Conservative Cringe-ianity
“What you won’t see there at CPAC—are any actual followers of Jesus, at least not the one from the Bible.
You won’t find his compassionate heart for the poor and vulnerable, his expansive embrace of disparate humanity, or his sacrificial love for those who are hurting at CPAC—nor will you find any of these things in this GOP or at Trump rallies or in Right-Wing Evangelical churches.”

A Jesus Christian’s Apology for MAGA Christians
MAGA Christianity is Short One Jesus
“They fill up my newsfeed, usually showing up unannounced to call me a libtard or a baby killer or soy boy—or simply to fly a virtual middle finger and remind me that I’m surely going to hell. Their bios read “CHRISTIAN” and “GOD-LOVER” and “DISCIPLE OF JESUS”—but the words appearing just inches below are made of anger and bitterness and fear.“
Powerful Letter
Russell Moore to ERLC trustees: ‘They want me to live in psychological terror’
“My concern about such issues is not because I believe in “social justice” (although, in the literal meaning of those words, of course I do, as the major and minor prophets tell us), but because I believe in the doctrine of hell. I believe in standing against racism not just because I love our African-American and Hispanic and Asian-American and immigrant brothers and sisters in Christ (although I certainly do), but also because I love bigots. And I believe that unrepentant sin, not brought to the light of Christ and cleansed by the blood of Christ, through the gospel, leads to hell. I really believe in hell. That’s why I’ve been clear for twenty-five years on abortion, on sexual chastity and morality, and on racism.”
