Following Jesus
Jesus said, “Everyone, then, who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall because it had been founded on rock. And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain…

I believe Donald Trump
I believe Donald Trump. If Donald Trump is elected president, he is promising to pursue a dictatorial program of revenge and retribution against the free press, Democrats, immigrants, liberals, the LGBTQ+ community, and those not entirely loyal to him. He is certain to pursue relationships with dictators like Putin, Viktor Orbán, and Kim Jong Un. If Donald Trump loses, he is promising to…

I don't want a "biblical marriage"
Amongst some fundamentalist Christian nationalists there is an extremely toxic idea masquerading as “Biblical marriage.” I recently heard an influential hard-right Christian nationalist brag that he has “absolute control over” his wife and children. “I tell them when to get up, when to go to bed, when to talk, when to go to the bathroom, and what to do,” he said. Same guy said women shouldn’t…

God never abandons us
Three times in Romans 1 Paul refers to God giving the unrepentant over: 24 Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves. 26 For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. 28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to an unfit mind and to do things that should not be…

Pearls & Pigs
In Matthew chapter seven, Jesus says: 7:6 “Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under foot and turn and maul you.[1] The standard interpretation, the one I was taught, identifies “holy things” and “pearls” with our gifts, good deeds, advice, scripture, or the gospel; and “dogs” and “pigs” with people who are not open to receiving…

The Art of Deep Listening: Connecting With Others
Listening It seems like no one listens anymore. Talking heads yell over one another on television, politicians utter absurd outlandish lies that are swallowed by the gullible, social media is only interested in clicks. Truth be told, we’ve probably never been very good at listening. While the other person is talking, we’re thinking of what we want to say. We finish each other’s sentences,…

A Wizard's Gift: Magic Seeds and Hope
No one ever knew from whence he came; staff, robe and sandals, like something out of nativity play or a Tolkien tale – his skin nearly black, his beard and eyebrows snowy white, both of which were long and bushy. A few called him a wizard; most said he was a demon possessed warlock. They locked their doors and loaded their guns as they peered suspiciously from closed curtains and dark rooms…

Three Essential Professionals
The word “professional” has shifted in meaning in the last few decades. It traditionally referred to anyone whose job required an advanced degree beyond college – typically, a Ph.D. or an M.D. More recently, it has come to be used for anyone expert in a field. We once had tradesmen. Now we have professional plumbers, electricians, and coffee roasters. I believe in professionals. They help us in…

Hope
“I still use the term [hope] because it navigates a way forward between the false certainties of optimism and of pessimism, and the complacency or passivity that goes with both. Optimism assumes that all will go well without our effort; pessimism assumes it’s all irredeemable; both let us stay home and do nothing. Hope for me has meant a sense that the future is unpredictable, and that we don’t…

War
“… and from the Christian point of view we never could permit a war, since a war demanded the killing of men, whereas Christianity not only forbade every murder, but even demanded that we do good to all men, considering all, without distinction of nationalities, as our brothers. The Christian state, we said, which enters upon war, to be consistent, must not only haul down the crosses from the…

Mirror of God
“It is, in the last place, clear that it is in the Passion and death of Christ that the objects of the strongest religious intuition must be sought. If his Incarnation, his mission, and the manner of his life come to be considered as a piece of self-revelation, in which an eternal Will of Love is mirrored, before all else is this Love and Faith seen accomplished in the Passion. The Cross becomes…
