Hundreds of Jewish students at @Columbia just published one of the most incredible student letters I have ever read.
It's not only magnificently written, but it also clearly articulates their experiences on campus for the past six months.

Give Jewish students a voice.

Giver of Life, I feel uprooted, storm-tossed, longing for home. Fill me with deep and holy longing for my true home, and let my restless heart find rest in you.
I just bought some chap-stick here in Malaysia that lists "caviar" as a main ingredient. What can this possibly mean?
On shaming from the pulpit: I had the joy of teaching a D. Min. class in India this term and we discussed patterns of scolding that can happen from pulpits there. Their thoughts as to the reasons were wise and wide-ranging. "It's a high power-distance culture and pastors jump
into the role of parent to children." "They are scared and impatient that their people are not being faithful enough, changing fast enough, and that this reflects on their leadership." "They have not experienced grace themselves at deep levels." That last one came
Tables bring people together. Towers require distance to appreciate. In its quest for monolithic unity, Babel formed the essence of inhospitality. Tables facilitate intimate dialogue. Babel harmed our capacity to hear God or one another.
Can anyone recommend a Christian book on racism and ethnicity that treats it globally, rather than homing in tightly on the US? For example, ideally it would address caste issues in South Asia.
One thing I'm learning the hard way is that Zoom makes it possible to overbook oneself ways that make Hermione's time turner look tame.
Can I put into words how much I loathe Google Classroom? I cannot. It devolves to a visceral scream, a guttural groan, a sigh of deep despair.
