Hey Friends of Revangelical! I just wanted to take a moment to let you know a little bit of what I have been up to over the last couple of weeks and why the content on the blog has been really slim.

As you may know, about three weeks ago, an organization called Evangelicals for Marriage Equality launched with the mission of changing the hearts and minds of evangelical christians on the issue of civil marriage equality. I have the honor of serving as the spokesperson of this great group of people and with that has come the responsibility of doing a lot of writing, speaking, and organizing above and beyond what I do on Revangelical. Not to mention I also recently began an awesome full-time job as Evangelical Organizer at an organization called Faith In Public Life, a strategy center for the faith community advancing faith in the public square as a positive and unifying force for justice, compassion, and the common good. Oh, and I am finishing the final chapters of my book Nomad which is due out in late 2015. So it’s been a busy couple of weeks.

But I wanted to keep you all in the loop. So I am sharing some of the work I have been doing in this post and I hope you’ll check it out!

“Evangelicals for Marriage Equality: The Story Behind Our Launch” my piece in TIME Magazine which launched our organization.

“Responding to our Critics” a piece in Huffington Post that I wrote as a response to criticisms against our organization

“Evan Lenow (Prof. at Baptist Seminary) Debates Brandan Robertson” a read-out of a debate I had with an Ethics professor at Southwestern Baptist Seminary

“A New Breed of Evangelicals Who Support Marriage Equality” an article and podcast I did with Whosoever Magazine

“Love in a Dangerous Time” a podcast I did with Russ Jennings

“Evangelicals Are Evolving Quickly on Gay Marriage- And It’s A Good Thing!” an article in The Daily Caller about our work at EME

“TIMES Evangelical Christians Disagree on Marriage Equality” an article in World Religion News about our work at EME

“EME Not Compromising Values” an article about EME in Christian Post

“Why Same Sex Marriage Is Expected to Heat Up In This Election” an article in Washington Post about EME

“New Evangelical Group Supports Marriage Equality” an article in The Advocate about EME

“These Pro-Gay Evangelicals Think They Know How to Save the Church” an article in Huffington Post about EME

“Battle Brewing Among Evangelicals” an article in the Orlando Sentinel about EME

“EME Receives Criticism” an article in Christianity Daily about EME

“Evangelicals for Marriage Equality Is A Real Group” an article in Dallas Voice about EME

And that’s just a taste of whats been happening! So these are busy days, but I am looking forward to getting back to regular blogging very soon! Thanks for your support and encouragement! You all rock!
