Now is the Time

It’s a crazy time with a lot of emotions after the election. A lot of wide-ranging and diverse emotions from everyone. Ranging from despair and quitting, to invigorated and inspired, to celebrating victory. Here at Revolution, we try to respect the entire spectrum of emotions, ideas, and people. Revolution will always fight for equality, on every level we can. If you are in despair, it’s not over—this is what Revolution trained for. If you are celebrating, please do so, while seeing the humanity and others and understanding why they might not be feeling the same way and help them, with love, understand where you are coming from. No more biting and devouring. Let’s all give of ourselves to each other in hopes that it will bring about a truth that is higher than politics and parties. Are we so devoted to politicians that it blinds us to the humanity of each other? Do we want a revolution but not want to have to endure a revolution? We have to all work together and see each other’s humanity—regardless of political leanings, this is the ONLY way forward. Seeing each other as humans. All of us. Because grace is anarchy. It doesn’t hold to one system or leaning. Grace is for everyone, no footnotes or exceptions. MLK says we will remember the silence of our friends. This is what we’re saying, we can’t be self-focused, we need to be others-focused, because we’re not alone in this. If we want change, we have to learn to take the higher ground. How do we live in such a divided world and still find a way to help mend this division? We don’t know, really, we don’t, but we don’t see any path forward, any hope in mending division if we can’t all come together and see each other’s humanity. See each other as human. This is the only way. We can do this!


This talk was given on November 10, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.

  • God or ?

    Ever found yourself at the mercy of a car repair bill? I was too... until I learned something powerful. Tag someone who needs to hear this! Last week, my car's engine light turned on, and I was quoted $5,000 for repairs. 😳 But instead of panic, I reached out for help in my community. With the right resources and some guidance, I managed to fix it for just $300! It's incredible how necessity pushes us to learn new skills. I never thought I’d be doing mechanic work, but here I am! The best part? We’re all in this together. Community isn’t just local; it’s global. When we share knowledge, we empower each other. What skills have you learned from necessity? Let's keep this conversation going! revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_199www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url#CommunitySupport #DIYMechanics #LearningTogether #Gratitude #CarRepair

    Ever had a car problem that felt like the end of the world? I just faced a $6,000 repair bill. Here's what I learned:🚗 Tag someone who needs to hear this!Life threw me a curveball when my car went into limp mode right after my kids returned from a great trip to the Grand Canyon. With a check engine light flashing and a hefty repair estimate looming, panic set in. But here's the twist: I reached out for help and got connected with a mechanic who guided me to fix it for just $300 instead! This experience taught me the importance of community support and resourcefulness. Instead of spiraling into debt, I took control and learned something new—how to fix my car. Life isn't always easy, but it’s all about finding solutions and leaning on each other. Have you ever faced a financial scare? What did you do? Let’s share our experiences and support one another in this crazy ride called life!
