I'm preaching through Ezra-Nehemiah seeing Zerubbabel, Ezra and Nehemiah as cautionary tales of letting bias and fear undermine God's vision for us. Anyway, I preached about Ezra last week and missed the opportunity to encourage us all to be "Better than Ezra."

NEW: I spoke to clergy and faith leaders who've joined protests at the Chicago-area ICE facility.

Three say they've been shot with pepper balls, sometimes while praying.

All say ICE is also violating their religious freedom, and one is arguing it in court. religionnews.com/2025/10/07/i...

On Sunday we celebrated World Communion Sunday and I preached from Rev. 7:9-10 and how this vision from John of Patmos can open our eyes to the wideness of God's people.

I'm more convinced than ever on the value of raising my kids on the Gospels and Star Wars.

Empires ain't as scary as they want you to believe. You can resist. You can rebel. You can love. Don't be afraid.

The one thing all mystics seem to have in common is a spiritual revalation that God is love. Whether it's Jewish mystics, Christian mystics, Sufi mystics, or jazz mystics, they all carry a profound sense of what John Coltrane called "A Love Supreme." - Brian Zahnd

Every time I think, "how long ago were the dinosaurs?" and recall the answer of 66 million years ago, I then think, "I haven't thought about this in a while, maybe it's 67 by now."

Time and scale is weird and our brains don't get it.

Grace Pixton: Dating in college is complicated. Dating at a Christian college is made even more so by pressure from the church. For students who follow Jonathan Pokluda, that pressure doubled with the debut of his new dating app, Qualified to Date (QTD).

It is much easier to belong to a group than to belong to God.
To belong to a group one usually has to be convinced the group is "right"; to belong to God, one always knows one is as wrong as everybody else. - Richard Rohr

Today, Hannah Brown and I launch Preacher Handshake. There are lots of podcasts for sermon writing, but not as many for sermon reflection, the craft of preaching, or the elevation of different preachers' voices. We hope this podcast helps.

I mean yes, there is such a concept in Christianity. It appears quite notably in the letters of Paul, for instance, where it’s a concept he *relentlessly* argues against, and in the Gospel where it’s a concept Jesus very much repeatedly scorns. So it is technically in there!
