Happy National Coming Out Day!
With you, God is well pleased. Being gay is not a sin- but bigotry and hatred are.

Donald Trump is terrified that Portland’s commitment to democracy, diversity and the common good will ultimately defeat the MAGA movement. He’s right.
#Portland will not just surrender, Mr. Trump.

I agree with U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley.
The United States should recognize a demilitarized Palestinian state alongside a secure Israel. Now.

Nineteen years ago this week, I was ordained as a minister in the United Church of Christ. I’m thankful for the opportunity to serve God in this way. For 38 years, I’ve been blessed to work as an activist, educator, and minister.

FOX News must fire Brian Kilmeade.
Last week, on-air, FOX News host Brian Kilmeade called for the mass extermination of people suffering from homelessness and addiction. “Just kill ‘em,” he said.

Why are Trump and other MAGA politicians so obsessed with #Portland? He knows Portlanders will never bend the knee.

Our response to MAGA should be non-violent. The ballot box is our greatest weapon. We have to break the cycle of violence in the US. I am praying for Charlie Kirk, as Jesus taught us to pray for our enemies. My prayer is for his health, & that God use this moment to soften all our hearts.

Why is Donald Trump so obsessed with #Portland? He knows Portlanders will never bend the knee. Today he said: “When we go there — if we go to Portland, we’re going to wipe them out.” Living in Portland, Trump said, is “like living in hell." (Cont.)

Dear Immigration And Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents: Many of you are good people. Some of strong faith. You are tasked now not with enforcing US law, but with abusing the #humanrights of others. Honor your love of country. Resign your positions. This is a hard ask, but a moral one. #ICERaids

Open Letter to #Portland leaders on #DonaldTrump:
I write with deep concern over the possibility that President Donald Trump may well send federal troops to Portland.
Portlanders and other Americans must do everything in our power to defend democracy.

Donald Trump’s faith advisor, Paula White, recently said that “to say no to President Trump would be saying no to God.”
Has a more idolatrous statement ever been made?
Too many worship Donald Trump, replacing Jesus, the Prince of Peace, with Trump…
Follow Jesus. Reject Trump.

Whenever I hear Donald Trump or a MAGA acolyte like Marjorie Taylor Greene claim that #God is on their side, I am reminded of what President Abraham Lincoln once said:
"Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right."
Amen!
"Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right."
Amen!

It is time for all good people of faith to repair the sin-sick soul of the nation. That requires fighting racism; bigotry in all forms, rejecting policies that harm God’s creation ― the earth itself ― while loving our neighbors, welcoming the stranger, and working to end poverty.

Donald Trump is busy cutting housing assistance, food, and health care for children- all while building a new $200 million ballroom at The White House for himself. Instead of saying "let them eat cake," Trump's message to hungry children and their families seems to be "let them dance."

1000 year floods. Explosive wildfire seasons. Record heat. These are all the result of human-caused climate change. God calls us to be stewards of Creation. To place profit, comfort, and ease above that call is nothing short of sin. We must repent.
