Alright … I’ve tried my best to recover from yesterday’s events (Forest’s annihilation), and I’ve dusted myself off for another round of fandom pain.

My all-time favorite description of religious experience:
"It seems to me that insofar as it is graspable, the divine draws [us] toward itself, for what is ungraspable is unhoped for and unsought. Yet one wonders at the ungraspable, and one desires more intensely the object of wonder, (1/3)

Lord Huron’s new single wasn’t quite what I was expecting, but feels reminiscent of Vide Noir and shows all the hallmarks of another great album!

@lancelogic.bsky.social shared the roles played by “Silence” and “Wounding” within prayer and Iconography. Since Icons are devised to guide the participant to God and knowledge of God, “wounding silence” makes way for God’s silence and provides a call to response.

@sujithomas.bsky.social shared reflections on Origen and Scripture. Particularly on the unity of Scripture and the presence of Christ within all Text as a means to argue against departing from the Mosaic Law in supersessionism.

"When Origen says that “Christ, the Word of God, was in Moses and the prophets”, he means both in the individuals and the writings of those individuals."

@amberbowen.bsky.social shares about a project she’s working on that’s a complement to Westphal’s “Suspicion and Faith” (W states we should read skeptics during Lent) Bowen’s thesis is that Kierk is an ideal thinker to read during Epiphany.
