"By seeking to avoid racism instead of challenging racism, post-racialism fosters complacency with the status quo and continues the very structures it claims to leave behind."

I am really digging this book by Montague Williams.

Our ecumenical Good Friday Worship Gathering was beautiful last night. I'm so blessed to have such a strong network of pastors and churches in my community! #ELCA #UCC #UMC #Episcopal

David Bentley Hart’s *The Story of Christianity* is a sharp, witty, and thought-provoking take on Church history. With bold insights, he challenges familiar narratives and makes complexity accessible. This was a good read and I plan to use in teaching and writing on church history.

Today, Dietrich Bonhoeffer would have been 119 years old.

"The Church is only truly the Church when it exists for others." #Bonhoeffer
