🔥🔥🔥 I just listened to the intro for "All the Buried Women."

It tells of women "buried alive" by the Southern Baptist Convention & illuminates how the SBC shapes national conversations about gender, race & power. From @bethallisonbarr.bsky.social & Savannah Locke

I can think of many critiques God might have for the American church, but an excess of empathy isn’t one of them.

More sermons on this: “In Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.” (Rom 12)

God’s love is not impotent. God’s love is powerful to transform. This requires no counterbalance.

God does not lead with love and follow up with violence or dominance or control when we don’t get the point. God IS love (1 John) — anything less is counterfeit.

Saruman believes that it is only great power that can hold evil in check. But that is not what I have found. I've found it is the small things, everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keeps the darkness at bay. Simple acts of kindness and love.
