Animal Interruptions 

Deer and Canada Geese aren’t exactly favorites of the animal world, at least not in urban settings where ecological imbalances enable their proliferation.  We’ve lost quite a few young trees and too-many-to-count landscaping plants to deer.  Geese have never met a sidewalk they didn’t poop on.  But lately I’ve found…

So what is this non-thing that’s so singularly important – right now – it’s worth immeasurably more than everything else combined?
We live in a reality that needs queerness. We need what lies beyond the violence and death grip of the status quo. We need the rupture of racial, ethnic, geopolitical borders. We need the curiosity and vitality of imaginations that move us collectively through and beyond the ache of Now into the possibilities of the Not Yet. This is queer existence, queer faith. This is queerness that gives life and queerness that might save us all.
One of the remarkable things about this story is that it flips the script on who is seeking who between humanity and God. There is no indication whatsoever that Moses woke up that morning thinking: Today is the day I learn the name of God.

Jesus once said: “Blessed are the meek, those who live with humility, for they will inherit the land.”  This is not how history tends to play out.  But that doesn’t have to be the end of the story.  Restorative justice offers a path that is ultimately healing and good for those who have been harmed, and those who have done harm or benefitted from that harm.  Blessed are those who keep this story alive.
