Christian churches are not as a rule, model communities of good behavior. They are, rather, [to be] places where human misbehavior is brought out in the open, faced, and dealt with. - Eugene Peterson

“Surely you know that if a man can't be cured of churchgoing, the next best thing is to send him all over the neighbourhood looking for the church that "suits" him until he becomes a taster or connoisseur of churches.” (C.S. Lewis, Screwtape Letters)

Beware of practicing your piety before others in order to be seen by them; for then you have no reward from your Father in heaven. (Jesus)

Growth in theological knowledge, that doesn’t result in growth in practical godliness, is theology mishandled.

"I therefore hate the corrupt, slaveholding, women-whipping, cradle-plundering, partial and hypocritical Christianity of the land. Between the Christianity of this land, and the Christianity of Christ, I recognize the widest possible difference. Frederick Douglass

The nation's path to healing is going to be long and arduous but we need more of this from leadership. Thanks to Rep. @AndyKimNJ who literally got on his knees to help clean the mess. Thanks for modeling humility & servanthood (@ U.S. Capitol on Thursday 1am between sessions).

Christmas isn't just a 1 day thing—it's a season that lasts until Epiphany. The feast continues. In a world of rapidly changing trending topics, we move on too fast to the next thing. As Rolheiser has said "Our society knows how to anticipate an event but not how to sustain it."

During this Advent season, some of us waited well, and some of us didn't. But thanks be to God that God's coming doesn't depend on how well we wait. The good news of Advent is that even when we are not faithful in our waiting, God is faithful in his coming.
