We people of faith–Christians, Jews, Muslims, and others–just seem to keep turning away from the core of our belief systems: we have forgotten about acting with justice, grace, and mercy. Instead, we focus on getting what’s ours, swinging creed like a cudgel to show others how wrong they are<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n And some even swing the heft of political power<\/a> to force others to be like them… or pretend to be… or, even better, stay invisible. Did Jesus, Mohammad, Buddha, or other spiritual leaders act this way? Of course not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And all this tells us that we need to re:pent\u2014re:think how we are embodying our faith. We need to start over. We need to somehow re:faith<\/em> to match how we interact with this world with our beliefs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Welcome. As a community, we are no less imperfect than other people of faith. But we refuse to back away from the radical challenge at the core of so many world beliefs: treating others with dignity and respect\u2014loving them and showing that we see and value them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Re:faith<\/a>, we re:solve to do the hard thing and re:spectfully challenge the injustice around us. So re:ad on to find out more about our mission, how <\/em>you can be part of it, and why we think you should<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Find out more about us<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nIt isn’t right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Re:faith is a different kind of faith community.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
