As Rev. Budde is being attacked by MAGA, how about sending her a thank you note? Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, Episcopal Diocese of Washington DC, 3101 Wisconsin Ave., Washington DC 20116
I watched Rev. Budde speak live. When she directly addressed the felon prez, my jaw dropped in awe and admiration. That took a ton of courage to do that in front of a full church. I'm sure the prez was squirming with discomfort, followed by white rage. Not the kind of attention he craves. And by a strong woman. Thanks for being a warrior for the teachings of Jesus, Rev. Budde!
Do you think he was .. squirming? From that same church where Pres Carter’s funeral was held, Steve Ford and Ted Mondale both read letters their dads wrote in the event Carter died after them. They spoke similarly and looked at Trump. Steve Ford in particular. I saw no reaction by Trump or Melania. He so strongly believes his own and others’ (Franklin Graham!) hype that there is no squirming. My fear are the pardoned J6ers going into a place of worship…
The question to ask is: "Did God create this world with all these different plants and animals, landscapes and people, art and music; all of it? Then why do you hate God, so much that you would deny, God's works?" I have often said two things: 1. My God loves diversity, just look at the world. And, 2. God speaks to people in the language they best understand.
Thank you for this, John. I posted her words and what the Georgia congressman said on X. You should read the comments on my FB post. Immediate push back from Trump followers. They call me the hypocrite. Please.
Holy Smokes 😧 John, if you ever want to switch profession's, I think you're are on to something here. I really wish our MAGA Christian brothers and sisters would read this, and see the Light ? One can Hope... Thank You, and will reStack ASAP 🙏💯👍
As always, your writing resounds truth. I don't know that I will ever be able to wrap my head around the fact that so many are self-deceived and unable to see things as they really are. I believe that the adversary (Satan) is abroad in the land.,
I really wanted to find some where on the substack community to write this. I posted something about sanctuary cities being biblical ( in reference to cities saying they won't comply with immigrants round up. I said fact check me and of course someone said I was wrong. So I fact checked me and I hope whoever posted the denial reads this. Sanctuary cities - Exodus 21:12-14; Numbers 35:9-34; Deuteronomy 4:42-43; 19:1-5; Joshua 20; I chronicles 6. I might have confused some Numbers and Deuteronomy but you get the point. Look it up y'all have Google too!!

How about a Thank You donation to an organization that she supports?

He and JustaDick Vance laughed, actually. They really don’t give a shit.

Some folks just don't get it.
So well said! Thank you from one Jesus follower to another.

And of course, learning about Jefferson’s Bible would really set them off!

So well written. I don't know how folks can live in two opposing worlds. What justification can they possibly be offering?

Thanks for explaining why they want those they can’t love as a neighbor need to be deported. Now it makes sense. Shame….
It's unclear why these individuals' continued use of capital "C" Christian is warranted.

This is excellent, John! Thank you. 💜
Amen.
