This year, Lent undid me in ways I still do not understand. As a theologian, I felt a bit of a traitor a few weeks ago since I started wondering about the resurrection. I went to the research I have accessible to review what I already knew. However, I was struggling with the meaning and historicity of it. Your publications for the last three weeks have helped me relax. I have come to see that the point of the resurrection is not only whether Jesus rose from the dead. The point, as I understand it today (literally, today), is to teach us a way of being otherwise. Thanks for your faithful writing.
