Hey yall! I'm an author, minister, & lifelong Knicks fan. I mostly post about basketball, politics, culture, & theology. I recently wrote a book to give disillusioned Christians a vision for following Jesus that's not bathed in political idolatry, patriarchy or Christian nationalism. a.co/d/0RWk5Gv

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

“We have rarely witnessed such brutality erupt into public view like it has in Chicago,” writes Michael Woolf, senior minister of Lake Street Church of Evanston. “For me, this is a spiritual emergency, and it means putting our bodies on the line in order to stop deportations.”

If Mitch can stay healthy this year....
Mitchell Robinson played just 16 minutes on Wednesday night. He dominated them.

My latest on Robinson, his third quarter block-bonanza, and why he left Mike Brown “shocked” after the game:

It's refreshing to read honest journalism about this man. His actions speak volumes about the idolatry that got us here.
When a sitting president releases a video of himself defecating on the American people, that’s not “satire.” It’s a public humiliation fantasy and an erotic performance of dominance.
