There is a certain comfort in hopelessness. It allows us to guard our hearts from being wounded again. The gospel calls us to the dangerous work of believing that God might indeed be active in our world that in the midst of so much darkness there is still space for light.

Though my heart has been broken and my anger and grief have rolled in like ocean waves,I have learned much over the years about the love of our God and the great depths of our Lord’s suffering on our behalf.

“Unlike cynicism, hopefulness is hard-earned, makes demands upon us, and can often feel like the most indefensible and lonely place on Earth. Hopefulness is not a neutral position — it is adversarial. It is the warrior emotion that can lay waste to cynicism...

Trauma does not heal apart from being spoken and it needs to be heard in the context of a safe relationship where the dignity of the one crushed is restored.

Thanks for this, Beth. It’s been a rough ride since 2016, but the recent election brought a whole new level of weariness. I have had a hard time finding hope knowing what’s coming. But your thread provided much needed encouragement.

We are not called to protect our institutions, nor do we protect the God of truth by covering up sin or a crime. To do so is to “protect” a cancer – and cancer kills.

We honor God by caring for the wounded and by dragging sin to the light and calling it by its right name.

I never knew that the Bible doesn’t say Bathsheba was on the roof! @carmenjoyimes.bsky.social’s ‘Take Another Look at Bathsheba’ revealed the text as a Rorschach test, exposing what readers see, and reveals what God sees—a victim of sexual violence. This paper was masterclass of exegesis.

Christian Trump supporters opposed to the Gaetz nomination do realize the president elect is an adjudicated sexual assailant, right? Elect a man like that, and there are plenty more scandals and indignities to come.
