Hi! My name is Angie Velasquez Thornton. I'm a wife, mother, and disciple of Christ. After serving 10 years in Senegal, the Lord called my family to Montreal, where we have ministered since 2017. I have a passion for Christ, His Word, and making disciples who will make disciples. Like every believer, I am called to be his ambassador:
"Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God." (2 Cor. 5:20)
I've seen your posts on the gospel coalition and your version of Christianity just seems to me like political leftism with meme images of "praise da lord jeebus" sprinkled on top.
Like the tradwife article dismissing them as a movement for privileged white middle class women; ignoring the fact that a lot of women today are wage cucks for simple material comfort rather than "serving the Lord", that a lot of non-whites are still financially capable but might not live a trad lifestyle cuz they lack the cultural convictions that (some) whites in America still possess, or the fact that Leftists who cry about white women choosing to be traditional and simple (instead of sucking off black men for cash on Onlyfans) still worship Muslim women wearing hijabs and even the burka and believe that Islam is a religion void of "misogyny" and that nonsense.
"work full-time in the home as wives and mothers. I deliberately use the word work because that’s exactly what it is: unpaid but invaluable labour."
This is such a modern materialist money gratification conception of what work is. Not every toll you put in needs to have green dollars accompanying it. Whether you are cleaning your house, making someone's dishes or working your own land, not everything needs to have a check behind it. Like what do you want these women to get? Their husbands to pay them like they're the house maid? Their children to give them a percent of their future income as compensation for all that "investment"? The government to give them a salary every week?
I kinda appreciate that you (kinda) defended the traditional Christian marriage as a union between a man and a woman in one of your articles although I doubt your idea of how to win people over is gonna work. Secular people these days are not gonna be moved by your " winsome union with Christ" and instead will prefer to stay with their hedonist immediate gratification idea of relationships.
Plus your "we're all immigrants" defense of multiculturalism really makes me lose all hope for mainstream (Protestant) Christianity these days since it's essentially leftism with new testament quotes sprinkled on top. Only a matter of time before transgenderism and abortion become wholly embraced.
