In "A Palestinian Theology of Liberation," Naim Ateek asks: "How can we best love those who are marginalized or oppressed? What does it mean to confront and challenge injustice and oppression?" #DailyMeditations buff.ly/P3LsmyP

"It is up to us to continue the work of liberation begun by the Son: the liberation from sin and the consequences of sin, the liberation from egoism and the consequences of egoism." I'm so moved by these words from Dom Hélder Câmara. #DailyMeditations buff.ly/o45S7FR

"When you 'fight against' someone or some policy, that person or policy may actually be reinforced. Rather, in this spiritual journey… we are called to fight for a vision that can be shared." —Simone Campbell Read from a ONEING passage. #DailyMeditations buff.ly/pAAn0dC

I hope you'll join us this week as we explore the story of Jonah. Even though I love Jonah, he is what I call an unfinished prophet. He is so detached from his own real message that he’s disappointed when it succeeds! Read on. #DailyMeditations tinyurl.com/mjfp2uc8

We share wisdom from my dear colleague, Dr. Barbara Holmes, in today's #DailyMeditations. She writes: "There is no worse situation than a merciful God when you want to see your enemies get what’s coming to them." Read on. tinyurl.com/2uayka6k

I appreciate these words from Debie Thomas, quoted in today's #DailyMeditations: "All too often, we are also left to wrestle with the scandalous goodness of God, a goodness that calls us to become instruments of grace even to those who offend us most..." buff.ly/G9iZOoP

"In a world in which politicians fan the flames of fear and anger, Jonah presents a provocative possibility: What if God loves our enemies as much as God loves our friends?" —Bruce Epperly #DailyMeditations buff.ly/rbKh9yG

It's authors like Kaitlin B Curtice who I believe will lead future generations towards embracing healing contemplative spirituality. So, I'm sure you can appreciate how honored I was when Kaitlin featured an excerpt from #TheTearsOfThings on recent Substack!

We must not be discouraged when people say, "You are making the message political and not spiritual!" The prophets speak about misuse of power, but always from an inspired basis, and at a higher level of morality. #DailyMeditations tinyurl.com/5n6fa4uw

When the ego didn’t die, Christianity made salvation into a victory trip, thinking we knew who “won.” To undergo the sign of Jonah feels like losing, and by worldly standards, it looks like it, too. Read along as we learn from Jonah. #DailyMeditations buff.ly/17SP1AP

In her book "Prophets: Words of Fire" Megan McKenna suggests, "If the tale [of Jonah] were told today, it might well be directed at great nations." Explore this thought experiment and catch up on this week’s #DailyMeditations at buff.ly/uKPalbR

In many ways, the struggle with darkness has been the church’s constant dilemma. It wants to exist in perfect light, where God alone lives (see James 1:17). It does not like the shadowland of our human reality. #DailyMeditations buff.ly/t8htRfU

In many ways, the loss of meaning here is even greater, and the loss of motivation, purpose, and direction might be even greater too. It really feels like the total absence of light, and thus the mystics called it “the dark night.” #DailyMeditations buff.ly/I5E77O3
