God calls us to be brave, prophetic storytellers, like the prophet Nathan, like Jesus, who disrupt violence with another story, with the truth of God.
What stories are you hearing these days that disrupt the cruelty of business as usual?
What stories are you telling these days that crack the veneer of violence and entitlement?
What stories open us to the wonder of hospitality, beloved community, and safety for all?
