I invite maga Christians to make a choice: you can be loyal to Jesus, or you can be loyal to this president. You cannot be loyal to both. What they want and how they go about getting it could not be more different.

Growing up in the heartland I was constantly bullied for not being enough like the other boys. It never “fixed” me, but it made me care for and identify with marginalized people everywhere.

I’d rather be like me, than them.
I’d rather be wrong about things and loving to people than right about things and hateful to people.

You can be gay and Christian
You can be bi and Christian
You can be ace and Christian
You can be trans and Christian

I know because many of the best Christians I’ve met are queer. It’s almost like authenticity is an important part of following Jesus.

I prefer my Christianity without all the syncretism and cult-like qualities.

I don't push religion for anyone but this guy. That's because this guy spreads the right message. 🩷
What’s amazing about the penitent thief on the cross next to Christ was that he saw salvation in Jesus when effectively everyone else assumed he had been defeated. He recognized something the church in America desperately needs to see: God doesn’t think of winning the way we do.

I identify as a progressive Christian—mostly to stand in solidarity with others who have experienced harm in conservative Christian spheres. But my loyalty isn’t to the left of center, it’s to Christ who is above all the labels. If you’re conservative and kind, we can be friends.

Open invitation. If anyone would like to say sorry for re-electing this absolute embarrassment of a president I will receive your apology with gratitude and grace.

If society is falling it probably has something to do with taking toxic ideologies and slapping Jesus labels on them.

Dunking on other religions doesn’t make Christianity look good, it just makes Christians look bad.

Forgiveness doesn't mean freedom from consequences

Jesus can forgive your soul
Your ass is still going to jail
Jesus didn’t die to give Christians immunity from accountability.

Let’s be honest, who wouldn’t want to keep you around? 😎💛

I guess it shouldn’t surprise us if the same people who’ve made excuses for predatory pastors are continuing to stand by this president.

I’m one of those radical leftist Christians who thinks we should believe women.

The Jesus I know would end the careers of 99 politicians if it meant a single survivor would have a better night’s sleep.

A big difference, and a vital, important difference, too.
There’s a big difference between reading the Bible because you want to encounter God and reading the Bible because you think it is god.

When people don’t have insurance they neglect their health until it’s an emergency. When people don’t have money to pay for emergencies hospitals care for them anyway… until of course the hospitals go bankrupt and have to close, then there just isn’t critical healthcare at all.

Imagine being a Christian Nationalist who wants to take away women’s freedom when Jesus came to liberate the oppressed.

Conservative Evangelicals like to compare the president to Cyrus but intentionally harming children is a lot more like Pharaoh or Herod.
