Faith Over Factions

Christlike Courage in a Divided World
A quiet revolution is underway in a darkening world—and it’s time to embrace the way of Jesus Christ in the way he showed us. Not as the symbol used to justify greed, division, power games, and political agendas—but the Son of God who walked in humility, truth, and mercy and requires us to do the same.
No noise. No dogma. Just Jesus.

Welcome to Faith Over Factions

Faith Over Factions  is a space to breathe—a quiet place beyond the noise of factions and performance. Rooted in Scripture, honest about struggle, and clear about Christ, it’s a touchpoint for those seeking something real in a world that often confuse ego and dogma with faith.

Who Is This For?

Why This Matters

A quiet revolution is underway in a darkening world—and it’s time to embrace the way of Jesus Christ based on his own words and example. Not as the icon used to justify greed, division, power games, and political agendas—but the Christ who walked in humility, truth, and mercy. All around us, people are leaving what was built in His name, not because they’ve lost faith in Him, but because they’re tired of noise that doesn’t look at all like love. Faith Over Factions was born from that ache.

In a time when compassion is dismissed as weakness and truth is twisted into weapons, we choose to walk a different path: not louder, but deeper. Not rigid, but rooted. Not partisan, but profoundly Christlike. If you feel that call too, then maybe this space is here to encourage and uplift you.

What We Are About

Rooted, Not Rigid

We hold to Scripture—without adding burdens, legalism, or institutional control. Christ’s truth sets people free, where dogma can cage them in rigid, man-made structures that fail to serve.
What Does It Mean to Be Rooted?

Love Is Not Weakness

In a culture that equates strength with domination, we return to the strength of humility, kindness, and mercy. Jesus led with authentic love and compassionate power—so will we.
What Is Christian Empathy?

Jesus Over Agenda

Tired of religion being used for money, power and politics? Of the gentle Christ being used to justify cruel and unjust policies? So are we. But where does Jesus fit in the morass of contemporary politics?
Where Does Jesus Fit?

Portraits In Christian Resistance

Faith that refused to bow. Voices that still speak.

In every generation, there are those who choose Christ over compromise—even when it costs them everything.

Portraits in Christian Resistance is a living gallery of believers who stood against empire, injustice, and spiritual distortion—not with swords, but with courage, conviction, and costly obedience. From theologians who defied dictators, to students who gave their lives for truth, to civil rights leaders who prayed with blistered feet, these stories call us not to admire, but to follow.

Because resistance isn’t a moment. It’s a posture of faith. And now it’s our turn.

Step inside. Listen. Remember. Rise.
