O knihe

""I wish I could still believe in God, but I can't be a Christian anymore because of ______"" Fill-in-the-blank with racism, misogyny, homophobia, toxic capitalism, and so on. I've had this conversation with different people almost word-for-word over and over. White American Christianity has so defined God that many people cannot separate God from the toxic theology they were taught. But this isn't the God I see in the Bible. The Bible shows us a God meeting people where they are and nudging them towards justice and total thriving for all: shalom. The Bible details arcs of justice and societal reform. If we understand how radical those arcs were in the context of the day, we can extend them forward into the future and figure out how to work for justice, total thriving, and societal reformation in our day. I grew up in that first world view. Come along, and I'll tell you the story of how I escaped, and I'll show you a theology that I believe paints a more accurate picture: a faith for the common good where everyone thrives and no one is left out.
