Musings on theology, justice, and pop culture.
New posts every Wednesday (except for weeks of major US holidays).
Returning to words
Last month I met someone who, at the end of our meeting, asked, “How can I pray for you today?” I sensed in his request a concern for me and genuine desire to support me however he could. I also sensed that God wanted the same thing.
Craving a messy faith
If you are a person who prefers their leaders in a clearly delineated worldview, and you find me confusing, well, try being me.
We never outgrow the need to be loved
They say with age comes wisdom. I will let others judge if that is true for me. What I feel, though, is more curiosity.
Telling the truth
In my experience, those who claim to tell someone the truth in love are leaving their heart out of the conversation.
We are treaty people
Land acknowledgments are not just for organisations and governments to announce on special days. They are a tool that each of us can and should use to remember our place in treaties and to grow and reconcile relationships with Indigenous people.
We are not influencers (at least not yet)
There are a lot of great deconstruction programs out there. We are something different.
