But this seems true for non-politicians, like writers, as well. People called #RachelHeldEvans "authentic" ALL the time. And if you read all her work you would she was incredibly consistent -- she didn't bring different personas to different audiences
One of the most destructive mistakes we Christians make is to prioritize shared beliefs over shared relationship, which is deeply ironic considering we worship a God who would rather die than lose relationship with us. - Rachel Held Evans

This is what God’s kingdom is like: a bunch of outcasts and oddballs gathered at a table, not because they are rich or worthy or good, but because they are hungry, because they said yes. And there’s always room for more. - Rachel Held Evans

I watched the #livestream of #RachelHeldEvans' #funeral in 2019…I was moved by how liberal and conservative Christians who loved her together celebrated her life

I would like it if people read the story behind Adolphe Adam's 2nd verse of "O Holy Night" and books by #RachelHeldEvans and #BrianMcLaren in case the U.S. Government "1984"s Christianity.
Just now starting to listen to Rachel Held Evan’s book, “Wholehearted Faith.” Two chapters in and through the introduction, forward, and the chapters, I have shed many tears. Both good and painful, perhaps both in the same teardrop. #rachelheldevans #RHE

I lost myself when #RachelHeldEvans died, feeling I had to fill her shoes. I'm still not completely over that.
America could use a #RachelHeldEvans and is only going to get an endless stream of Kirk Camerons.
