I'm buying a lot less from Amazon these days but have to admit that these are pretty great prices for the hardcover, ebook, and audiobook of @weshill.bsky.social's book on Easter. www.amazon.com/Easter-Seaso...

Wesley Hill’s small volume about Easter is a beautiful and useful invitation to be shocked anew by the central event of our faith.

I’ve supported World Relief for years and encourage you to do the same. I know some of their staff and I believe they’re doing good work.

I will again tap the sign that I hate how much of the pro-immigrant anti-ice rhetoric still seems to boil down to "its actually good that we have a system where undocumented people can be exploited and treated like wage slaves for cheaper broccoli"

“The US government” does not in fact have the legal right to do this. The wording in the constitution is extremely clear on this question. It is our obligation to say that, each and every day.

I’m currently teaching a 3wk series on the Life of Jesus at Crossroads Bible Church in Grand Rapids (all are welcome!), and I’ve been rereading this book in prep. It is a true gem.

This is a lovely and loving obituary that describes the Richard Hays that I knew as my teacher and, later, my dean and senior colleague. Thank you, @weshill.bsky.social

I hope to say more about Richard Hays soon (and about his new book on sexuality). But for now I just want to note my deep and abiding gratitude. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

Hard to choose a favorite read of the year but @elizabetholdfield.bsky.social’s *Fully Alive* is a strong contender, as is Sarah Hinlicky Wilson’s *Seven Ways of Looking at the Transfiguration*.

Good stuff from Philip Yancey. In my experience, evangelicals are woefully underexposed to this

Totally agree. I try to read at least one entry in the intro genre each year. The only ones that have gripped me nearly as much have been Farrer’s *Saving Belief* and Francis Spufford’s *Unapologetic*.
