Planning an Anabaptist Bible | Anabaptist World
It will be a “people’s Bible” that, if recruiting is successful, will draw on the work of 500 small groups of laypeople who will write marginal notes and commentary.

Ever listened to the Fresh Expressions podcast?
Jesus made the mission really simple: go make disciples. The goal of Fresh Expressions is to inspire churches to take hold of that mission right where they are.

This war is illegal, immoral, and could be disastrous on a level that’s even hard to comprehend. It’s a copy of the Iraq War with even more combustible conditions.
If Trump pushes us into this war we must engage in mass collective action to stop it.
