    As you read about the Cornell Seven, remember Tamar (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Seven men. One woman. And allegations so horrifying there is a temptation to look away. Don’t. Look closely, not only at the men accused, but at what this case reveals about the rest of us. A former Cornell University student alleges seven current or former members of the Chi Phi fraternity sexually assaulted her over the course of one night in October 2024. The men have not been convicted of those allegations, and at least some have publicly denied wrongdoing. A criminal investigation that prev

    What hath justice to do with righteousness? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    There are Christians in America who can tell you exactly what righteousness looks like in somebody else’s bedroom but cannot recognize injustice in their own neighborhood. They know which sins keep a person out of the pulpit. They know which marriages God approves. They know which books should disappear from school libraries. But ask about the Black body afraid of a traffic stop, the immigrant body disappearing into detention, the poor family choosing between rent and groceries, the child buried

    One year later, Charlie Kirk still isn't a martyr (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    One year after Charlie Kirk’s death, I am increasingly concerned that parts of the American church have forgotten the difference between mourning and canonization. We have a word for remembering those who have died: Mourning. We have a word for those who die because of their witness to Christ: Martyr. These are not the same thing. Martyrdom comes from the Greek word for “witness” — the martyr’s death testifies to something beyond the martyr, to Christ, to a kin-dom that refused to bow before the

    James Talarico and the Black Church (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Last week, BNG reported that James Talarico will speak at Baylor University. On Sept. 16, the Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate will hold a campaign event at the Baptist university. The event will be limited to Baylor students, faculty and staff, and it comes after the university extended invitations to both Talarico and Republican nominee Ken Paxton. For those of us who write at the intersection of religion and politics, there is plenty to see here. Talarico is a Presbyterian and a seminar

    Here’s the secret I’ve been afraid to share (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    It has taken me five years to write those three words publicly. Five years of learning how to tell my story without telling “that” part of my story. Five years of talking about transformation, wilderness, grief, resurrection and the faithfulness of God while carefully stepping around one of the experiences that transformed me most. Five years of learning how to walk without letting anyone see my limp. And then, a few weeks ago, I accidentally showed it. I was interviewing for a senior pastor pos
