“The prophetic imagination knows that the real world is the one that has its beginning and dynamic in the promising speech of God and that this is true even in a world where kings have tried to banish all speech but their own.” #walterbrueggemann#thepropheticimagination
“We are all in the hands of God who knows our stories and holds them in great love as we live out the narrative we call our lives, and that is a blessing” -Sister Anthanasius, “Little Hours” by Lil Copan
A Christianity rooted in patriarchy will always define women first and foremost by their relationship to men.
A Christianity rooted in the gospel of Jesus will see women first and foremost as human beings created in God’s image.
May we understand the difference.
