Lent: Who Can Be Against Us?

Rapidly escalating anti-queer, anti-trans, and anti-drag rhetoric is turning into proposed or passed legislation all over the country. Adding in the layers of oppression for BIPOC, women, people with disabilities and more, it can feel like everyone is against us or someone we love.

 

But the scriptures promise that God's love is for us, and that no opposition, persecution, or structural oppression can overcome the power of God's love.

 

Love gives us the power of solidarity, which is the labor of hope for a new future in which all are free. Who can be against us?
