On Good Friday, Christians bear witness to the brutality of death-dealing empire. As a Unitarian Universalist, I too, witness and lament.
Good Friday is the story of a man unjustly arrested and rushed to judgment. Diana Butler Bass tells it for our time, using only pictures from the last two weeks, and it hits so heavy

This interview was too good not to share in its entirety. So meet Grant, a 15-year-old student from Princeton, New Jersey, who spoke to our reporter at the #HandsOff rally there.
He has some thoughts.

If your pastor is trying to preach bravely right now, support her or him.
Up your pledge (to make up anyone threatening to withdraw support) if you have the means.
Tell them that you have their back.
Speak up in defense of bravery and truth.
Pray for the pastor-and your fellow parishioners.
