Election coverage keeps running the same liturgy: name the enemy, raise the fear, offer the savior. If that pattern feels familiar, that's because it is.

People say rates used to be higher, and that's true. But you can refinance a rate later—you cannot refinance the price you were forced to pay up front.

If I only know my opponents through my own side's retelling, I may be bearing false witness without realizing it. Truth starts with listening closer.

I didn't change because I won one argument. I changed through real encounters with people and by seeing Jesus in a way I couldn't ignore anymore.

One table ranks people by usefulness and power. The other says you belong because you bear God's image. That's the world I want to practice now.

If God's image is on people, then neighbors, immigrants, strangers, and enemies all carry a dignity no empire gets to erase. That's where the argument turns.

Voting matters, but it is not the whole imagination of power. Feed people, protect neighbors, share resources, and build the kind of life elections can't deliver alone.

Open the ballot, study it, and vote anyway. Not because the options are perfect, but because imperfect love still chooses to act for real people.

When I weigh a political choice, I want to ask who benefits, who pays, who gets blamed, and who disappears from the frame. That's where discernment starts.

I’m disgusted by @HaleyforMI’s #Antisemitism. Her arguments leave room for only one conclusion: that she believes the bombing of children in Gaza is something innate to Jewish nature and not the horrific behavior of a government. She’s a repulsive human.

Mercy matters, but we cannot stop at relief. I want the kind of love that asks what we can build together so the wound stops reopening.

You may never want grief work. You may still want what tending makes possible.

What if I open the door to grief and cannot close it?
You do not have to close grief like a perfectly sealed door. The goal is to remain connected to yourself, the present, and your choices while you approach what is true.

No politician is coming to save us, but our choices still shape who gets food, housing, care, and room to breathe. Discernment matters.

You do not have to become fearless about grief.
You can still dislike it.
You can resist it, need breaks, feel angry that this is part of your life, and wish the loss had never happened.

That relationship can include boundaries.
It can include “not today.”
It can include professional help.
It can include joy, distraction, work, play, and ordinary life alongside grief.
