U IL just sent an email to stay the coming flood of parental displeasure. "Your child's admission decision will be available this Friday... Decisions won't be changed based on phone calls. We also don't discuss any decisions via email." I'm guessing they don't stop a single angry caller.

A plan for attacking Christianity in the United States: 1. Claim Christians are being persecuted. Add racist dog whistling. 2. Use #1 as a warrant for absolute allegiance. 3. Shut down Christian agencies, stop Christian aid workers from doing their jobs. 4. Police the content of Christian sermons.

In this collage, I’ve invited us to view Rev. King through a monstrance, used in the R Cath tradition for venerating the host. In King’s witness, may we see the body of Christ, and may we be strengthened and fed for the work of love and justice. #MLK #theologymatters

Good news of great joy for my theology class! Tonight, the effervescent Daniel Cochran will be teaching us about Christology and art. This is good news for me too, not just because of the great teacher and material, but also because my voice is shot.

The baptism of Jesus is a lot like the incarnation itself; we spend a lot of energy trying to explain it, when perhaps we should spend more energy just wondering in awe at the fact that it IS.
