Easter and Earth Day – To Rise Together

Since interpretations of the meaning of Easter vary widely—with some emphasizing punishment instead of reconciliation—it’s important to lift up the latter. Likewise, a naturalistic approach to Easter fits with honoring our interdependence with Mother Earth.

Toward Justice: A Reflection on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and Inauguration Day
How is recognizing MLK Day different from national holidays honoring other people and events? What values, and what other people, can inspire us to nudge the arc of the moral universe toward justice?
