It’s good to be back. #preachingretreat

Getting set up! Join us at 10am for worship and lunch to follow.

Frank Schaefer, son of the influential Francis Schaefer, claims in his autobiography to have convinced his dad, and then his dad, convince the evangelical movement of his day, to embrace pro-life as a significant platform. He claims to be in the room with republican leaders, convincing them the same. He claims he had a front row seat as he watched the religious right marry the Republican Party. Pro-life was and continues to be an issue he is very passionate about. Yet, he now regrets much of what has transpired in this religious and political marriage. He doesn’t offer much of a way forward, but I find his brief reflection here, in this excerpt from his autobiography, to be fascinating and contains a few nuggets that I think are worth pondering. For context, he is still pro-life, although wishes for more nuances and compassion in how it is legislated. He left the evangelical church and is now Greek Orthodox, and as such prefers questions and mystery over answers. You need to know that to begin to understand what he says about it now.

Love this kid. Love this city. #themanyfacesoffinn #columbus

Had to post another one. #themanyfacesoffinn

Finn got to see some Ballet dancers tonight at a block party. He watched without getting distracted and then went off to the side, where no one was watching, and tried out some of the moves he saw. He went on to dance for the next hour. It was amazing. #themanyfacesoffinn @balletmet @franklintonart
