I inner wept all day yesterday. And again this morning reading this. After the tragedy that unfolded in Vancouver BC on the weekend, these words you wrote, Nadia ….”The story that Love will always conquer hate and that death has no sting and forgiveness is more powerful than violence and that despite it all it is always, always worth it to love God and love people.” Those words give my soul balm this morning.

Just WOW. I really needed this. As you say, 80 generations separate me from this story, and all my life I have listened to pastors tell it. But they tell it like a typical pastor tells it, with flowery language, like every other pastor tells it. Somehow you, a unique, modern pastor with your direct, blunt, everyday, 21st Century voice, make it real for me. I struggle so to believe it all, and that is why I needed this.
