The 12th Mark: Stand With the Marginalized
Principle We are living under the twin fangs of late-stage capitalism and resurgent fascism. Capitalism grinds the worker to dust, devouring every hour, every wage, every scrap of dignity. Fascism stalks the streets, emboldened by fear and hatred, draped in flags and false religion. Together they strip away rights, silence voices, deport workers, erase diversity,… Continue reading

Blame the damn pulpits.
Every broken thing in this country has a preacher’s fingerprint on it. Don’t look to Washington for the rot—it started in the sanctuaries. While men in suits prayed for profit, the poor starved under their steeples. While the working class cried for justice, pastors preached patience and called it faith. You want to know why… Continue reading

The 11th Mark: Pursue Justice Relentlessly
Principle Empire feeds on neglect and exploitation. It starves the worker with long hours and low pay, bleeds the poor with rent and debt, and lets whole neighborhoods rot until developers can cash in. When those neighborhoods cry out, empire does not answer with care — it answers with cops. But police protection isn’t tied… Continue reading

To American Preachers
Every person who is called a “minister of the gospel” in this nation — this is your line in the sand. You have watched the rise of fascism in your own backyard. You have seen immigrant families torn apart, asylum seekers pepper-balled, protestors beaten, the poor crushed beneath corporate greed — and you said nothing.… Continue reading

The First Church of Goshen, Inc.
There was once a people who lived in a place called Goshen — a safe corner of Egypt, close enough to Pharaoh’s wealth to prosper, far enough from his whips to pretend they were still free. They had comfort, routine, and a steady supply of grain. They had peace with empire — and they mistook… Continue reading

The 10th Mark: Witness, Teach, and Reconcile
Principle Empire thrives on lies and division, and the church has sold itself to empire’s script. They rail against the poor for “sins of the flesh” while practicing the deeper sins of the spirit — apathy, complacency, and compromise. They wag their fingers at smoking, drinking, or how people dress, but they bless greed, applaud… Continue reading

Faith on the Spectrum!
I didn’t choose this kind of faith — it chose me. I didn’t learn it in a classroom or from a pulpit. It was burned into my chest the first time I heard Christ speak and I knew — He wasn’t being poetic. He meant it. “Take no thought for tomorrow.” He meant it. “Sell… Continue reading

9th Mark — Reclaiming the Abandoned Places of Empire
Principle The empires of greed have left behind hollow towns and quiet ruins. They stripped the land, drained the people, and then moved their money elsewhere. But the People of the Light do not mourn what the empire abandoned — we reclaim it. Distributism is our rebellion against economic feudalism. It is the divine inversion… Continue reading

Open letter to Mario Murillo.
Hey Mario, You know me well. I walked in your shadow. You named me. You tried to forge me. But when God used me to correct you, you recoiled. Now you posture as the warrior-prophet, but the sword you hold is carved from spectacle, not surrender. You have become Herodian: you preach war to your… Continue reading

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO FOX NEWS: A MANIFESTO AGAINST THE FALSE PROPHETS OF PROPAGANDA
They call it “news.” They call it “Christian.” But Fox News is neither. It is a ministry of Mammon wearing a cross. A billionaire cult disguised as a revival. A machine built not to inform, but to indoctrinate—to drain the empathy out of faith, to turn worshippers into warriors for empire. Fox News didn’t save… Continue reading
