I loved this so much. Thank you for introducing me to Pastor Trey. Several of the things you talked about together - liberation theology, inerrancy as a response to the civil rights movement, and more - really unlocked some things for me and put words to thoughts I've had trouble pinning down. Thank you!
I just came here for a sandwich and you treated me to a seven course meal.
Man, I wish I could be in the room when you have these conversations but I have to say, this felt as if I was indeed there feeling as if the world had stopped for a moment while something magical is happening.
I so appreciate the depth of the connection here, and the genuine interest in each other, and the ease with which you both talk about what matters to you so much.
Thanks for hosting this conversation and posting it here.
I've been a believer since the early days of the Jesus movement, and while it has been difficult at times to stay, still I can't leave my first love.
I have tried to find words to express the sentiment I feel right now, which is enormous gratitude and even relief that God still is stirring up the prophets and the sages and the wise people among us. I am extraordinarily blessed to be able to witness the outpouring of faith and love and hope.
The wind blows where it will. God moves and shakes and walks among us. Jesus is alive in the Beloved Community. There is liberty in the Spirit and there is a hope and a future.
What an excellent article. I so appreciated this care and thoughtful concern. I resonate a lot with Trey’s perspective on ministry, especially the fact he stayed the course as a Christian when many others would laugh at him. It does so much to encourage faith amongst us who aren’t combative but seek to be caring while faithfully.

What a kind word, Stephen. Trey is such an interesting thinker, and I learned a lot from him!
...As it happens, I’m a great cook and do love to host friends at my table! Haha. So, an apt metaphor. ;-)

Amen!! God is at work. Sometimes the old words are the best ones for the miracle of Presence in this world.

Totally agree, Julian! Trey is a thoughtful minister which is so desperately needed. Thanks for reading.
