For Easter, @NickKristof asked @SereneJones from @UnionSeminary easy questions, like: "What happens when we die?" and "How do we reconcile an omnipotent, omniscient god with evil and suffering?" nyti.ms/2XyCgW1

Resurrection doesn’t mean you don’t wake up without scars.

You should read The Cross and the Lynching Tree! Dr. Cone speaks with for more profundity and prophetic fire on the topic than I ever could.

8. We enjoy incredible abundance: We have more than enough to share with siblings who wait at our border; children we've locked in detention; families we've needlessly shattered.
But we must dare to believe in resurrection, and do the hard work of breathing new life into being.

An Easter thread about resurrection at our border:
“The faith so many migrants proclaim in God invites us to join and share in the promise of new life and refuge. It beckons us to believe that this ‘herrida abierta’ might be born anew into a place of healing and wholeness.” twitter.com/unionseminary/…

Easter is about listening to women preach resurrection.
Easter is about switching the sword for the cross.
Easter is about rejecting the ways of empire and rising up for the oppressed.
Easter is about paradise for the humble and power for the lowly.
Easter is hope for all.

On this tragic Easter morning, let us pray for the dead & injured while yet believing that one day humanity will accept resurrection from the horrors of death to the hope of life. cnn.com/2019/04/21/asi…

Happy Easter!
You can believe in resurrection without believing in a bodily resurrection: Faith is more than adherence to rigid dogma.
The truth about our lives—about our world—is God’s love and grace will always have the final word. Rejoice!

“Laquan McDonald, Jakelin Maquín and Ashanti Carmon were victimized by crucifying systems, structures and cultures of neglect, poverty, and transphobia. The resurrection of Jesus is God’s definitive response to such crucifying realities.” - @DeanKBD

As someone who has wrestled a lot with my faith lately, the NYT article by @SereneJones on the resurrection of Christ resonated with me. And it hurts to see clergy tell on themselves about how they really feel about folks who are questioning.

My conversation for Easter with Rev. @SereneJones, who respectfully argues that the virgin birth is silly, hell is nonsense, and that what matters is love. She believes that we're in the midst of a new Reformation: nyti.ms/2UOW6iT I think you'll find it interesting.

Amen.
“At the heart of faith is mystery. God is beyond our knowing, not a being or an essence or an object. But I don’t worship an all-powerful, all-controlling omnipotent, omniscient being. That is a fabrication.” - @SereneJones in tomorrow’s @nytimes.

“The pervasive idea of an abusive God-father who sends his own kid to the cross so God could forgive people is nuts...the cross is an enactment of our human hatred. But what happens on Easter is the triumph of love in the midst of suffering.”- @SereneJones

I had a wonderful time talking about Easter with @NickKristof, how God “is vulnerable and is connected to the world in profound ways that don’t involve manipulating the world but constantly inviting us into love, justice, mercy.”

If anything, the crucifixion cues us to human and imperial wrath. If anything, it is empire, not God, that demands blood. It is in our best interest to cease projecting onto the divine our whims and abuses.

You don't have to go to church today to see Jesus crucified. Look at children ripped from their parents. Look at racist justice systems. Look at trans people killed. Look at the mentally ill stigmatized. Look at the environment degraded. Are you here as they crucify our Lord?
