Letting Go of Harmful Power

What is your relationship to power and authority? On this third Sunday of Lent, Weylin Lee invites us to disrupt oppressive systems, embody our anger through protest, and reimagine decentralized power in light of the story of Jesus' confrontation in the temple. [John 2:13-22]

 

Reflection

• How are we revealing and disrupting oppressive systems?
• How are we connecting with and expressing our passions as a form of protest?
• How are we reimagining ways of decentralizing power and removing gatekeeping?
