Christianity is not a monolith. It’s hundreds and thousands of different organizations, and as unique as each individual that claims the title β€˜Christian’.

Trey’s thread is helpful in fleshing this out. Thanks, Trey.

Listen to Black women. Don’t just pander for votes.

Don’t sign up for a protest. Just go.

Pastor here:

Your prayers be damned if they are but empty words. Those who pray without being willing to do something are the height of hypocrisy.

I’m a sex educator as well as a pastor. We’ll continue to teach about transgender people, about intersex people, about the beautiful diversity of gender and sexuality.

And these states have to know that they’ll lose funding anyway.

Just do the right thing.

Trump wants a new U.S. census to exclude people here illegally. It'd be unprecedented Trump is calling for a "new" census that excludes people in the U.S. without legal status. The 14th Amendment requires the "whole number of persons in each state" in a key set of census results.

As people of faith, calling for peace and an end to the war remains urgent.

Weaponizing food by starving individuals and killing individuals as they try to get food is a crime and violation of human rights. This demands the attention of the world, communities of faith, and the support of the actions of the International Criminal Court as we seek a #JustWorldForAll

My community is reeling at the moment because of another youth suicide. This decision will create further devastation among the queer youth around the country, particularly in communities that have far less support structures than we do here in Colorado.
