The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky

“Love has never been a popular movement. And no one's ever wanted, really, to be free. The world is held together, really it is held together, by the love and the passion of a very few people…🧵

Now that both Trump and Biden have publicly stated that our criminal justice system is weaponized and cannot be trusted (something BIPOC people have been saying for a VERY LONG time). Perhaps now would be a good time to pass some bipartisan legislation to fix it.

Men are called to submit in the same way children are called to submit. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

He made the mistake of giving her his most precious gift—his virginity—but now she was distant and cold towards him. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

Men can’t be pastors in the church. Don’t blame me, it’s just what the Bible says! 🤷‍♀️ #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

God is a woman. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

Yes sir. We are going to let your wife continue to pastor our church. I know she sexually abused a student and was grooming many others, but she’s just really good at communicating the gospel and we need that. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

I didn’t want to coauthor this book…to do any sort of justice to a book for men would require me to go deeper, listen even more carefully, study, delve into the mystery (okay, bloody mess!) of a man’s soul. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

Every object on the planet described with he pronouns. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

I didn’t reveal that there was physical contact between the female adult ministry leader and the underage boy because it was non-sexual touch and I didn’t want people to make assumptions. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

She just got into photography and started taking nüdé pics of every male she could find. Everyone tells her what a talented photographer she is and is so impressed by her work. #womeninmalefields

Woman is to glorify God and man is to glorify the woman. Your role is to glorify your wife. You were created for her. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

As married Christian men, our identity is in our wives. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

An independent man is not fit to be husband. #womeninmalefields #womeninchurchfields

For my latest: I wrote of how Matt Gaetz and most of Trump’s picks to the highest offices in the land are a symptom of a decade-long criminal justice reform movement that forgot about women and girls completely. open.substack.com/pub/badgirls...

THIS

Examples of “non-sexual inappropriate touch” by a youth ministry male leader on an underage student woman. Go. (I literally can’t think of any but am wondering if I’m missing something.)

I’m pretty tired of male Christian commentators telling people not to “let” the outcome of this election change or shape our faith. In Christianese I understand it. But seriously…read the room! Oh right, women aren’t in that room.

This.

Jesus fed the hungry and confronted the wealthy. Jesus healed the oppressed and challenged their oppressors. Jesus welcomed the outcasts and called out the religious leaders who excluded them. Jesus is still the liberator of the broken, not the mascot of the powerful.

This Ted talk changed my life and started the trajectory that resulted in my Embracing Self sessions. It is the best 16 minutes you will ever spend learning about what women face with the beauty demand in our culture. youtu.be/uDowwh0EU4w

For those men who want to better understand domestic violence, here’s a good book to start with. Written by a man who, for most of his career, was a therapist for abusers. #books #domesticviolence #violenceagainstwomen www.amazon.com/Why-Does-He-...
