No secret group in power. Its just capitalism. Damon Garcia 2023-08-22 | This may seem obvious to most people but a lot of people who say this really just mean the capitalists they don’t like are running things while the capitalists they do like are trying to save us. But it’s just capitalism. Capitalism wasn’t always around and it won’t be here forever. We grow and we change systems to fit our needs better, like we always have. But during those shifts the people who benefit the most from the previous system to do everything they can to stop change from happening. They’ll even convince us to fight each other so that nothing changes. But change is inevitable.
Did you know a pastor was indicted with Trump? Damon Garcia 2023-08-20 | Did you know a pastor was indicted with Trump? Rev. Stephen Cliffgard Lee drove to election worker, Ruby Freeman's house to pressure her, and is now charged with Influencing Witnesses and Soliciting False Statements. Check out the full story in my new video, "Pastor Indicted with Trump: Who Is He & What Did He Do?".
Pastor Indicted with Trump: Who Is He & What Did He Do? | Rev. Stephen Cliffgard Lee Damon Garcia 2023-08-19 | Reverend Stephen Cliffgard Lee was just indicted with Trump for racketeering and conspiring “to unlawfully change the outcome of the election in favor of Trump.” In December of 2020 he drove to the house of Ruby Freeman, a ballot counter accused of tampering with votes to steal the election from Trump. He attempted to pressure her into giving a false testimony, and after failing he called Harrison Floyd to call Trevian Kutti to set up a meeting with Freeman to pressure her again. It's going to be interesting to see what happens in this trial!Come to Theology Beer Camp in Springfield, MO October 19-21!

Stop being Islamophobic When You Criticize Evangelical Christians Damon Garcia 2023-08-17 | I’ve seen these kinds of comments on my videos lately and it’s not cool. You can just criticize evangelical Christians without being Islamophobic. There’s a long history of violence in Christianity. You don’t need to compare today’s violent kind of Christians to a stereotype of Muslims that justifies anti-Muslim violence. It’s time to unlearn this prejudice.

Evangelicals Reject Jesus for Being too Liberal and Weak Damon Garcia 2023-08-14 | Russell Moore is an evangelical who has criticized Trump and has made the news for this interview clip where he talks about conservative evangelicals rejecting Jesus for being too “liberal” and “weak”. This is totally new to me since I’m used to Christians twisting Jesus into some sort of Republican, instead of just accepting that Jesus is too progressive for them. Christian nationalism is on the rise and it’s reshaping American churches into becoming increasingly unsafe communities. Something has to change.This is a clip from my new YT video, Christians Trade “Weak Liberal” Jesus for Trump. Watch the full video on my channel. youtu.be/pPff1Iiqs0E
Penal Substitutionary Indictment? Damon Garcia 2023-08-13 | When Trump says “I’m being indicted for you” and “I’m the only one who can save this nation” and “they’re not after you, they’re after me, I’m just in the way” he’s playing to his evangelical base by hijacking theological language about “Jesus being punished in our place”. But that interpretation of the crucifixion is only about 500 years old and is the worst of the worst of theological language in church history.This is a clip from my new YT video, Christians Trade “Weak Liberal” Jesus for Trump.

The Politics of Jesus Damon Garcia 2023-04-24 | None of us can have the exact same politics as Jesus because he lived in a totally different time and place. But Jesus was not on the side of empire.

You need to get THIS to get Jesus! Damon Garcia 2023-04-18 | This is something that John Dominic Crossan talks about and why he even prefers using the word “matrix” instead of “context”. Because when we talk about this stuff it isn’t just interesting facts or cool background info. It’s absolutely necessary to understanding who Jesus was, what he was doing, and what his message was. This was really important to me when I wrote my book, The God Who Riots, and this is the way I went about, as the subtitle of the book says, “taking back the radical Jesus”.

The End of Jesus Radical Life Damon Garcia 2023-04-17 | Jesus didn't come to die, but to live. The execution of Jesus was a consequence to the kind of radical life he lived.

The Crucifixion Was a Political Punishment Damon Garcia 2023-04-07 | The crucifixion wasn’t a standard government execution. It was a public spectacle of torture made to show everyone watching what happens to those who resist the Roman Empire. And Jesus was among hundreds of thousands who Rome crucified. The crucifixion was a 1st century lynching, which yall should also read more about in James Cone’s book, The Cross and the Lynching Tree!

The Temple Demonstration: When Jesus Flipped Tables Damon Garcia 2023-04-04 | Do you remember the story of Jesus flipping tables in the temple? It wasn't a spontaneous temper tantrum. And it wasn't a "Cleansing of the Temple". And it wasn't an attempt to get buying and selling out of the temple. And it wasn't a rejection of Judaism or sacrificial worship. It was an organized demonstration. And Jesus was far from the first to have one at the temple.The audiobook for The God Who Riots is out now, read by the author!audible.com/pd/The-God-Who-Riots-Audiobook/B0BFJZWSJ1Paperback: bookshop.org/books/the-god-who-riots-taking-back-the-radical-jesus/9781506480374Support the channel on my patreon page: patreon.com/damongarciaJoin my discord server: discord.gg/C89XbTC--Subscribe and keep up on the socials:https://linktr.ee/damongarcia

When most Christians didnt believe hell was eternal torture Damon Garcia 2023-01-18 | David Bentley Hart writes about these early Christians in the intro of his book, That All Shall Be Saved. They believed everyone would be saved in the end because the heart of God is to restore everyone, not torture people. Even though he disagreed with them the 4th century theologian Augustine called these Christians “the merciful-hearted”. #shorts
What is Liberation Theology? Damon Garcia 2023-01-06 | What is liberation theology? It changed everything for me, and was a huge inspiration for my book, The God Who Riots. #shorts
You gotta decolonize your faith Damon Garcia 2023-01-03 | We are all made in the image of God and reflect God in our own way. We find different parts of God through each other. John starts his gospel about Jesus by saying God became flesh, but God didn’t stop becoming flesh with Jesus. God further incarnates in the world because God loves the world, and we’re all part of it. The arrogance of believing that our 21st century Western interpretation of faith is a final revelation prohibits us from experiencing God even further. We all must learn from each other because we all have something to teach one another. #shorts
Who Do You Think God Dislikes? Damon Garcia 2022-12-16 | Who does God dislike? I don’t believe in a God who likes some people and dislikes other people, but when we look for the “wrath of God” in the Bible we find that it’s not aimed at the people many Christians told us it was aimed at, like LGBTQ+ people, drug users, people of other faiths, or leftists. It’s often aimed at the rich and powerful who exploit and marginalize the kind of people many Christians often discriminate against. That wrath is aimed at those who stand in the way of God’s love for absolutely everyone. #shorts
Christianity Must Change Damon Garcia 2022-12-13 | As the world changes Christianity changes too, as do all religions. The ways that Christianity is used to justify the particular oppressive institutions we struggle with today is also a way that Christianity has changed. So changing the way we express our faith as we change our institutions is inevitable. And for those who think the withering away of all religion is inevitable, what’s much more likely is a stage of religious experimentation, where we discover new ways of expressing our faith outside of old institutions. There’s nothing to be afraid of. Change happens. So let’s change for the better ❤️#shorts
