In the face of violence, fear, and hate, in the valley of dry bones God asks us: can these bones live? https://t.co/cIanClsN3m

To damage the earth is to damage your children.

[James Martin, SJ @JamesMartinSJ]

Gospel: "Love your enemies." "Pray for your persecutors." Hard sayings from Jesus that must be grappled with. Christians cannot ignore them.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The personal encounter with refugees dispels fears and distorted ideologies and becomes a factor for growth in humanity. @M_RSection

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Care for the environment is always a social concern as well. Let us hear both the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor.

[James Martin, SJ @JamesMartinSJ]

Why is climate change a religious issue? Because God's creation is holy. And climate change hurts the poor the most. https://t.co/Wuq9XwOkVj

@GrantimusMax But... what about coffee?

[James Martin, SJ @JamesMartinSJ]

Gospel. Sometimes you're persecuted for the truth. But just because people oppose you doesn't mean it's persecution. You could just be wrong

[Wendell Berry @WendellDaily]

Respect, I think, always implies imagination-- the ability to see one another, across our inevitable differences, as living souls.

[Danielle Shroyer @DGShroyer]

I'm just sad every Good Friday. I hate Jesus being alone. I know sitting with him fixes nothing but it feels like right work to do it anyway

[James Martin, SJ @JamesMartinSJ]

Gospel: Mary anoints Jesus's feet, a part of the body not often honored. Honor those among the Body of Christ who are seen as "less than."

Was reminded tonight–Moses' story shows that some of the greatest threats to empire can come from those who used to be complicit with it.

[Richard Rohr @RichardRohrOFM]

God’s power comes through powerlessness and humility. God is much more all-vulnerable than almighty. https://t.co/cl9iw5pjN2

The story of the transfiguration shows us that we can't fully comprehend the mystery of God, even though we tend to try and nail God down.

Just finished listening to every episode of @TheLiturgists over the course of a few months. It's like drinking wisdom from a firehose.

[Patrick Hoffman @HoffmaNomad4]

Our humanity is not defined by what/who we fear or hate. Grace breaks our chains so that healing can occur in the form of love & compassion.
