empathy. How can we offer genuine connection instead? #DisarmingLeviathan

Grief isn't weakness—it's a step towards healing. We rush to anger and ignore the loss that’s all around us. Let’s take a moment to lament what we’ve lost instead of just throwing our fists in the air. Only through grief can we find the humble path back to hope in Jesus.
October 25, 2025 at 11:31 AM
Hope isn’t a quick fix; it’s forged through struggle. We crave reassurances, but true hope grows from endurance and character. Let's not trade Jeremiah's depth for Hananiah's empty promises. Embrace the process. What are you learning in the waiting? #DisarmingLeviathan

Who’s really fueling extremism? It’s not just ideology. Over 20 years of counterterrorism shows we’ve misdiagnosed the problem. Understanding the psychosocial drivers is the real key to stopping violence. We need to dig deeper and engage with the human heart—not just the ideas.
