Luna Bloom
@Bloved_LunaBFormed in the darkness, blooming in the soft moonlight, roots deepening in the night of exile, dawn is about to break. El Roi! Adonai Ro'i! El Yeshuati!

One of the biggest lies we Christians have come to believe is that the best and most effective way to address the pressing issues of our time is to gain more control over others rather than become more compassionate towards others. This is the opposite of the gospel of Jesus.
I’m so weary of the kind of Christianity that puts “Christ is king” in its online bio then posts nothing but mockery and hate towards others. This is what taking Jesus’ name in vain looks like.
Gender roles are very important. For example, in the church, men are called to love God and love their neighbor. Women, however, are called to love God and love their neighbor.
It isn’t “sharing your faith” when you’re using legislation to do it. That’s “forcing your faith.” Jesus never gave us the right to impose our religious beliefs on anyone. When it violates human free will and matters of conscience, it isn’t about Jesus. It’s about control.
And is Christ’s sacrifice on the cross only sufficient to cover Adam’s sin but not Eve’s?
argh this old chestnut. My daughter got it in high school and said "I don't understand why people who insist we bear no responsibility for the things our ancestors did a couple hundred years ago also say all women bear responsibility for what Eve did thousands of years ago."
Jesus cried in the garden of gethsemane talking to his father. Jesus cried when his best friend died. Remember this the next time someone calls crying men “betas.”
I love films that ask questions of faith (or whatever you call it). They move me. Here are some of my favorites. Please include your own. The Mission asks how we love others amidst evil that we cannot stop and which we brought to them? How do we resist?
“I came face to face with one of the most demoralizing realizations of my adult life: Scripture was not the reason for the colossal disregard and disrespect of women among many of these men. It was only the excuse. Sin was the reason. Ungodliness.” – Beth Moore /1
Beware of any Christian movement that demands the government be an instrument of God's wrath but never a source of God's charity, mercy, or compassion.
Free meals in schools is a greater service to kids than the Ten Commandments being hung in their schools. Jesus called us to feed the hungry. Jesus didn’t call us to hang posters of our beliefs in front of the hungry.
Men who dismiss Jane Austen as “women’s fiction” are missing out. She’s one of our funniest and wisest writers. A thread of her best lines:
There's a Christian concept that says you have to know that you're a sinner before you can know God's grace. I understand the intention here, but there is another equally powerful view: When you trust that you're loved by God, it is easier to see the consequence of sin.
Jesus’ harshest words weren’t directed towards “sinners.” Jesus’ harshest words were directed towards those who used their religion as a tool of oppression and self serving power. Jesus’ harshest words were directed towards religious hypocrisy. May we remember this.
What the Olympics has taught us: We will believe the most outrageous myths and lies about people we’ve already decided not to love.
Several days ago, I emailed (through a Screwtape letter to Wormwood :)) in response to the Olympics Opening Ceremony debacle. Christians expressed how deeply offended we were. French culture and artists have been prone to clear anti-religious bias over the years. It’s a country…
An entire generation of church kids like me grew up hearing “character matters” when it comes to presidential candidates. Now an entire generation in the church is angry with us because we still believe that character matters when it comes to presidential candidates.
I’m a Christian, I’m completely uninterested and opposed to politicians who claim to uphold my faith yet demonize women, the childless, immigrants, those with disabilities, the poor, and marginalized groups. Because those are the very people Jesus loved, served, and supported.
When you live in Culture War Mode there is always a battle to fight, a side to take, and people to fear. When you live in God's Kingdom there's always a stranger to welcome, a neighbor to befriend, and an enemy to love.
