What can we do to resist Christian Nationalism ideology in ways that keep us from losing our souls in the process?

With so many ideas and images of Jesus available to us, what are we to do? How do we guard our own hearts from harmful visions of Jesus?

let's take a look at this Labor Day weekend and how Zaccheus sizes up and what it says for all of us!!!! 

How do we respond to such injustice in our time? What if there is a life-giving way to respond to the death-dealing ways of power and authority? 

What makes us who we are and how we handle things sometimes needs to be reviewed and renewed.

Jesus' words....."don't be troubled or afraid..." should ring in our hearts but often don't.  How do we learn to hear them afresh and with welcome hearts?

Our task is to stand up for the least, the last and the left out.  To help their voices to be heard over and above all of the competing voices.

Power and responsibility, freedom and liberty, documents and their interpretation, time-honored ideas and new-fangled disputes — all represent contemporary conflicts that simultaneously take us way back in time. 

Let's see how we can re-focus our perspectives on how we live and how we treat one another. 

What does it take, where do we go? Does it really matter to us and what do we need to do to authentically celebrate.
