Redirecting...

I had a GREAT conversation with Tripp Fuller. I don't know if I answered a single one of his questions, but it was pure bliss chatting theology and politics with him!

Opinion | Behold the Strange Spectacle of Christians Against Empathy (Gift Article) There is nothing woke about medicine or food.

My first professor of theology, James H. Cone, told us that the vocation of theologian entails saying β€œYes” to some things and β€œNo” to others. Anyone who condones the cruel actions of this president knows little of the Christian religion and less of Jesus the Christ.

From yesterday’s sermon on Luke 4:21-30:

The United States of America is like the people of Nazareth in this passage. We’re upset because God’s love knows no political boundaries. Like the people of Nazareth, there are American Christians who are trying their hardest to push Jesus off the cliff.

Opal - Happy Nightmare Baby
YouTube video by Fuzzy Legends Archives Opal - Happy Nightmare Baby

Unappreciated underground rock bands of the 1980s... Opal released one killer album on SST records before morphing into Mazzy Star. I found Opal more interesting, with clear Blues, Doors, Psychedelia and T-Rex influences. Enjoy.
