#ChristianSocialism #TheBias
Do we stand with God, or do we stand with our oppressors?

In a world that tells us to give up, God tells us that hope is resistance.

Ooh that's me, lower right. I brought a 'Love Thy Neighbour' placard, because I'm fed up with the far right claiming to represent Christian values. Many people along the way, including Muslim families and people coming out of church, gave it a thumbs up. #Oxford #SUTR #ChristianSocialism
The Gospel invites us to believe there is another way.

Solidarity and justice are divine commands. Not optional charity.

One of the biggest problems with even the idea of a meritocracy is that it directly defies the idea of equality. We are all God's children, and no one is more deserving of happiness than anyone else. If you strive and succeed in life, it should be for the betterment of everyone.

Rev. Dr. Pauli Murray’s prophetic voice was woven with faith, feminism, and the fight for racial and economic justice.

Navy text on white: Do not desire a ruler’s delicacies, for they are deceptive food. Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven. Do not eat the bread of a man who is stingy; do not desire his delicacies, for he is like one who is inwardly calculating. “Eat and drink!” a ruler says to you, but his heart is not with you. Proverbs 23:3-7 (ESV)
This is the Gospel.

I identify as a Christian socialist. #Anglican #ChristianSocialism
A text-based image that says "MONKS pooled resources, abolished private property, and organized collective labor." The logo for the Institute of Christian Socialism is at the bottom.

All this, centuries before Marx. What might their example say to us about community and economics today? #ChristianSocialism #TheBias
The world is waiting. How will you answer? 🌿✊🏾

Part 6, the final part. I think this one might be the best/my favourite? I think I at least did a decent job of tying off the series #Lent #ChristianSocialism sacramentalistnsocialist.wordpress.com/2024/04/01/l...
Part 5. Somewhat self-indulgent but also the one that best captures why I love and value Lent and Easter so much. The tension between knowing the edge of the cliff is out there, somewhere, and standing on the precipice #Lent #ChristianSocialism sacramentalistnsocialist.wordpress.com/2024/03/24/l...
Blessed Feast Day of Frederick Denison Maurice (Anglican Saint). I think that what I perhaps like about Frederick Denison Maurice most is that his political views are the opposite...

Part 4. This is always the weakest from memory but whenever I read it back it seems ok #Lent #ChristianSocialism sacramentalistnsocialist.wordpress.com/2024/03/15/l...
Part 3 for #Lent, perhaps the most important in this particular moment #ChristianSocialism #FreePalestine sacramentalistnsocialist.wordpress.com/2024/03/08/l...
Part 2 for #Lent #ChristianSocialism sacramentalistnsocialist.wordpress.com/2024/03/01/l...
More socialism a la #MartinLuther. There's a reason why #KarlMarx liked this treatise so much! #ChristianSocialism
I grew up Christian in the South, but never knew much of this history 'till listening. It's truly important stuff from Behind the Bastards.

From one of Luther's most powerful treatises, untranslated into English until only about two years ago. #CapitalismKills #ChristianSocialism
