With so many attempting to fast from spending at various pro-Trump corporations (including us!), we want to offer support. How's it going? Has it been easy or challenging to stick to your fast? Let's celebrate our attempt to free ourselves from the power of these corporations! #corporatefastfridays

YES! We can all find ways to shift our individual relationships to billionaires and corporations that are doing harm, even as we organize together to find ways to shift the dynamics that benefit them more broadly in our society. It's both/and! And thank you for fasting with us 👏

This Lent, we're fasting from financially supporting the billionaires and corporations that are stoking hate and supporting Trump -- and we're doing it together, as a community of social-justice Christians. act.faithfulamerica.org/signup/lente...

Have you seen horrible video Trump posted on Truth Social to advertise his takeover of Gaza? We're here to help make the idolatry more obvious (not that we needed to! 🤢). You can read an article about the video here: www.npr.org/2025/02/26/n...

“Trump’s proposed task force to eradicate so-called anti-Christian bias is really another mechanism through which he & his disciples can enforce their own brand of Christianity on the rest of us." - Karli Thompson @faithfulamerica.bsky.social #ChristianNationalism baptistnews.com/article/trum...

Thanks, but no thanks. Trump's proposed task force to eradicate so-called anti-Christian bias is really another mechanism through which he and his disciples can enforce their own brand of Christianity on the rest of us.

They introduced a House resolution accusing an Episcopal bishop of “political activism” for preaching about mercy. They attacked Catholic bishops for defending aid to immigrants. They’re sending ICE into our churches. Now, they’re falsely accusing Lutherans of “money laundering.” See a pattern?
