Art is not frivolous Growing up it never occurred to me to be an artist. My father is a prominent lawyer and I planned to
follow in his footsteps. So, I entered college as a double major in economics and philosophy with the plan to attend law school. But, I became more interested in art and eventually switched to be an art major and transferred to an art school in NYC. In 2000, my father received the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his work in Civil
Rights....
Gun Violence: Perfect love drives out fear We are all weary of the gun control discussions. This essay was first published after a school shooting that was the 40th school shooting of that year and the 26th mass shooting of that year. In response to that shooting my wife shared a passionate article on Facebook,
Brown-Bess-Musket“Why Gun Lover’s Don’t Get to Grieve Another Massacre with Me.” In her post, she quotes the author, John Pavlovitz, saying, “I’m tired of a culture that sees repeated mass shootings as the acceptable collateral damage of freedom.”
Dear evangelical Christianity I’m one of those old guys who posts on
TikTok. My content there has a lot of consonance with the content we publish on Faith on View. The other day, I posted about being received into the Episcopal Church.

Thus we have all been subjected to the "Jesus gets us" marketing campaign. (It attracted widespread media attention around the Super Bowl, but the ads had been around for months before that.) There's a problem, of course: The evangelicals behind this campaign do not seem to understand even the most basic elements of getting Jesus. It turns out that the evangelical
leadership's warm.... I recently wrote an article outlining and lamenting ways in which United Methodist bishops are now worsening their long history of needlessly
harming congregations, noting the stark contrast in how the Global Methodist Church views its congregations, and suggesting some minimal steps that any United Methodist bishops could take if they truly want this season of separation to proceed more.... Finding God through science – an atheist discovers chemical evolution can’t adequately explain the origin of life Jana Harmon shares the story of Dr Fazale Rana who discovered God through his pursuit of science. His paradigm shift began when he began to find scientific explanations for the origin of life inadequate and started to look elsewhere.... Charting Social Change: An investigation into the currents beneath. What causes a moral wave in a society? We are familiar with change induced by outside forces: a technological advance, a natural disaster. But when we as mere mortals want to change the status quo, what characterizes the ferment in which human effort eventually bears fruit? I write to help a brother out. Recently, Tim Anderson, pastor of an un-woke church in CA, asked General William Wolfe a question on the Twitters which
I am sure has crossed every based pastor’s mind: “Honest question: as the pastor of an un-woke church, what would be a good signal on our web site to welcome based Christians?”
Soul Surfer Bethany Hamilton Reveals She's Expecting Baby No. 4 ...The professional surfer—known for her inspiring story of recovery after a shark attack claimed her left arm at 13 years old—shared the news that she was expecting on March 14. “We’ve got six of us on board!” Hamilton captioned an Instagram video of her and her family of five
