We are grateful that @TaylorMatthewD will be joining us in a few weeks to talk with our Compelling Preaching Initiative about what all of us need to do to sustain our pluralistic American democracy. x.com/TaylorMatthewD… 9/

We need to learn from resistance movements (including religiously led & inspired resistance movts) around the world how to stand in the face of MAGA hegemony. Our dream of a pluralistic, liberal, multireligious, multiracial Amer democracy is not dead; it's on life support. 18/

As CRCC wrote a few years ago, American theocracy is bad for everyone – including white Christian nationalists. We remain committed to working for a pluralistic society that respects the dignity and freedom of every individual. crcc.usc.edu/american-theoc… 8/

Read this now folks. And stick for the end, calling for more religiously literate reporters/reporting in the U.S. mainstream media. 👇

I know Trump's rally at MSG got lots of press attn for its fascistic undertones, but the most fascistic thing to happen this week in Trump world -- in my view -- is this prophecy spoken over Trump by Messianic rabbi Jonathan Cahn at a relig ldrs event. 1/ youtube.com/watch?v=6E7P8h…
