New York City’s religious diversity bucks stereotypes

“You can’t go more than a block without finding a house of worship in New York City, an actively used house of worship,” said Hussein Rashid, a scholar of religion with The New School and Union Theological Seminary. While accurate and up-to-date data on the state of religious identity in the five boroughs is hard to find, Rashid and other scholars say the city is as spiritually diverse as it’s ever been, even as religious affiliation is declining here in step with the rest of the country.

A Texan Talks Jesus

I like Thurman and read his blog regularly. One thing I would never associate with his blog is the art of the word. However, he tries to school us in some Jesus love and comes up with this wonderful line: “We should entice people to know God, not tell them to get used to it. We should be the signposts to greater faith, not the gatekeepers to greater exclusivity.” I think we should use if for our next PFBC.
