Last updated on: May 30, 2012 at 8:37 am By Kurt Willems

THE CREED: Anabaptist Reflections on the Apostles’ Creed (part 2) I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead (or hell). On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of... Read more

RE-Membering Memorial Day

Last updated on: May 24, 2012 at 11:17 pm By Kurt Willems

photo © 2010 US Army Africa | more info Remember… …that life is a gift. To call it a gift is to imply that we did not earn it. Life is grace. Peace preserves life. So on this Memorial Day weekend we remember that God’s intention for this world is shalom. This would be a world where human beings find themselves in right relationship with God, with each other, with the earth, and to one’s own self. Life is indeed... Read more

N. Carolina Pastor wants to trap LGBT folks behind electrified fences (evil)

Last updated on: May 22, 2012 at 11:38 am By Kurt Willems

Last updated on: May 21, 2012 at 9:41 pm By Kurt Willems

I even heard an NPR commentator say, “Mores change, but wrong is still wrong! … [This abuse] is clearly wrong!” It’s unusual to hear that level of moral clarity these... Read more
