My current read, by @katherinestewart.bsky.social This is an eye-opening book on the convergence of Christian Nationalists and the New-Right from whom we've gotten our current flavor of American Fascism.
Y'all, we HAVE to speak out and actively work against the heresy of Christian Nationalism.

Voices of faith are as crucial now as they've ever been. We join so, so many of you in declaring that our country must course-correct, and soon. The current policies and actions of the U.S. government do NOT align with our belief in the fundamental rights and inherent worth of all people. #UMC

"To refuse to welcome migrants to this country—and to stand by in silence while families are separated, individual freedoms are ignored, and the migrant community in the United States is demonized by members of Congress and the media—is complicity to sin."
