The Pilgrim House

著者: Rev. Dr. Christopher Montgomery OSL
  • サマリー

  • The Pilgrim House is a community for progressive wanderers, people who have been burned by the institutional church and their focus on properties, profits, and partisan politics as the hallmark of what it means to be Christian. It’s a community that opposes all the loyalties to empires in its practice of sacrament and love. It is a place to re-imagine Jesus in the way of peace.

  • Your God is Too Small: Introduction
    2024/07/29
    Deconstruction from evangelicalism and conservative Christianity has trended for more than a decade in among millennials in the United States. It’s rooted in the disconnect our generation has felt between the Jesus we believe is love and peace, and the often fundamentalist leanings of our upbringing that seem now to espouse dogmatic partisanship and hate. Christena Cleveland writes, “Imagination is theology; we can only believe what we can imagine.” This series will focus on helping us tear down the harmful and decaying artifices of a god that doesn’t deserve our belief and help us reconstruct a system of hope and faith that does deserve our following.

  • Your God is Too Small: Grand Old Man of Law and Order
    2024/08/04
    Evangelical Christianity in the United States has been enamored by a God of white respectability since before the nation’s founding: a God that looks, acts, and speaks like a good white man. It’s cliched to discuss images of God as an elderly gentleman with a flowing white beard casting lightning bolts against evil from atop a gold-lined cloud, and that image no longer captures the imagination of people for whom God is fundamentally about law, order, and righteousness. For that, many white evangelicals envision their God as a middle-aged white man in a police uniform, valiantly defending their sensibilities with a thin blue line of pre-integration nostalgia.
