This week, the IRS told a federal court that churches should be allowed to endorse political candidates during worship services w/o violating the law. Don’t misread the IRS filing on endorsements from the pulpit b/c it doesn’t change the law OR protect churches from enforcement.

Patriotism ≠ Christian nationalism.

You can be a patriotic American without promoting Christian nationalism.

You can be a proud Christian and reject Christian nationalism.

We are deeply saddened to learn of Dr. Walter Brueggemann’s passing at the age of 92.

Dr. Brueggemann’s work shaped the way so many understand faith, justice, and the role of religion in public life with his fierce and unafraid prophetic voice.

In March, the North Texas Christians Against Christian Nationalism group gathered for their first-ever Advocacy Day at the Texas state Capitol in Austin. It was a powerful day of community building, learning from policy experts, and engaging directly with legislators and staff.

As people of faith & advocates for religious liberty, at BJC we recognize the personal significance of prayer AND the constitutional concerns raised when the government encourages religious exercise. We affirm the freedom of every individual to pray (or not to pray) according to their conscience.
