I couldn't sleep last night, worrying about some folks. I decided to take some time to reconstruct some of my history, stuff I haven't thought of for a while, as an explainer for why I take the stance I do in relation to the poor, and why I left progressivism. Lots of Christians care about the poor, but very few people or their churches do a very good job actually facilitating the transformation that the Holy Spirit offers. If you take the time to read this, I hope you find it worthy and helpful in discerning how you continue forward in answering the call to care for the poor.
I don't know why the live stream didn't work today. Here is what I did:
Reviewing Judicial Docket at the end.
Apparently Locals isn't processing my live streams this month. I'm not sure what the issue is. A supporter asked about this particular episode, so I uploaded it here for him (and anyone else who wants to go back).
Debra Baty is the head of Resources 4 Redemption, which is an effort aimed at spreading good information about sexual orientation and gender identity. She recently published an article about “sexual fluidity” and how it impacts our sanctification in Firebrand Magazine. It is a good piece, and Debra does worthy work. All believers in the West have to contend with the artificial ideas of the sexual revolution. There is nowhere we can go that these issues do not impact us. The only way out is through.
Debra has a personal story that is quite compelling. She is a trustworthy, thoughtful, and conscientious resource. All covenant Christian bodies need to know where they stand on these things, lest the evil one sow confusion. Now is the time to reflect upon these things. Days are coming when what we believe will be put to the test. If we have not prepared, then we cannot expect to prevail.
