“You can’t serve God and fear”

“If I could get one message through to my evangelical friends, it would be this: The greatest threat to evangelicalism is evangelicals who tolerate hate and who promote hate camouflaged as piety.

No one can serve two masters. You can’t serve God and greed, nor can you serve God and fear, nor God and hate.”

— Brian McLaren

“You can’t serve God and fear”

Let me enjoy my tripped-outness here. I’ve just spent two years thinking about this subject. (Idea: you should buy the book, read it, e-mail me and we can trade totally tripped-out things about the world today!)
