With the pandemic going on, I am reading slowly, to absorb Cho's ideas. I don't want to be a jerk, but listening to Trump infuriates me. "When Christians pledge blind allegiance to a political power...and cannot objectively evaluate what a politician states or espouses, we travel down a dangerous path. We cease to see the world informed first and foremost by the life and teachings of Christ." This is idolatry.

It's not about Republicans or Democrats. It's about Jesus. How do I further his call for love and compassion? How do I embody HIS values?

In recent years, I haven't posted anything political. I didn't want to offend; moreover, I don't want my largely conservative Christian friends to judge me. And yet, I am offended by unloving social media posts condemning liberals as non-Christians, vilifying immigrants and people of color, promoting slippery slope, ad hominem arguments even as the president lies constantly. How do I speak up and not be a jerk?
