Today is Holocaust Memorial Day. #NeverAgainIsNow

"A few years ago, I remember a pastor friend telling me they tried something a little different for their Christmas services. Instead of the usual holiday décor and clutter of the sanctuary, they brought in a bunch of manure and hay and scattered it under the pews so the place would really smell like the stank manger where it all began. I laughed hysterically as he described everyone coming in, in all their best Christmas attire, only to sit in the rank smell of a barn."

The folks over at @BeatCancerCD threw one heck of a Christmas party in Leeds last weekend, and #EoE was there for the festivities. Check out the lowdown on @CYFERDYNE , @ZeitgeistZero and @ScumMuta's performances right here! Link in the comments...

Just realised that I haven't posted about the new album on here yet! Pre-order's currently up and running for The Book Of Uncommon Prayer over here: furnacerecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-book… #industrialmusic #bandcampfriday #rhythmicnoise

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

Couldn’t find the person who created this to give credit. Let me know if you do. This is the response people should hear from us Christians when they express church hurt.

@RevDaniel I feel so bad for laughing at this. thanks for the mental comedy gold and I hope you recover soon.

@Vinyl_Massacre as someone who uploads whole albums through DistroKid a bunch of my stuff ends up on YouTube like this. It won't link to my actual channel but it means that my music is way more accessible than if the only videos out there were the few singles I create official videos for.

Seems simple enough.

Important to remember the horrific war crimes in Gaza aren’t being done by “the Jews” but rather by a particular murderous right wing Israeli administration. Many brave Jews in Israel & abroad condemn the slaughter. Our fight is against oppression. No room for antisemitism.

The Samaritan did not ask the man beaten on the side of road why he was on the side of the road. The Samaritan did not offer prayers, or sermons, or qualifiers for the help given. The Samaritan rescued, healed, & protected the victim. The Samaritan is who Jesus told us to be.

Why has @Channel4 deleted this innocuous Tweet? Is it in fact too TRUE, and therefore must be hidden? Lets make sure it isn't hidden.

@_nomadic_soul yup. I follow Jesus because of the impact he's had in my life already, not because of what I'm hoping to get out of the deal once I've shuffled off the mortal coil.

A question to Christians: Would you still follow Jesus if the threat of hell was removed?

Nations were not created in the image of God, humans were. Governments do not reflect the image of God, the people do. Borders do not represent the image of God, neighbors do. Imago dei.

I know there is a lot going on in the world. Sometimes I just need to focus on a few concrete things we can do locally to make a difference. And one of those is turning abandoned houses into homes for families who need one. We have 3 houses here in Philly that are ready to renovate… and we’re trying to raise $105,000 to make it happen. Let’s do this!!! indiegogo.com/projects/homes…
