Be love.

“Hate begets hate; violence begets violence; toughness begets a greater toughness.” - Martin Luther King Jr.

We follow a refugee Christ. We worship a God who became flesh on the margins. When systems separate families, terrorize communities, and take lives, faith demands clarity—not neutrality. Abolish ICE. Put it on your sign.

These words from Jesus’ second coming in Matthew 25 should be the cornerstone of our “end times” theology. - @benjamincremer.bsky.social

A reminder that tomorrow needs you. 🧡

We continue to support our scientists and healthcare professionals as their work continues to be discredited through misinformation that threatens global health. Let us continue to rally behind the scientific community and fight against tactics that are being used to silence and intimidate them.

Today, we mourn. For all victims of violence whose lives are taken away from them at the hands of another person. We also mourn that our government uses the Old Testament practice of “an eye for an eye” when superseding God’s divine timing of life and death through capital punishment.

“…and I thank you for making the house of the Lord a happy place for me again.” We were SO thankful to officially welcome Lina (she/they), Anna (she/her), and the terrific trio into our Glendale Family yesterday during worship! Welcome, home! 💜 #FindYourPeople #GodIsLove #BeUMC #GlendaleUMC

Here’s a few more. Church, it’s [way past] time to stand up and act for justice, reconciliation, and peace.

We are called to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly even when the outcome seems unattainable.

We have a lot to say and act upon. No AI required.
