Sadly true, Dr. Tisby. I pray that we can find a way to center Jesus in our faith. That's why I'm attending the upcoming "life through a Jesus Lens" conference in Nashville. There won't be any room for white Christian Nationalism if we keep Jesus at the center. jesusworldview.org/events/

Perhaps those of us who call ourselves Christ followers could avoid some of this baggage if we kept Jesus at the center of our faith.

An October conference in Nashville will explore this topic. jesusworldview.org

I loved reading this man's story. Thank you for posting. Yes, he and many like him are America.

Great names already mentioned. I will add @amandatylerbjc.bsky.social . She's not super active on here but she wrote this book: bookshop.org/p/books/how-...

2/2 - email to Ron Hart I believe all people are made in the image of God. And we should never joke about treating anyone as anything less. I hope someone who cares for you helps you see that comments like these are nothing to be proud of. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Here's the email I sent him: I know you have won awards for humor, but I - along with many other Tennesseans -find no humor in today's column in the Chattanooga Times Free Press. To make a joke about alligators eating people is offensive. I know you think it's funny because they are immigrants. 1/2

@thetnholler.bsky.social Do you expect the bill to come to the House floor for a vote on Monday? It's hard to keep up!

Thanks, as always for your reporting from the committee rooms.

I attended the rally and it was inspiring.

✔️The Senate version of the bill requires school districts to check the citizenship status of all enrollees. This additional task will increase administrative COSTs in our school districts. Plus, I’m concerned how this info will be used.

(3) And, think about it.

🏠Even if someone rents, they are still paying property taxes. Because I can guarantee that their landlord accounts for this cost when setting the rental rate.

(2/)💲Bill supporters claim they are concerned about the cost of educating undocumented children. Schools are generally funded with sales taxes and property taxes. Immigrants buy things! They pay taxes on these purchases just like the rest of us.

(3 of 3) This doesn’t have to be a left-vs-right bill. Some Republicans have already voted against this bill or the comparable one in the House as it has progressed through committees.
You can do the right thing now and vote against passage of SB 0836.
