  • loosing your religion, joining a revolution...


    The Weary PilgrimAuthority Authority: 406
    What Jesus was about had nothing to do with being religious. Read the gospels! He partied with the worst of sinners and outraged the religious. This is what got him crucified. What Jesus was about was starting a revolution. He called this revolution, " the Kingdom of God." This revolution isnt centered on getting ...

  • Hope for Hypocrites


    Till He ComesAuthority Authority: 112
    I sure hope hypocrites can change. Everyone knows what a hypocrite is. They are two-faced. They say one thing in public, but do the opposite in private. Or they say one thing to one group of people, and the opposite to others, just so they can be accepted by both. Jesus had numerous encounters with religious ...

    My mate Simon and I went for a pint the other day, which is actually something I do fairly infrequently these days as there is usually something that gets in the way. The simple act of a pint or two and a table to sit and talk around has been about as close as most [...]

    Missional Church NetworkAuthority Authority: 85
    We cannot in all good conscience obey your unjust laws, because noncooperation with evil is as much a moral obligation as is cooperation with good. Throw us in jail, and we shall still love you.
