With only 3 weeks until the manuscript of my new book “The Politics of Loving Your Neighbor” is due. I'm in the “tighten” phase. I find it difficult to read my own work. One of my favorite tools reads my content to me in celebrity voices. Last week, Jonathan Davies. This week, Snoop Dog!

In 2015, I graduated w/ my Master's from Phx Seminary. Weeks later, I saw Rush's penultimate show w/ Neil Peart. Tomorrow, I travel to LA for Rush's 3rd show (w/ a new drummer), then I'll graduate w/ my doctorate from Fuller Seminary. My musical & academic life formed a synthesized chiasm.

I loved this conversation with Daniel Yang from World Relief (the humanitarian arm of the National Association of Evangelicals). Full episode on the Disarming Leviathan substack or YouTube channel.

Holding a high view of the Bible without deeply engaging it leaves us vulnerable to those who weaponize it.

Is Christianity Good? Why would someone pretend to be godly? What do we do when people in power claim the name of Jesus, and then do stuff that seems so, well, anti-Jesus? Turns out, a bunch of people in the Bible considered these questions, too! youtu.be/CcYBQXBfvSU

In 1949, W. E. B. Du Bois testified before the United States Congress in the middle of the Red Scare. In his testimony, he named a dangerous, sometimes lethal, practice common in America’s political discourse. He called it “witch words.” disarmingleviathan.substack.com/p/witch-words

For today's devotional entry, @revcalebcampbell.bsky.social writes that we hold a simple question close this Advent: Where am I trusting the sword to do what only the cross can accomplish? Where have I expected political power to secure what only Jesus can give?

Over the last five years, I've been working on my family tree and mapping the birth and death locations of my ancestors (and visiting some if I am in the vicinity). This is a few hundred of my ancestors' birth locations, color-coded by half-century (starting in 1450).
