“Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.” Pierre Teilhard de Chardin #progressivechristianity #progressive

I think that anything that begins to give people a sense of their own worth and dignity is God. #progressivechristianity #progressives #progressivechristians

"They amuse themselves by playing an irrelevant ecclesiastical game called "Let's Pretend." Let's pretend that we possess the objective truth of God in our inerrant Scriptures or in our infallible pronouncements or in our unbroken apostolic traditions. #progressivechristian #progressivechristianity

thinking of one of abraham lincoln's great quotes this morning:

"As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy."

People are now referring to
Pete Hegseth as “WhiskeyLeaks” and I’m kinda mad that I didn’t think of it first. #progressive #progressivedemocrats #progressiveChristians

At the end of the day---if you live long enough—like most people, you will get out of life what you deserve. 🤪

Happy St. Paddy's Day my friends! May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rains fall soft upon your fields, and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. 🐍☘️☘️🍀🍀 #progressivechristian

Being the light doesn't mean ignoring the darkness or pretending it doesn't exist. It doesn't mean we put on blinders and walk through life oblivious to the pain and suffering around us. It means confronting the darkness with hope, kindness, and truth. #progressivechristianity
