I had a blast writing about #BarbieMovie for @Sojourners. Read my reflection on #barbie, biblical womanhood, and how @barbiethemovie mirrors the Genesis story:

I'm very sad to hear of the death of the great biblical scholar Walter Brueggemann, whose writings helped me immeasurably. I'm also exceedingly grateful to him for writing what became the most read article ever on @OutrchCatholic. May he rest in peace. https://t.co/KaqcW6VoGB

Just hearing of Walter Brueggemann’s passing. The Prophetic Imagination deeply shaped my faith as an undergrad, opening me to Scripture’s radical, poetic witness against empire. He’ll be missed, but his prophetic words live on.

Black smoke billowed from the Sistine Chapel chimney at 9 p.m. local time on May 7, signaling to the world that no new pope had been elected on the first day of voting during the conclave to elect a successor to Pope Francis. https://t.co/lwpQ7JlrhM

Beautiful reflection via @olivia_bardo in NCR - Peaceful hope descends on St. Peter's Square after Francis’ funeral. “This task is left to the youth, with their hope, their hairclips and untied shoelaces.”

I’m in Rome, covering Pope Francis’ funeral for @NCRonline:

In the span of about 12 hours, the St. Peter's Square went from bursting at the seams with nearly 250,000 people crammed in for a papal funeral to peacefully quiet.

#PopeFrancis, who elevated the status of women, and especially women religious, within the Catholic Church more than any pontiff in history, died early April 21. He was 88.

When Hulu cuts the live stream so you have to hit them with the Monica Barbaro stare

My face when Hulu ends their #Oscars livestream after Sean Baker encouraged audience members to go back to movie theaters instead of relying on streaming services.

Hulu ends their livestream seconds before announcing best actress in a leading role.

My latest for @NCRonline is all about the history of #KingCake, featuring an interview with baker and theologian Kendall Vanderslice:

Edward Norton’s performance captures the late folk artist’s steady approach to justice — one that serves us well today, writes Olivia Bardo. https://t.co/xSUjjtdrx7
