Releasing the Epstein files is not about partisan politics; it's about holding predators accountable.
No part of me cares about the party affiliation of those who participated in Epstein's abusive criminal enterprise.
ALL of them should be brought to justice.

I can’t wait to stay up late on No Kings Eve to eat bites of the Resistance Frog cookies, put pocket Constitutions in my grandchildren’s shoes, and then wake up the next morning for a dance party to all of our favorite Rage Against the Machine songs 💙
I hope someday we defeat fascism and in the far future, No Kings Day is celebrated as a federal holiday, and little children leave out dance mixtapes and cookies for the Resistance Frog, who leaves pocket Constitutions in their shoes.

If every time I condemn sexism, nationalism, white supremacy, and homophobia/transphobia you assume I’m condemning Christians, that tells me all I need to know about your version of Christianity.

Empathy isn’t sinful or weak, it is a core value of Christianity and a foundational pillar of democracy.
That’s why authoritarians are so intent on demonizing it.

Thanks so much for sharing all of this! So glad Better Ways To Read The Bible was helpful 😊
@zachwlambert.bsky.social, I don't think we've interacted directly before, but I've been following you (on socials, and watching some of your sermons on YouTube) for a couple of years now. My wife and I excitedly pre-ordered your book and have been reading a chapter of #bwtrtb each week.

In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
