The Harbor Blog
Musings on theology, justice, and pop culture.
New posts every Wednesday (except for weeks of major US holidays).
Critical fabulation
If the Bible is our text for knowing the history of our spirituality, we must acknowledge it is incomplete. Missing are the stories of slaves, women, children, those who were defeated in battle, and those whose existence was not fully understood, such as transgender people.

Making any kind of art, whether it be a paper craft or a cell phone photo, colouring, or a sculpture in a museum, helps us remember and embody our original vocation as stewards and co-creators.
Can colouring bring peace on earth?
There is something sacred about finding joy in something as an adult you found joy in as a child.
