In praise of Vicky Beeching, evangelical Anglican (Part 2)
Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 2:21 am By Justin Tse
In the spirit of more ancient texts that Churl will appreciate more than the average reader, I will simply say that I forbid you to read this post before you read Part 1. In the previous post, I ended with a suggestion that Vicky Beeching’s gift to the church catholic by coming out brings enormous clarity to what is going on in the Anglican Communion, especially around the realignment that happened in the late 1990s and 2000s. For those who... Read more

In praise of Vicky Beeching, evangelical Anglican (Part 1)
Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 2:11 am By Justin Tse
This post was inspired by evangelical Anglican theologian and worship leader Vicky Beeching’s coming out story in The Independent. Read that first. Also, for a smart analysis of the reception of Beeching’s coming-out, read my buddy Ryan Cook’s post. For a roundup, Beeching has done it herself. Those who knew me when I was on ordination track will know that I have admired Vicky Beeching’s work from the beginning. I was an intern at an evangelical Anglican church, although I... Read more

The black church taught our family the meaning of han. #Ferguson
Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 1:59 am By Justin Tse
This is a post about the private consensus. I’m finally going to say something about Ferguson. Those who needed to speak first have spoken — and spoken importantly. I am not from Ferguson, I am not a leader in a racialized community, and I have nothing to say that would alter the important contributions that Grace Kao, Brian Bantum, Cornel West, Tavis Smiley, and Soya Jung have already made. I thought I waited because I was waiting for permission as... Read more

Assumptions
Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 2:06 am By Justin Tse
Hit play first. Then read. The news cycle this week has been nuts. From the militarized police action and racialization in Ferguson to evangelical media theologian Vicky Beeching coming out as gay, from the mixed-up reports about the Islamic State to the unresolved crisis in Gaza, these ‘wars and rumors of wars’ have rung with apocalyptic tones. The problem with even having a conversation about these things is that they are layered with assumptions. My friend Sam Rocha over at... Read more

Assuming Catholic Geopolitics
Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 1:37 am By Justin Tse
Occasionally here on Religion Ethnicity Wired, I’ve plugged how Asian American and Asia-Pacific Catholicisms rock my socks. I’m not technically supposed to be a Catholic studies scholar. My dissertation was on Cantonese-speaking Protestants and how the engage the public sphere, and while I’ve included Catholics and Orthodox in my postdoctoral projects and given talks about Catholicisms in relation to race, sexuality, and Anglican geopolitics, I feel like I’ve always questioned my legitimacy when I write about Catholic stuff — and...

If #WeAreN, then solidarity with the dispossessed is a must
Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 1:49 am By Justin Tse
I have been reluctant to join #WeAreN because I am not sure that the Islamic State’s objectives merely center on Christian persecution. I am a Christian. My views are fairly ecumenical, broadly catholic, generally evangelical, and politically comical, and in the next week or so, I will probably participate in some prayer meetings regarding the Islamic State and the situation in Iraq and Syria. I am writing this to clarify exactly what I am doing and what I am not... Read more

Because Seattle is not as ‘secular’ as Mark Driscoll thinks, help is available. #TPCIU
Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 1:42 am By Justin Tse
In 2006, Mark Driscoll became the subject of both national and local Seattle controversy. Responding to then-National Association of Evangelicals’ (NAE) president Ted Haggard’s sexual misconduct and substance abuse with a male prostitute, Driscoll alleged on his blog that Haggard had fallen because his wife had not fulfilled his sexual needs (the blog has been removed, so I had to quote from evangelical feminist writer Rachel Held Evans). Outrage ensued, but no less in Driscoll’s own backyard. The Seattle Times... Read more

Justin’s Big BC Politics Primer, Part 3: Where You Think You’re Going, Baby?
Last updated on: July 27, 2016 at 11:36 pm By Justin Tse
This post is part of a series called Justin’s Big BC Politics Primer. The first installment can be found here. The second, which is an overview of the upcoming series, is here. BC native Carly Rae Jepsen’s ‘Call Me Maybe’ is probably a concerned parent’s worst nightmare. The song is about a girl who randomly meets a guy, doesn’t really want him to get away, and hesitantly leaves her number: Hey, I just met you And this is crazy But... Read more

Justin’s Big BC Politics Primer, Part 2: A BC Day Review
Last updated on: December 11, 2016 at 10:10 pm By Justin Tse
The best day to start our Big British Columbia Politics Primer again is British Columbia Day. Here’s the first one, if you missed it. I’m also going to be a Vancouverite/Richmondite about the whole thing and refer henceforth to British Columbia as ‘BC.’ I started this primer over a month ago. Then I got sidetracked. I’m quite unapologetic about that. My distractions were very interesting developments in the democracy movement in Hong Kong and some funny evangelical megachurch business in... Read more

Nobody cares about the Mars Hill protest. #TPCIU
Last updated on: July 27, 2016 at 11:26 pm By Justin Tse
Since writing my last post, I have learned that there is a planned protest by former members of Mars Hill who will be holding up signs that say, ‘Question Mark,’ at the Mars Hill Bellevue location this Sunday. Bellevue is a suburb of Seattle across the water of Lake Washington. It’s also where all the techies in town go to work at Microsoft and Amazon. I make no apologies for not knowing this sooner. For one thing, it is breaking... Read more
