A person is as young as their dreams and as old as their cynicism.

In religious circles, depression is often deemed to be a spiritual condition that can be cured with prayer.

Religion, for better or for worse, has been politicized in blatant ways that have seldom been equaled in American elections.

The gospel is not about... pie-in-the-sky when they die. ... It is imperative that the up and coming generation recognize that the biblical Jesus was committed to the realization of a new social order in this world.... Becoming a Christian, therefore, is a call to social action.

As we consider the causes of depression, those of us in the church must face the ways we might be responsible for creating it.

I think the time has come for the United States to do even-handed justice.

And we've got to ask ourselves some very serious questions as to whether or not certain religious leaders, in terms of raising money - I hate to bring this up - are pushing hot buttons.
