Faith, hope, and love are always present — grounded in these three things — resistance is the divine guide on our collective journey toward liberation.

Now we see that enduring resistance is not centered on the finite victories of today, but on the infinite fullness that is known when ancestors and descendants also come to know restoration and redemption.

In the past, when we turned our faces from God’s call to resistance, we allowed the limitations of cynicism, civility, and practicality to be our guide — no more.

And yet — though we may not live resistance in the ways that God intends, in the loving and tender embrace of the Creator, and in the new life that comes through Christ, we are told again and again through whispers and wonder, “You are more than enough.”

At the end of the day, we are human.
On our best days, we are human.
Even as we follow the Holy One’s call to resistance, our days will end, and our generation will pass away.

Resistance rages at evil and rejoices in love.
Resistance never dies.
Resistance surrounds us yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Resistance does not say, “I told you so.” It doesn’t seek accolades, hoard power, or gatekeep rising voices
Resistance rejects the idea that oppression is a competition and that liberation is a zero-sum game
comment in response to
post
Resistance boldly plants seeds of hope in the soil today, knowing that lovers of liberation will rise tomorrow
Resistance embraces the human dignity of all God's created: family, friend, stranger, enemy, self, and other

If we offer our resources, risk our security, and barter our guilt for goodness, but we don’t resist the tyranny of saviorism, none of us will experience freedom.
comment in response to
post
If we know the ways of dignity, liberation, and belonging, and we believe these dreams can become reality, yet we don’t resist that which says that they can not, we are nothing.
comment in response to
post
If we move through an unjust world basking in our privileges, even saying the right things, but we do not resist, our silence to those who suffer is thunderous.

Yeah, the whole process feels like a return to blogging as we used to, but I am jiving with how solid the themes are. I like it on the phone as well.

Yep, I'll migrate over in early March. Hopefully you won't even notice. A few folks have moved and it's been pretty seamless. The help from ghost is 👍🏽
