Youth Pastors this sunday:
"This week, you probably heard about the CEO whose extramarital affair was exposed after being caught on the kiss-cam. But can you think of anyone else who was betrayed by a kiss? Open up your bibles with me to...."
Happy anniversary Aaron and Erin!
The Word of The Lord.
It used to be that when I found out someone was a Christian, I assumed the best about them. Now when I hear someone is a Christian, red flags go up and all I think of is MAGA. I hate it.
Evangelicals on Sunday: "Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world. Red, yellow, black, white, they are precious in his sight."
Evangelicals during the week: Cheering on the mass deportation and ripping apart of immigrant families.

Fam, we're over halfway to our goal of $10k! I am beyond grateful and humbled by how far we've come.
We've been browsing Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, and some local dealers for vehicles within our price range that would fit our family's needs.

We're in a pickle, friends.😕
Our main family vehicle died and we need help buying a new one. We've fallen on hard times and can't do it alone.
If you're able, please consider donating or sharing our GoFundMe. Every contribution helps!
🙏❤️

I've never found an intermittent setting for my windshield wipers that's been truly satisfying.
Elephant calves are the second largest babies in existence, right behind straight, white, cis men who think they're being oppressed.
"In Scripture, and in life, the road to deliverance nearly always takes a detour. Rarely do the people of God reach any kind of promised land without a journey or two through the wilderness."

Conservatives on charity & philanthropy:
"Amen! Yes! 👏👏👏"
Conservatives on dismantling the systems that make charity & philanthropy even necessary:
"NO THATS MARXIST!"
Why is it
"maybe your kid gets only 2 dolls instead of 30"
and not
"maybe this billionaire owns only 2 homes instead of 30?"
It's sad to think that some Christians will come across the life-giving therapeutic ideas of self-care and self-love and think "ABSOLUTELY NOT, BECAUSE BIBLE."
Once you understand most Evangelicals were taught that Catholics aren't true Christians, their indifference over Trump's mockery of the Papacy isn't surprising at all.
White MAGA Republican Jesus needs to be crucified and never resurrected.
It will never not shock me to see the same church people and youth leaders who instilled in me the values I hold dear today now call those same values "weak," "woke," and "marxist."
Want to encourage people to have babies?
Maybe start with:
-universal healthcare,
-paid parental leave,
-affordable housing & childcare,
-livable wages,
-free meals at school.
-gun reform so kids are safe at school.
Gabriel: Lord, America is cracking down on anti-Christian bias.
God: oh good; so they are making sure everyone is caring for the poor, the sick, and the foreigner?
Gabriel: No, not like that...
God:
I would love to win this giveaway of one of @maklelan.bsky.social's books! I don't have the extra money right now to order myself a copy but would still really love to read it.
‘Lord, when did we ever see you in prison and not help you?’
he will answer, ‘I tell you the truth, when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me.'
(Matt 25:44-45)
— support or defend any of this, I can't respect you anymore. You are the ones we read about in history books who stood around and did nothing while greater and greater atrocities were being committed and more and more rights were stripped away.
There's no plausible deniability anymore; we live in a fascist, authoritarian state.
Tr*mp is openly flouting a supreme court order to bring back an innocent man they mistakenly deported and is also floating the idea of deporting U.S. citizens.

This past week, my therapist said my issues with self-worth and shame are likely due to childhood trauma so...yeah.
I've been thinking about that a lot ever since.
Evangelicals "THE BIBLE IS CLEAR!"
Actual Bible scholars: "This Hebrew word can mean like 10 different things in English."
"Christian Nationalism is just a derogatory term used by progressives to denigrate any Christians who vote their principles!"

As a Christian, my faith is rooted in Jesus Christ, not the Bible.
I can't believe this is controversial for some people.
One day, we're going to hear some serious allegations come forth, mark my words...even though I really hope I'm wrong. 😥
