We are not tasked with "building" or "expanding" the Kingdom.
Jesus is a fully sovereign king.
He is bringing his Kingdom and he doesn't need any powers of this world to help him.
We are citizens, we are his witnesses, we are his ambassadors.
Knowing our role makes all the difference. 👑✝️

The immigrant/migrant/minority nexus should be an easy one for ALL Christians to navigate:
Every person is made in the image of God.
Thus, every person bears the image of Christ.
Now, how should a Christian treat Christ?
Hint: Not the way Caesar treats Christ.

The way of the cross. The way of Jesus. The way of humility, service and preference of others. The way of dying to self & rising with Christ. There’s no other following. This has been the stunning forfeiture in this generation’s discipleship & we have borne its fruit. In repentance we regather joy.

OPINION: There is a text in the Mishnah: “Do not appease your fellow at the time of his anger; do not console him at the time his dead lies before him.” Let the anger rage; do not attempt to appease it.
Hamas killed the Bibas children. We should scream to the heavens.

The “A” in DEIA stands for accessibility. Federal workers with disabilities, including many veterans, deserve respect and the opportunity to work in public service. A diverse, equitable, inclusive, and accessible workplace makes public service better and makes everyone’s lives better.
