@_karenjgonzalez Ta-Nehisi Coates reading Between The World And Me will stick with me for the rest of my life. Haunting and beautiful.

My friend Karen Keen (@Keen_KR) releases her wonderful new book today! In it, Karen skillfully explains the origins, inspiration and interpretation of Scripture. If you have any interest in the Bible, especially if it's been used as a weapon in your life, this is a must-read! https://t.co/XoQmdI1s0z

This quote is from David Gushee’s phenomenal book, Changing Our Mind. I had the pleasure of being with Dr. Gushee this week at the Post Evangelical Collective gathering in Denver and he was brilliant and gracious as always. I’m very grateful for you, @dpgushee.

@JoashPThomas One thing that floors me about all the pushback you’re getting is that Jonathan Edwards’ theology was incredibly problematic even beyond him being a slaveowner. Have y’all ever actually read Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God?? “The God that holds you over the pit of hell…

@Shouwen @PastorLibrarian @kevinmyoung @JoashPThomas It’s great. In a similar vein, I’d also highly recommend everything by James Cone (starting with The Cross and The Lynching Tree), If God Still Breathes, Why Can’t I? by Angela Parker, and Where Do We Go From Here? by Martin Luther King Jr.
