Christian In Name Only - Week 2

Apr 19, 2026    Rev. Matt Miofsky

Over the next few weeks, we are going to talk about this problem. Specifically, I want to talk about the biggest ways in which Jesus’ name is being distorted and his message is being misrepresented by those who claim to speak for him. As we do that, I want to instead teach and remind us of what Jesus actually said, what he actually stands for, what he actually commands us to do.


Today we will start with the first distortion because it is in the news and all around us right now: Christianity is being used to support violence when Jesus practiced and taught nonviolence.
