Churches do not get healthy and then do mission, churches get healthy by doing mission.

Because I love Jesus, I want my Muslim, Hindu, Jewish, Buddhist, Jain, agnostic, and atheist neighbors to be safe, treated with dignity, and have equal rights under the law.

“The Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.” Treaty of Tripoli, ratified unanimously by the Senate and signed by John Adams.

Good social science is rarely like lightning you catch in a bottle. It is more like a slow sunrise. The light of truth gradually spreads across the surface of the phenomenon, revealing contours, patterns, & connections that were always there but difficult to see in the dark.

Maybe the future of the church looks less like religious consumers managing personal spirituality and more like people rediscovering communion, mutual dependence, shared life, and embodied belonging.

🧵 “Unus homo, nullus homo” - “one man, none man.” Are we witnessing the slow death of a distorted Western Christianity built around the isolated individual: solitary, privatized, disembodied, and detached from real community?

Christian Nationalist congregations are bringing that full “we are under persecution but God spared our messiah” energy today. The cognitive dissonance is astonishing.

This is blatant idolatry and blasphemous to the Christian faith. If you’ve been an adherent of the MAGA sect, this is your chance to get out while there’s still time. This is a Biblical reflection on idolatry: @reverendwild1/note/c-240157122" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@reverendwild1

Dear MAGA friends. If a family member, co-worker, friend, started to threaten to commit mass murder on their social media, wouldn't you intervene? No matter their real intent, even if they were exaggerating? How can you continue to support Trump after this? Genuinely curious...

3 of my students, Ava, Natalie, & Claire, share how much the course has meant to them. One said “everyone should take it” because it opens your perspective on life. Another says it “changed the way I see the world every day.”  So heartbreaking. alligator.org/article/2026/0…

Hey @PresMannyDiazJr since you stated regarding sociology, “While that field was very scientific, at one point, it has moved away from that.” Can you clarify your timeline? When exactly did sociology stop being scientific? And what empirical evidence supports that claim?

Just before FX National Gathering last month, my wife Jill was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in her lung. We’ve been carrying this with a small circle of prayer warriors since then. Now, we’re widening that circle. If you pray, we would deeply appreciate your prayers for Jill

“A self does not amount to much, but no self is an island; each exists in a fabric of relations that is now more complex and mobile than ever before.” Jean-François Lyotard, The Postmodern Condition, 1980, 15. Why am I this many years old just now discovering Lyotard?

Writing books is a labor of love. You have to enjoy the blood, sweat, & tears no matter how readership responds. But how sweet it is when people seem to resonate with your work. Distortions has been holding strong at #1 in multiple categories all week. amazon.com/Distortions-Re…

It’s kind of ironic how Bad Bunny was dancing on an electrical post at the Super Bowl halftime show. Puerto Rico isn’t exactly known for having reliable electricity. He could have highlighted the electrical grid crisis in PR and done some good with his platform, but he chose degeneracy!
