This week at Revolution Church we are talking about destructive neutrality and inaction. The times when our decision to do nothing in the face of evil is as destructive as doing the wrong thing. We look at Matthew 5.

This week at Revolution Church we are talking about those who claim to teach the Bible but whose teachings are full of empire and bigotry instead of love. We look at what happens when faith becomes political.

This week at Revolution Church we are talking about Matthew 19 and how Jesus spoke about the wealthy, while looking at the history of variable equality in the US. We see that the system isn’t broken, it was designed this way.

So I didn't get it at first, but the sticker I covered was styled after the logo for "the North Face"
There was a sticker on this bollard that said "the white race," so I had to do something about that.

The theme for this TFAM convocation could not be more relevant or apt for this moment in time. “We Still Believe.” We are a queer centered and POC centered group, and even with everything happening in the world that is targeting our very personhoods, we still believe in justice that comes from God.

History says 3.5% of the population is the magic number to topple a dictatorship. That comes out to somewhere between 12-13 million people. Yesterday’s protests had an estimated 9 million.
