@kkdumez ‘s new book hits bookstores and mailboxes on Tuesday. I can’t wait to see how it opens eyes, makes people think, and hopefully connects some dots. A new Sunday, a new Subst*ck. In this one I wrestle with some thoughts from @kkdumez new book, explore the idea of holiness theology, and remind all of us that nuance is important and maybe the journey is the point. Figured I’d jump on a trend I liked. 😆 What’s your basic five year plan these days? It was fun to meet someone who follows me, but also unexpected to be recognized. 😂 I’m glad my stickers are making people laugh and having an impact. 🤩 Thoughts about evangelicals and our inability to accept critique. We tend to get defensive and assume that we are being condemned, and then because we are so sure we are right and everyone else is wrong, we think God is being condemned. Christy, why are you still a Christian? It’s a question I get pretty often especially after people hear about my decade in a Christian cult, the spiritual abuse my husband and I endured at a normal evangelical church, and the multiple seasons of faith deconstruction and reconstruction I’ve been through. It’s Sunday! Which means a new essay on Subst*ck. 😊 Progression of one of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever seen. 😲😊 The sun came out from behind the clouds just long enough to be seen and then disappeared into the lake. Sights like these solidify my belief in a Creator who loves beauty, loves us, and gives us abundant grace even in a broken world. A year ago I opened my Etsy store with five stickers pushing back on “biblical womanhood” ideas. I designed these stickers in a laundry mat on a camping trip earlier in the summer. After opening the store, I went camping with my family. Then I watched as the orders poured in. It was overwhelming and exciting!

    Our Need for Real Repentance

    I want to tell you a story that will hopefully redefine the way you think about repentance. Both of my children are strong-willed, but my son is particularly stubborn. He will get something in his head and no amount of reasoning, or pushing, or arguing will change his mind. The other day, he was in a mood. I don’t even know what he was upset about, but I do remember that he told me to shut up. We don’t talk like that in our family. I was working on a puzzle (because, coronavirus) and he was standing there next to me looking miserable, chin jutted out, hands clenched, angry at…

    A Virus and a Savior

    Many of us used to think that the modern human being was advanced, intelligent, and sufficient. We had impressive technology, evolved thinking, and a vast array of resources. Any problem that anyone threw at us would be solvable. But a tiny little virus destroyed all of those beliefs in a matter of days. Rather than being sufficient, we have discovered that we are helpless with no cure or proven treatment. Instead of evolved intelligence, our smartest scientists struggle to explain the hows and whys. There are more questions than answers. Despite all of our technology and resources, we are left facing a very real fear of death. It is a…
