“Theologians should concentrate less on social arrangements and more on fostering the kind of social agents capable of envisioning and creating just, truthful, and peaceful societies, and on shaping a cultural climate in which such agents will thrive”

Holy Saturday: The Liminality of Easter​​
​
Holy Saturday is the Liminal space between the Crucifixion of Good Friday and the Resurrection of Easter. Many times it is in these in-between places of life, between death and re-birth, where we discover some of our greatest lessons and achieve some of our most impactful growth. Most of the time we want to rush through these spaces but we will discuss the importance of embracing these spaces and trusting in God for the outcome.
