Under A Mutant Sun
Exploring the intersection of sacred and secular. Growing up, I dreamed of being powerful — not the political power, or even power over others, but powerful in my own right.

The Games We Play

Peace, Not Quiet.
Exploring the intersection of sacred and secular. One reason my faith has become so politically outspoken owes to the attention the hardline conservatives get from the media, which leads people to believe that this is the most active form of Christianity in the nation. It’s popularity isn’t because this movement represents Jesus as much as…
