It’s officially #PublicationDay. Welcoming “The Wounds are the Witness” to the world. Available wherever books are sold; audiobook narrated by me. I write about Black faith and the relationship between memory, healing, and justice. #BHM

Had a wonderful time at the first Scopes Festival event - American Religious Landscape During the Scopes Trial! Drs. @JamesPByrd & Hudnut-Beumler gave great recaps of prevailing religious thoughts of the early 1900s. @DialogueVU. #Evolution#Fundamentalism
I wrote this column months ago. I didn't have a clue how much I would need to hear these words that were published this week. Unpredictable life...but a sure, steady, and certain God. @VUDivinity

Just learned of the death of theologian Jürgen Moltmann. He was a towering theological figure whose "Theology of Hope" and "The Crucified God" remain standards in the field. 98 years of age at his death. A life well-lived. #JurgenMoltmann
