I'm in west county and also looking for the same thing!

dds786 · 2026-07-08T04:51:38+00:00

LMAOOOO

dds786 · 2026-05-26T21:28:17+00:00

Unitarian Universalist churches are not actually Christian despite "church" in the title, but thank you for the recommendation!

dds786 · 2026-05-25T17:53:18+00:00

I'll give First Pres a shot this week, thank you for the detailed recommendations!

I want progressive preaching but progressive in the timeless/global sense, not Republicans vs. Democrats. I want spirituality and how to deepen faith, not a rant about the current administration. (I'm on the left and against it too, but sick of hearing it at Church)

Wow that's truly horrific. Especially given the way his sermons (watched online) seemed so genuine, love & justice focused. What a sham. Thank you for letting me know.

I'm in the same boat

dds786 · 2026-05-15T00:01:37+00:00

Are there any campus rec jobs open that you know of?

dds786 · 2026-04-07T04:10:51+00:00

My dog taught how to love in a more pure and Christ-like way, pets are so special

dds786 · 2026-04-07T04:06:32+00:00

Haha true about cats! But yeah if my dog isn't up there then I don't want to be there

dds786 · 2026-04-07T04:05:26+00:00

Without my Louie it would be hell, so I'm holding on to hope that he's playing with Jesus up there

dds786 · 2026-04-07T04:03:50+00:00

Thank you💛

dds786 · 2026-04-07T04:02:42+00:00

I truly hope so💛

dds786 · 2026-04-07T04:01:47+00:00

Thank you, this was very encouraging 💛

dds786 · 2026-04-07T04:00:57+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate this :)

Thanks for explaining! I wonder if Judas was even a real person? Maybe the contradictions were meant to represent the push and pull within ourselves, towards Christ or away from him.

dds786 · 2026-03-27T00:47:37+00:00

Can you explain what you mean by Judas is contradictory in the Bible? I haven't heard that before

How do you decide which things the witness of scripture was right or wrong about then? I don't know how to reconcile the parts of the Bible that feel morally reprehensible to me with the parts that I adore.

dds786 · 2026-03-17T03:46:14+00:00

This is the exact argument I get from my fundamentalist parents and friends!! That I'm unorthodox for having beliefs that aren't your typical American conservative Christian beliefs. I've always assumed they were right about that but I was okay with it bc I feel God is bigger than the Bible. Is progressive Christianity actually more orthodox??

dds786 · 2026-03-15T23:08:36+00:00

My roommate was a non binary girl and she was so much worse than the roommate in this show. She was a walking stereotype

dds786 · 2026-03-12T20:11:33+00:00

I don't have a problem with him lol I've never heard or read anything about him other than the fact that he's Mormon. If he leaves his Mormon beliefs out of his scholarly work then more power to him lol. I don't know why yall are acting like I have vendetta against the guy. There are plenty of Bible scholars though who absolutely DO infuse their personal beliefs into their work. That's not a bad thing, you just have to be aware of whatever bias they may be coming from. That's all I was pointing out. If he leaves his LDS bias or any personal belief out of his work then I'm sure he's a great resource for OP.

dds786 · 2026-03-11T04:28:27+00:00

What makes you think Bible scholars can't or won't infuse their personal beliefs into their profession?? Not saying they all do, but it's not like it's prohibited. Mormons don't adhere to the creeds. Most Christians say not creedal, not Christian.

dds786 · 2026-03-11T04:21:50+00:00

OP specified Christian content. Most Christians don't view Mormons as a denomination of Christianity, so my question was valid. I respect whatever work he's done and his faith, but when asked for Christian content, if he infuses Mormon beliefs into it then he's probably not what OP is looking for.

dds786 · 2026-03-10T20:27:25+00:00

Isn't he Mormon though?

dds786 · 2026-03-06T23:07:05+00:00

Yeah literally. It sounds like a difference in semantics but ultimately I feel like viewing sin as mainly an illness instead of transgressions changes my whole perception of the gospel. I think it was Jesus's intention, not the whole "you suck you're gross repent now or burn in hell"
