Have you ever witnessed a miracle?
What is your great work?
The early church saw thier entire lives as lived towards the great work of Christ. They counted the cost, accepted it, and set to work. What is the great work of our generation? What is your great work?
Is it the field or the farmer that is responsible for removing thistles and rocks so the crops can grow?
As a child, I d hear teachers talking about the parable of the sower. They d get to the bit about the thorns and weeds choking the plants, and the rocky soil killing the plants. The implication always seemed to be, try not to be a weed-covered stony field . But is it the job of the field [ ]
What is Theonomy?
Theonomy (from Greek theos God and nomos law ) is a hypothetical Christian form of government in which divine law governs societies. Theonomists hold that societies should observe divine law, particularly the Old Testament’s judicial laws. Wikipedia

Trying to impress God with all our accomplishments would be like a candle trying to impress the sun with its flame.

Do you remember when our parents told us not to believe everything we see on TV? Nowadays, it feels like we have to teach them not to believe everything they see on the Internet.

Perhaps it is not that we are not allowed near God because we are bad, but more that God s luminous existence is simply too much for us in our current state. In which case, God did not send Jesus because He demands punishment for our crimes, but rather that He wanted to hang out with [ ]

Does the alt-right hate the light?
I have some fresh heresy for you. It will probably upset Tommy Robinson, so you know it is going to be good. We will start with a well-known passage: Now this is the basis for judging: that the light has come into the world and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their [ ]

Dear USA, Martin Luther would not approve
Martin Luther taught that love, peace and patience were the way of the Christian, not war. Just saying.
In times when Christians call for war, being a peacemaker can seem like heresy.
For eight days in Lent (6 March 1522), beginning on Invocavit Sunday, 9 March, Luther preached eight sermons, which became known as the Invocavit Sermons . In these sermons, he hammered home the primacy of core Christian values such as love, patience, charity, and freedom, and reminded the citizens to trust God s word rather than violence [ ]

Chjose your own heresy: Empathy – the eighth deadly sin?
As you may recall, the eight classic sins are: pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, sloth, and empathy. I don t remember that last one. Maybe I wasn t paying attention that day. According to author Joe Rigney, empathy is a sin and a counterfeit version of compassion. I m not linking to the book because why should [ ]

Shall we change the 14th of February?
While society and capatlism tries to force us all to spend money on required, optional, enforced, voluntarily given tokens to prove our love, let us rebel and start the cult of inviting people you care about over for snacks and a silly movie.

It s Heresy to Read the Bible Literally (according to retired Episcopal Bishop John Shelby Spong).
Follow me and let’s see if I can’t find something you disagree with.
Be the resident alien
To be a Christian is to deny yourself and follow Christ, so Christianity rubs against every earthly culture. It is meant to. You should be a decent, good-mannered citizen, but you should never feel at home. You are to be a resident alien. The Christian Case for Liberalism, Tim Farron

If you are not accumulating more questions than answers, you may be doing heresy wrong
If you came here looking for answers, I’ve got some bad news for you
Facts – does your heresy have them?
You beautiful heretic, I like the way you think.
The misinformation situation is worse than you think
Jesus told his followers to pay their taxes
Tax avoidance is a sin, folks. (Does that make D. Trump a sinner?)
Commit to facts and truth
In an era of post-truth , this is a vital heresy. Peddlers of oppression fear an informed population.
Jesus didn’t have a job
Just saying
Not assisting someone is a sin, I think
Jesus taught that if you failed to help the least of the people, you failed to help him. This will probably upset the religious right, so don t tell them that feeding the poor and housing the homeless is a biblical responsibility. (Don t even get started on visiting people in prison)
Jesus was a refugee
His parents fled their country for fear of the authorities killing their child.
