Also, to all my followers outside US, thanks for your patience w/ thoughts being shaped by what's happening here right now. It's hard to explain, but American Xianity (& American evangelicalism in particular) cannot be understood apart from larger political forces.
There are #reasons, of course, just as there are plenty of American evangelicals who see the danger of this entanglement to the health of the church & discipleship of her people.
More than ever, American evangelicals need the voices of global evangelicals. We need to see different models. We need to know what faithful witness looks like as a cultural minority. So thanks for bearing with me & us.
Also I just need to say: The blind spot for American evangelicals (including me) is & has always been race. Insofar as we refuse to learn from the black church in America (who has always existed as a cultural minority), we'll never be able to learn from evangelicals abroad either
