God is not on the “us” side of Stephen Miller’s “us vs. them” construct. That is the construct the teacher of the law assumed when he asked the question that catalyzed Jesus’ parable: “Who is my neighbor?” open.substack.com/pub/revchris...

I just learned that abortions are up 11% after the overturning of Roe V Wade and that is a whole lot to process.

When the Anglo-Saxons migrated to the British Isles around 410 A.D. they called the native peoples Welsh, or “foreigners” and took their land. I can’t help but think of that presumptuous audacity when I hear stories of harassment against the only people in this land who *aren’t* immigrants.

If I could share only one Bible verse with every Democrat, Republican, and Independent in Washington it would be Daniel's words to King Nebuchadnezzar which call for both personal and corporate righteousness in how leaders steward power: 1/2

My 10 year old and I are reading through the minor prophets at night and came across this powerful summary from Zechariah 7 of how God calls his people to live. An evergreen word, but particularly relevant for today.

I asked my wife if she wanted to watch the new season of The Chosen now on Prime or wait until we can watch it ad-free on the app. She said she’d like to wait because “I prefer Jesus without the commercials.” And that feels like an entire word for American evangelicalism.

In an abusive system there is no safe place, no binding of wounds or healing for a broken heart. Power is used in God’s name to protect the system rather than the victim. Power is used to oppress and protect the manmade structure rather than the people they are called to lead.

“Pray that the evangelical support he will care about most is that of the evangel, the message of first importance: “that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised…and that he appeared” (1 Cor. 15:3-5).” open.substack.com/pub/revchris...

Can we develop some weighted system for who gets a say on immigration in our country? My ancestors have been here since the late 1600s and I am all about immigration reform. But most the people showing such cruelty toward immigrants seem to be 2nd or 3rd generation immigrants themselves.
