When something like this comes up again, how do we tangibly live out our faith and engage others that we disagree... Read more

My Quick Thought on Chick-Fil-A

Last updated on: December 15, 2012 at 11:54 am By Andrew Marin

I [Andrew] was just asked by a media outlet my thoughts on tonight’s LGBT Kiss-In Protest at Chick-Fil-A, and how Christians should respond. Here was my answer: This Chick-Fil-A situation got out of control really quick, in no small part to a number of pundits on both ends of the spectrum adding unnecessary fuel to the fire. They made this situation more than Dan Cathy voicing his support of traditional marriage (as well as some activists on the left also... Read more

God Loves You As You Are, But…

Last updated on: December 15, 2012 at 11:58 am By Andrew Marin

The following post is from Kevin Harris, Director of Community Relations at The Marin Foundation. When I went to the doctor as a child for a physical check-up, I remember the doctor tapping my knee with a little tool and my leg would automatically kick out. As a child it was little more than an amusing interaction, but I later learned that this reflex told the doctor information about my internal state of being (physically speaking) since it functioned as...
