The Ragamuffin Gospel Says We Can't Lose, Because We Have Nothing To Lose.

Suffering, Failure, Loneliness, Sorrow, Discouragement, And Death Will Be Part Of Your Journey, But The Kingdom Of God Will Conquer All These Horrors. No Evil Can Resist Grace Forever.

The North American Church Is At A Critical Juncture. The Gospel Of Grace Is Being Confused And Compromised By Silence, Seduction, And Outright Subversion. The Vitality Of The Faith Is Being Jeopardized. The Lying Slogans Of The Fixers Who Carry Religion Like A Sword Of Judgment Pile Up With Impunity. Let Ragamuffins Everywhere Gather As A Confessing Church To Cry Out In Protest. Revoke The Licenses Of Religious Leaders Who Falsify The Idea Of God. Sentence Them To Three Years In Solitude With The Bible As Their Only Companion.

In A Futile Attempt To Erase Our Past, We Deprive The Community Of Our Healing Gift. If We Conceal Our Wounds Out Of Fear And Shame, Our Inner Darkness Can Neither Be Illuminated Nor Become A Light For Others.

We Must Go Out Into A Desert Of Some Kind (your Backyard Will Do) And Come Into A Personal Experience Of The Awesome Love Of God.
