#WhoWillBeAWitness Releases September 1st.

Richmond bound. Bethany Seminary Board of Trustees time. #BethanySeminary #ProfsOnAPlane

For me DEI can be a helpful strategy from inside an institution to move it towards greater diversity and belonging but it is not a substitute for the vital work of reparative justice, liberation, and empowerment for historically oppressed and exploited people.

In 2001, John Perkins told Black college students: don't flee your neighborhoods once you get your degree. Go back. I was in that room. Here's how that one challenge shaped the next 25 years of my life. drewgihart.substack.com/p/how-john-per… #JohnPerkins

Heading home with very little sleep! The early wake-up is hitting hard, but it was worth it to spend time with friends and make new ones at the Ember Gathering. Now, time for a travel day back home. #ProfsOnAPlane

Don’t usually do back-to-back trips, but I’m Oakland bound & headed to the Ember Gathering to speak, reconnect with good friends, and maybe make some new ones from across the country. Cut the winter beard too…trying to step into spring. #ProfsOnAPlane

Heading home after a rich few days at AMBS in Elkhart. Grateful for the connections, the conversations, and the reception I received. #ProfsOnAPlane

Flying to Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary in Elkhart, IN to kick off Pastors & Leaders Week. This year the theme is Resistance, Resilience, and Rest, & I’ve been tapped to deliver 2 talks on resistance. Looking forward to reconnecting w/ lots of good folks✊🏾 #ProfsOnAPlane

I'll be preaching at New Life Philly Church at 10 am this morning.

I'm a conservative I voted for Trump and Alex Pretti was murdered

How to melt the ICE in your neighborhood "A cold front will maintain the freeze. It takes more than a one-time exposure to the heat to get rid of the freeze. It must be a sustained and prolonged exposure for the long haul." open.substack.com/pub/drewgihart…

ICE has now murdered multiple white American citizens in Minneapolis unveiling that the same racialized state violence built to target Black & Brown people spills over to white people resisting the status quo. Black people have lived this our entire time in this land. #LinkArms

Maxey had 34 points, 8 rebounds, and 10 assists. Put respect on his name. #Sixers

I enjoyed #StrangerThings all the way from Season 1 to the finale. Some of the final episodes felt a little preachy but I think it was an attempt to provide closure to so many character arcs.

Sometimes it's the simple gifts that make you feel seen and understood. This gift was just dropped off by my neighbors/friends. Christmas is your invitation to join God's nonviolent insurrection against empire and death-dealing systems.

Honored that my book has been named among this year’s most important theology books. Grateful for the recognition and I also appreciate hearing all of the stories and feedback from readers since the release. englewoodreview.org/important-theo…
