#Evangelicals really will worship anything except God. #Politics. Their interpretation of the #Bible. The "sanctity" of #marriage, meaning the government issued paper and not the actual relationship of the people involved. Anything except the God who lives outside of their handcrafted boxes.

“Thoughts and prayers.”

“There is something deeply hypocritical about praying for a problem you are unwilling to resolve.” -Miroslav Volf

The Way of Jesus is not mobilizing military forces against citizens and threatening multiple cities to expect the same. The Way of Jesus is an invitation to freedom and abundance, not a threat of violence for those who refuse to comply.

The Way of Jesus is an invitation into more and greater. The only "catch" is that you can't receive bread for today if you're still clinging to a moldy loaf from yesterday.

The Way of Jesus is only a threat to those who benefit from systems of oppression. To those who would define their neighbor as only those who look, think, and act like they do.

The Way of Jesus is not shouted on street corners or written in the laws of empires. The Way of Jesus is a quiet, but persistent whisper. It is sweet on the lips of the hungry, but bitter in the mouths of the well-fed and well-to-do. It is comfort to the afflicted, but affliction to the comfortable.
