God Squad: Our broken hearts. Civility (and humanity) in 2020.
As we do our best to (literally) survive a global pandemic and rising racial tensions in a country that seems incapable of finding any common cause at the moment, and find ourselves in the horrific homestretch of the 2020 election we leave behind all the recriminations about how we got here or whose fault it is for a single golden hour to just be human together.
As we do our best to (literally) survive a global pandemic and rising racial tensions in a country that seems incapable of finding any common cause at the moment, and find ourselves in the horrific homestretch of the 2020 election we’re going to leave behind all the recriminations about how we got here or whose fault it is for a single golden hour to just be human together. We’ll talk about values we share and imagine how we can live into a better place together as we will be putting the election behind us (hopefully) soon. We’ll also reserve some time for hope, and talk about what we look like when we’re healthy as a community, country and planet again. We’ll remember that when it’s all said and done, we’re neighbors. No politics, just people. Bring your lunch and your forgiveness.
