The cross and the burning bush, great signs of our faith point us not only up toward God, but out to stand with God’s people. We are sent to share God’s loving solidarity with the world. That is what makes religion true.

The Wisdom of the Cross and Climate Change
The wisdom of the cross asks us to see the painful truths, to see the suffering of climate change, not to avert our gaze, and the wisdom of the cross asks us to also see the beauty that can happen even in the ugliest of situations. The wisdom of the cross is that dread does not have the last word. There is always a reason to hope. There is always a reason to call our fellow human beings to stop living out of fear, to stop living in denial, to work with hope for new life.
