‘Go and Do Likewise’: Pursuing the Biblical Call to Justice

Cameron Phillips
April 12, 2021
General, Global, Practical Justice
Who would your ‘Samaritan’ be today? A politician? A troll on Twitter? A violent terrorist? A police officer? An anarchist? Someone with a different sexual orientation?

Hatred Toward Asian Americans is Not a New Evil

Mae Elise Cannon
April 9, 2021
General, Peace & Nonviolence, Race
White supremacy is at the heart of anti-Asian hatred.

No ‘Normal’ Way to Heal

Christie Love
April 9, 2021
Books, Church Life, General
No one fully appreciates normal until it is taken away, and often normal slips away in the blink of an eye with little warning or preparation. 

Welcome to Wilderness Church: Where Stubborn Faith Makes Resurrection Possible

Robyn Dyba
April 7, 2021
Church Life, General, Theology
It is a mass exodus of individuals. And it is a lonely exodus. Not only have I lost the community I once had, I found myself without a community to enter.

Easter Won’t be Cancelled

Morf Morford
April 6, 2021
Church Life, General, Theology
Perhaps the lesson of Easter still stands: no stone, no guards, no jeering crowds, no pious bureaucracy, no political compromise will ever hold back, or even begin to contain the living Truth. 

Via Dolorosa, Minneapolis: The Suffering Crowd

Diana Butler Bass
April 2, 2021
General, Race, Theology
With each tearful testimony, I think of what happened on that street in Minneapolis, as regular people watched heartless authorities while a man died unjustly. And I remember what happened on a street in Jerusalem two millennia ago.

The Problem of Cultural Comfort Zones

Michelle Reyes
March 25, 2021
General, Practical Justice, Race
If we’re serious about pursuing deep and meaningful cross-cultural relationships, we need to put in a bit more work. We can’t just live in our own lane and interact when someone different from us happens to occasionally show up where we live.

The Use of Violence to Advance Political Goals

Craig M. Watts
March 16, 2021
General, Peace & Nonviolence, Politics
Distressingly, the language of spiritual warfare has transitioned into the sort of religious rhetoric that lends support to literal civil war, or at least religiously sanctioned violence.

On the Anniversary of the Shut-Down: A Prayer for What Was, Is, and Is to Come

Britney Winn Lee
March 12, 2021
Books, General, Global
It’s been a long road, and it’s not over, though it does seem to be changing. And we felt we couldn’t let this moment pass without marking it together in some way.

Dismantling the White Nationalist Jesus

Caleb Lines and Brian McLaren
March 2, 2021
General, Politics, Practical Justice
There can be only one Jesus, and he was a person of color murdered in the streets simply for proclaiming God’s kingdom, where the poor are blessed, not forgotten.
