Carroñeros
Es importante que como iglesia identifiquemos si estas acciones ocurren en nuestras comunidades y nos unamos a los esfuerzos de hacer justicia en favor de los más vulnerables. A eso fuimos llamados y llamadas.
Stand up
May we find our rest, our sitting with community in the lamenting. We have waded in the waters, we have parted seas, our North Stars have journeyed to freedom. We have stood up to many Goliaths in this world.
In ‘A Real Pain,’ everybody suffers
“A Real Pain” isn’t an in-depth analysis of the Holocaust. Rather, it is a character study that points to a central fact that we all know – to be human is to suffer, and that suffering can be great or small.
Hand-me-down robes and the Kingdom of God
While today there are debates of the accessibility and efficacy of Christian vestments, to me they show the magnitude and imperative of the message we offer. They also are a great equalizer by which we see that God’s kingdom is not a meritocracy.
Remembering Dr. Anthony Campolo
Dr. Campolo forced you to think about what Jesus would do. He showed that simple ideas don’t always apply in every situation or solve every problem, but they change things. Simple choices can change your life.
