I did a sketch! The first time since my cat Peggy died. It's a scene from Gillian Bradshaw's Render Unto Caesar, which is one of my favorite books ever. #gillianbradshaw #RenderUntoCaesar #sketch #romanceart #drawing #art #ancientrome #historicalfiction

🎄⛪️Today Christians celebrate the birth of (someone who, if they paid attention, they'd note was) an #anarchist: https://sites.google.com/site/christoyannopoulos/publications/christian-anarchism-a-political-commentary-on-the-gospel #christmasnotjustforconsumerism #interestingdinnerconversations

Book weaves together threads of anarchist #exegesis of #Gospel to thereby present as strong & coherent a case why “#Christianity” translates (or should do) to “#anarchism”

Considers #SermonontheMount, but also plenty more NT passages including #DesertTemptations, #TempleCleansing, #arrest, #trial, #crucifixion & #resurrection

Also covers allegedly #violent NT passages, & of course #RenderUntoCaesar & #Romans13. Also lists plenty of examples of followers of #ChristianAnarchism

Writers covered include #Tolstoy, #Ellul, #Eller, #Elliott, #Andrews, #CatholicWorkers #Day, #Maurin & #Hennacy, & others including #Garrison, #Berdyaev & #Yoder
