This week, the IRS told a federal court that churches should be allowed to endorse political candidates during worship services w/o violating the law. Don’t misread the IRS filing on endorsements from the pulpit b/c it doesn’t change the law OR protect churches from enforcement.

Statement from @amandatylerbjc.bsky.social on the murder of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, two people who worked at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., last night.

In March, the North Texas Christians Against Christian Nationalism group gathered for their first-ever Advocacy Day at the Texas state Capitol in Austin. It was a powerful day of community building, learning from policy experts, and engaging directly with legislators and staff.

As people of faith & advocates for religious liberty, at BJC we recognize the personal significance of prayer AND the constitutional concerns raised when the government encourages religious exercise. We affirm the freedom of every individual to pray (or not to pray) according to their conscience.

SCOTUS will hear arguments in Oklahoma v. Drummond today, and there's a lot at stake. Public funding for religious charter schools threatens church-state separation. BJC’s Holly Hollman explains why it matters.

In the shadow of injustice, we proclaim resurrection. Read an Easter reflection from @amandatylerbjc.bsky.social on faith, resistance, and what it means to live as Easter people. bjconline.org/living-as-ea...

BJC mourns the passing of Pope Francis.

Easter reminds us that the tomb was not the end, and that injustice does not get the final word. Hope rises. Freedom lives. And no cross or government can extinguish the light of justice. Happy Easter from all of us at BJC.

On Good Friday, we remember Christ unjustly condemned; betrayed by political power, abandoned by the crowd, crucified by the state.

👋 Tennessee folks - here’s a time-sensitive to do item 👇

In this moment they are modeling their views of masculinity (which is corrupt and toxic) around our current leader and his sycophants. Those in the Church who espouse this are merely captive to and mirroring the culture not the way of Jesus. I wrote a whole section in my dissertation about this (2).

Certain conceptions of manhood are culturally/historically intertwined with views on race, nationalism, and American exceptionalism. A "patriotic man" is conceived of as white, hyper-masculine while not showing empathy which is perceived as feminine. (1)

Good question! Any pastors/theologians have thoughts? @brcremer.bsky.social @marlenagraves.bsky.social @jaredstacy.bsky.social @jemartisby.bsky.social @matthewdtaylor.bsky.social

When Jesus said “the kingdom of God is at hand,” he meant that no one has to bow to this world’s want-to-be kings. We don’t have to cooperate with evil. We can treat one another like children of God & experience the beloved community here & now.

Public schools serve all students — regardless of faith. Mandating the Ten Commandments in classrooms is unconstitutional, divisive and harmful to religious freedom. Let’s keep public schools free from government mandated religion!

Alright, Nancy! 🙌🙌🙌

What is Christian nationalism? 🤔 ✅ A political ideology that tries to merge American and Christian identities. ✅ Christian nationalism privileges a particular view of fundamentalist Christianity above all other religious expressions. 🙌 Pass it on!
