RHM Update: April 3, 2023

April’s Recommended Reading

In Memory of Her: Feminist Theological Reconstruction of Christian Origins

by Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza

More than ten years after it was first published, this book is as important and influential as when it first appeared. By way of celebration, Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza has written a new introduction, surveying responses and developments over recent years and the issues which arise from them, and commenting on her own intentions. This gives added value to what is already a classic.

Last Week’s Social Jesus Posts

Articles posted each week at https://www.patheos.com/blogs/socialjesus/

Politics of Palm Sunday, Part 1 of On the Foal of a Donkey

Words matter. Often today when Christians read this word they read it as a purely religious term. In the gospels, it was a much more political term.

Palm Sunday Ethics, Part 2 of On the Foal of a Donkey

As we read from Matthew this week for Palm Sunday, our work must then go deeper. We must compare the ethical options we have before us today.

Palm Sunday and a Contrast of Values, Part 3 of On the Foal of a Donkey

This Palm Sunday, we are reminded that life still triumphs over death, love triumphs over hatred, sharing triumphs over greed, and inclusion triumphs over fear of differences.
