Last night's National Call to Action for Faith Communities

Last night I joined the National Call to Action for Faith Communities in discussion about how faith communities can stand up and stand together in opposition of the current Christian Nationalist administration here in the US.

We have to build a new faith narrative. We've got to tell a new story about faith in this country. And it can't always be about what we're against because the problem is that they're telling people what they're for--it's all wrong--but they're telling people what they're for. We have to tell people what God is for. What faith is for. How faith is welcoming, inclusive, how it's building, it's empowering, it's liberating, it's setting people free. How's it's loving on people and not hating on people, which is really what this story is being told.
- Bishop Dwayne Royster

• Interfaith Alliance
• The Horizons Project
• Kairos Center
• Emgage
• Bend the Arc
