My latest: “That is a world worth fighting for with everything we have, including using our most sacred symbols and in physically standing between menacing forces and their intended targets. This Advent, we are invited to prepare ourselves anew for this reversal of power. Are we ready?”

I am tempted to say that those who attack #Muslims while wielding #Jesus aren't real #Christians. But that would be disingenuous: Christians have a long history of hostility toward Muslims. #Islamophobia #Christianity #Islam religionnews.com/2025/12/12/i...

"What do we do when we learn that our government is mistreating detainees right in our backyard?... For faith leaders with privilege like me, this means that we must take some risks for the sake of the gospel. Otherwise, we risk merely becoming a social club that coddles those in power."

Great to be interviewed by @savedbythecity.bsky.social about our nativity, my arrest at #Broadview, and my next book on Islamophobia. If you want to hear my theology of protest, and why we faith leaders have to give a damn and take risks, take a listen here: religionnews.com/2025/12/11/f...

Seems a little wild that DHS would call me out by name and say that this scene is offensive to Christians. I like seperation in my church and state. Moreover, what's offensive to Christians is the dehumanization that DHS and ICE are practicing. That is evil and an offense to God - not my nativity.

#DHS called my nativity "offensive to Christians," and I've got a lot to say about that. What's offensive to Christians is the vile way that they treat bearers of the image of God - that's everybody. We've got to stand up to this secret police force with all we have before it's too late.

It was so nice to be supported by the interfaith community at the vigil for all victims of ICE terror at our nativity tonight. We are stronger together. So many different religions agree this time of year - it's up to us whether we bring more light into the world. I hope you choose hope and light.

We, Christians, don't have to let our past define our present and our future. #Islamophobia #Islam #Christianity #IlhanOmar #Somalis

"The Muslim community was there for us in November, and while I'm president, I'm going to be there for you" — Trump, at the White House Iftar, in May "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With the little [makes a noise]. With her little turban." — Trump, today

OPINION: The Somali community in the U.S. bears little resemblance to the one painted by these slurs. Arriving as refugees fleeing war, Somalis have become one of the most civically engaged and socially productive Muslim communities in the country. religionnews.com/2025/12/06/s...

Sean Hannity is a coward who sent a legion of right-wing trolls to our church, but we're not afraid of him or anyone else. If you're in Chicagoland, meet us for a prayer service next week at the nativity where we can name our grief, lament, and strengthen our resolve to fight ICE and fascism.

Disappointing: "The [AHA] Council received two resolutions for consideration at the 2026 annual business meeting: the 'Resolution in Solidarity with Gaza' and the 'Resolution Opposing Attacks on Core Principles of Education.' but "the Council will not place the proposed resolutions on the agenda."

According2the #American #Muslim Poll 2025 (@theispu.bsky.social), #Christians are the driver of a sharp rise in Islamophobia in the last 3 years.The highest increases were among white evangelicals (15 points),Catholics (12 points),and Protestants (7 points). #Islamophobia is a Christian problem.

My church! If Jesus were born into our world right now, this is how it would look. It's a good reminder that God is always emerging into our present context, and you know what they would do to Jesus if he showed up right now because ICE is showing you every day.

My wife @annapiela.bsky.social and I wrote a new book that comes out in January - Confronting Islamophobia in the Church. Invite us to your church, book group, or podcast, please! If you could help us spread the word and even preorder the book, we'd be grateful. www.judsonpress.com/Products/J32...

Federal agents used chemical weapons on Chicagoans at least 49 times — even after a judge said to stop. Contrary to federal claims about attacks on agents, most of these incidents appear to involve nonviolent protesters or bystanders. blockclubchi.co/47PoaXb
