The Prophet of Islam: Unity Through Divine Grace
By the time of his passing in 632 CE, he had successfully unified nearly the entire Arabian Peninsula. Long-standing tribal divisions were replaced with a shared religious and political identity under the banner of Islam.https://alborz8.wordpress.com/2026/06/30/the-prophet-of-islam-unity-through-divine-grace/

Is #StarTrek communist? That was the first question that popped into my head upon reading today’s reflection on (Acts 2:42, 44-46) in #TheDisciplesWay I’ve heard anecdotally that many of #Jesus teachings are being labeled as #liberal & #socialist I thought it was an exaggeration. To see such an anecdote in print is startling. I don’t know why, but I always felt like money not being a big thing in the future because we managed to find a way to ensure that everyone’s basic needs, including education & healthcare, were met was an obvious goal, especially for #Christians After all, our earliest community models, from Jesus & the Apostles/Disciples to current/historic religious orders to the pre-Deuteronomy tribes of Israel, all seem to exist this way. These communities are the ideal. Communities where people care for each other & share what they have good & bad. Isn’t that what we are called to? How did this basic concept get so twisted that we now see it as something to scorn & avoid?

Today #TheDisciplesWay is reflecting on 2 verses: Ephesians 4:25, 31-32 and Colossians 3:14-15. Combined, these verses offer a radical call to action: telling us to put away bittterness, anger, wrath, noise, & lying, while putting on charity & peace. That sounds almost impossible in this day & age. Yet, as Rev. Stephen Smith reminds us, the height of the Roman Empire, when these epistles were written, was not that much different. One might even argue those days were more dangerous (& potentially fatal for #Christians ) than our own. That doesn’t make the call easier to hear or to practice. The call for peace, charity, mercy, & forgiveness, however, is not unique to these verses. So it is an important call to heed. Perhaps especially so right now when so many are struggling with hurt & anger. We need to focus on treating ourselves & each other with radical kindness. As Nadia Bolz Weber pointed out the call to share forgiveness with our enemies & ourselves is the worst #GoodNews ever

According to #TheDisciplesWay the #FourthWeekofLent is about #Service This is a tricky one. #Christianity is primarily about serving others, at least that’s what the gospels, including today’s lesson (Matthew 20:26b-28) tells us. It’s not something many of us, who call ourselves #Christians do very well. Instead of looking into the souls of others & celebrating the image of the Divine in them, we seem to be turning away from anyone who does not show us God exactly as we perceive God to be & we are totally willing to force everyone, including God, to be what we think He should be. The problem is: that’s not God, nor is it what we are called to be as Christians. Jesus changed the world by emptying himself for the sake of others. We, in contrast, are trying to hold onto everything we have & grab ever more. We will succeed in changing the world, but not in a good way, because we want to be at the center of everything. We have forgotten, or never learned, how to be selfless like God is.

The #Pope #Gregory #calendar used by #Christians is manipulated to ensure that Christian Purim always takes place on Third Day (which is referred to by Christians as “Tuesday”). The holiday has multiple names in different Christian cultures, including "#PancakeTuesday," "#FatTuesday," "#ShroveTuesday," "#MardiGras," and "#Carnival" (yes, like a Purim carnival). Because of the varying cultural names, it’s best to refer to the holiday by its more common name of Christian Purim.
