Painting Faith

About

 

Today, Christianity is often marginalized for political and personal reasons. It is used to rally religious followers around an ideal or to invalidate God. To bolster political resumes or frighten people into submission. To judge and be judged.

But I know there is so much more.

God’s palette has many colors other than black and white. Where some can only see black, I see tangerine. Where others cling to white, I find chartreuse.

This blog aims to paint a more vivid picture of faith than the murky gray mess the world has turned it into. All comments welcome.

Read what the painting means here.

I love the tagline- it’s so true… Look forward to your entries!

Good lord, that American Policy Roundtable is some scary shit. Remind me to get you a copy of Paul Watson’s new book when it comes out (God’s Monkey House). He’s a biblical scholar, but from the opposite point of view than normal – the book’s targeted at fundamentalists and their verbatim interpretation.

The colors of God are more vivid than black and white.
