Found this on my phone as I was cleaning old photos. These feel very appropriate in this moment.

β€œQuestioning government, politicians, and the media are all signs of a healthy democracy, one that values free and critical thinking. Trump’s exhortations do the opposite… he is closing his followers’ minds to disconfirming evidence and arguments.” ~@cultexpert

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

This is the book I needed when I was in seminary 30 years ago! This book is precisely why studying history is so important!

When I watched March of the Penguins with my dad, we learned that they take turns being on the inside & outside of the huddle so everyone gets a chance to warm up. My dad said β€œsometimes, animals are better than humans.” #Penguins are exactly the mascot we need to remind us to care for one another.

Bishop Mariann Budde gave us a masterclass in holding political leaders to account. In her sermon at the National Cathedral, she didn't prescribe policy, but proclaimed what Christians believe & called for those values to be upheld. More of this! Kaitlyn Schiess on πŸŽ™οΈHoly Post 654

You bet I read Bishop Budde’s book over the weekend. I have so much respect and appreciation for her vulnerability, caring & humble heart, and taking her calling so seriously.

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.

Jesus used His power to protect, to expose, and to restore dignity. He calls His people to be in the world using our power under His authority, displaying His character by speaking truth, shedding light, and tending and protecting the vulnerable.

When we hear justifications, excuses, blaming, or a focus on the sins of another, we can be sure we do not have true repentance.
