His daughter, my ex-wife, masterfully officiated the ceremony trying to both honor her father and reconcile the abuse she endured at his hands. “Our relationship was…complicated,” she said from the pulpit. …

Evangelical Christianity is a Cult that will Destroy Democracy

Born and raised in the evangelical, Pentecostal movement, I’ve never made this statement before. I was a minister with sincerely held beliefs for nearly 25 years. Even after I left the church, I maintained, and still do, that there are good people among the evangelical community. …

I’ve struggled with depression for decades. During my lifetime, I’ve had one serious suicide attempt using drugs, one thwarted by gun locks, and more planning sessions than I can count. My diagnoses range from Major Depressive Disorder to Bi-polar II. …

What will happen now that Roe v. Wade is overturned?

Since 1976, the Christian right has fought to overturn Roe v. Wade. They joined the conservative party with a plan to end abortions. However, stopping abortion was never the intention of conservative politicians. At that time, both Republicans and Democrats across party lines were a mixture of pro-choice and anti-abortion. …

Christian Fear Drives Republican Party

As I walked my dogs this morning, I passed a utility worker listening to the news on his phone. I smiled and nodded a silent greeting. He responded by saying, “Good morning. Boy those Democrats have gone over the wall this time!” …

Woke — A conservative’s journey to compassion and activism

I grew up as a conservative Christian with typical conservative Christian values. Life was simple. There was only one God, two genders, and the promise that if you worked hard enough, you could achieve the American dream. As a white American male, honoring God and country were my priorities. I…

I Was a Racist and Didn’t Know It

Born and raised in a conservative Christian home I didn’t have much interaction with people outside my social circle. We certainly had people of color in our congregation, but many assimilated into our culture because of shared beliefs. They were “one of us.” In my late teens and early twenties…

The religious right and their representatives are working hard to outlaw abortion. Alabama and Georgia recently passed legislation to make it nearly impossible to get an abortion in those states, even in cases of rape and incest. 22 states force women who choose to have an abortion to get an…
