a christian in america these days i am often disgusted by how my fellow christians treat anyone who isint as holy as they think they are. i like to think i am progressive and open minded, but my conservative counterparts say i am "fooling myself" and that i go to a hippie church. i am young and the problems of my generation haunt me as my own even when they are far from my daily struggles. i am not gay, yet i love the gay community and want them to have basic civil freedoms. i am not a minority and i don't usually go against the grain at all, but my heart hurts as a christian for those that are. the biggest challenge i face everyday is sticking up for my faith when so many christians have given it a bad name. i am not alone in this apparently. i recently found a magazine called relevant all about forward thinking faith and the arts, and a website called conversantlife about the same. this gives me hope that i wont be the last faith filled person standing up for differences in humanity.read. ask questions. change. love people.
i love you.
