This little misunderstanding is what happens when Christians are always outraged but seldom curious

@JoashPThomas and @hillarylmcbride and I are your speakers for The Table this October in Waterloo. I just feel like we are going to dream up some goodness for church leaders across Canada and I'm so grateful to be invited alongside these beautiful humans.

Power without love is reckless and abusive.
Love without power is sentimental and anemic.
Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice.
Justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love.
- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

"To allow oneself to be carried away by a multitude of conflicting concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to commit oneself to too many projects, to want to help everyone and everything is to succumb to the violence of our times.” - Thomas Merton

Today marks the 1st National Day for Truth & Reconciliation. Take part in a local or online event, pray & read the 94 Calls to Action.
May we as Jesus people honour the spirit of this day, may Creator crack wide our hearts & compel us to move in paths of healing, justice & love

Today on #OrangeShirtDay we reflect on the experiences of approx. 150,000 First Nations, Inuit & Métis children who attended residential schools in Canada. We all have a responsibility to learn our history & take action towards reconciliation. #EveryChildMatters

The system did not fail today.
It did exactly what it was built to do.
We don’t need another system.
Systems don’t create community.
We need humane people who work in the interest of justice and for the health, safety and welfare of humanity, without devaluing Black lives.

White people, the world as we knew it, understood it, experienced it, benefitted from no longer exists. Instead of scrambling for those old ways, and feeling threatened by the changes, remember that liberation is mutual. And it is a beautiful thing. #WhitePrivilege #ubuntu
