"The image of God in me loves the image of God in you."
That was @lisasharper.bsky.social's prayer before walking into a classroom with a student who showed her no respect. Pastor Amy Schenkel brought it into our conversation as a kind of floor, the minimum viable posture for any hard relationship.
Thank you for this powerful tracing of the intellectual lineage of @sojo.net. It is one of the great honors and educations of my life to walk with the Sojourners community and to meet and talk with Dr. Vincent Harding there. Bless you for this important work 🙏🏽

This is beautiful. Also terrifying. God give us the courage to listen to that still small voice and obey.
As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu walked to the podium to deliver his address at the UN General Assembly, dozens walked out.

HOLY S**T look at this: Florida GOP Senator Rick Scott just quietly disclosed stock trades a year late – worth $26 MILLION – on companies HE LEGISLATED. 😳 This is corrupt to its core, and he's hoping no one will notice. You know what to do.

“Charles Finney created the altar call during the Second Great Awakening, calling slave holders to wash clean of the sin & guilt of slavery… On Finney’s altars lay sign-up sheets for the abolitionist movement.” @lisasharper.bsky.social (from #TheVeryGoodGospel)
… The DOJ also announced they are dropping investigations into several other problematic U.S. police departments.
If this was a game of chess, DT just telegraphed his goal. Think: Woodrow Wilson-era race massacres.
Video by Reuters, reposted from NYTimes.
The Administration’s DOJ made another announcement while DT lectured the SA president for 1 hr. They announced they are dropping federal oversight agreements w/ police departments in Minneapolis and Louisville — established in response to the police killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.
It was also the move of one intimately acquainted with white nationalism. He knew the only authoritative voice for a white nationalist is a white man—preferably a rich one. …
I appreciate the way South African president Cyril Ramaphosa pushed back. He brought conservative white South African golfers to offer their own testimony to the president that the video he showed is not what it claims to be. White South Africans are not experiencing genocide in SA. #savvy
