Thanks @ulaakuzi.bsky.social for this great interview with me and @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social!

We are launching our book at @lakestreetchurch.bsky.social on February 4th at 6:30pm. If you are in Chicagoland, you will not want to miss it. Share far and wide!

Read my latest:This lengthy history of Christian anti-Muslim hostility, and fact that Islamophobia thrives in many American churches today, requires of us, American Christians, a consideration of our ethical and theological responsibilities toward our Muslim siblings. arcmag.org/the-quran-fo...

This story haunts me. And I hope it haunts the bastards who did this.

Yo thanks for my new profile picture whoever the artist is!

Check out @annapiela.bsky.social's and my episode on Dangerous Dogma about our new book! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpW6...

Did you know that #ICE has a field office in Tel Aviv? Why is US immigration enforcement active in a foreign country? www.ice.gov/field-office... #PalestineWillBeFree

Awesome panel talk by @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social on ICE cruelty. "We are fighting the Devil here." The event is titled "From the West Bank to ICE: How the US and Israel Collaborate on Violence and Surveillance" in #Evanston #Illinois #PalestineWillBeFree

If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed. Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.

We are fighting the Devil. It’s that simple. I don’t know what else to call evil in physical form like this.

Anna Piela (@annapiela.bsky.social) and Michael Woolf (@revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social) on “Confronting Islamophobia in the Church” on Feb. 3rd at 6:00pm at Hyde Park Union Church — MY HOME CHURCH!!! So many Baptist ministers suck. These ones vehemently do not. Iman Tariq El-Amin will be there too.

Rhetorical question, but I’d love to know how many “conservative Christians” are aware of Jefferson’s Qur’an (as you note)? Or maybe the better question is how many would publicly acknowledge the fact? - never letting reality get in the way of a good narrative ;-) - thanks for your work!

Read my latest in The Commons:“On Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration: Oaths of office and the myth of a single sacred book” www.aprilonline.org/on-zohran-ma...

Here is a link to the Muslim Network TV interview where I and @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social talked with Imam Malik Mujahid about the ways Christians can and should confront Islamophobia in their communities and congregations.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents. Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center. Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

@annapiela.bsky.social and my new book came out today! Confronting Islamophobia in the Church is the result of years of our interfaith work and it would mean the world to me if you would read it. www.judsonpress.com/Products/J32...

@revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social and I have done our first book talk about confronting #Islamophobia in the #Church at @bstberkeley.bsky.social: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zGN... #Islam #Christianity #interfaith www.judsonpress.com/Products/J32...

⚡️NEW from Drop Site: Israel Kills Five Children in Surge of Attacks on Gaza “Safe Zone” Since the October “ceasefire,” an average of five Palestinians have been killed every day. Report by Abd Sabbah (X: @AbdSabbah91) and Sharif Kouddous (X: @sharifkouddous) www.dropsitenews.com/p/israel-gaz...

My prayers are in Minneapolis, where ICE has shot someone in broad daylight. These monsters have to be stopped. They do not care, and they will not stop. If they can do this in front of the whole world, what are they doing where we can't see? We know about torture in #Broadview. We need an exorcism.

@serenejones.bsky.social of @welcome-to-united.bsky.social and David Grafton of @hartfordint.bsky.social are mentioned as advocates for rigorous #Christian engagement with #Islam and #Muslims in my latest article in @christiancentury.bsky.social #Islamophobia #Christianity #antiBlackness #racism

“In the US, Islamophobia has roots in anti-Blackness. When the transatlantic slave trade began, Islam was already established across West Africa, so the first Muslims to come to North America were enslaved Africans—about 900,000 of them. ” – @annapiela.bsky.social and @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social

Come and see us talk! Also, if you’ve got a book group, pick our book and we will zoom in for sure with your group.

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?”

"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.

"May this winter season bring with it the revelation of the manifold miracles that light up our lives amidst the shadows." Read Jonah Gelfand's latest article, "Finding light in the dark this Hanukkah." #Hanukkah www.christiancitizen.us/articles/fin...

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...
