Christian Nationalists:

The Serenity Prayer was never about complacency. It was about survival.

This is why we have a Recovering From Christian Nationalism circle. SUSTAINABLE resistance is crucial to dismantling this shit.

Black text on brown paper bag background “Franciscan version of the Serenity Prayer for modern times. God, grant me the patience to work with the unjust systems I cannot change today, The courage to strategically enact progress when I know I can, and the wisdom to know that despite structural oppression, I can still make a difference.

Ps 121:1-2 I lift my eyes up to the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, maker of heaven and earth.

God is not the fragile parent or partner you had that couldn’t handle your questions or feelings.

May the Church acknowledge our deep fucked-up-ed-ness, and allow God to transform it.

May we be ever aware of our need to continually repent, reform, & be renewed.

Happy Reformation Day!

They got money for wars, but can't feed the poor... -Tupac Shakur

A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death. -Dr. King

Whatever you do to the least of these, you do to me. -Jesus

How much do you know about Jesus’ great-great (28 greats) grandma? Or even his mom?

The truth may shock you.
