Tonight will begin the great Easter vigil – the end of the church year, and the start of our Easter celebrations.
Take a few minutes to enjoy this (quite creative!) video of a fitting scripture reading for a day we remember darkness. It comes from last year’s Easter vigil at our church.

Over at Blackbird Press is a re-print of my recent piece on the cultural impact of Scripture - “Does Anyone in the Church Ever Think About Literature?“
Go enjoy it all over again (or for the first time), and get to know a great little web magazine.
Following them (and exploring their extensive archives!) is well worth your time.
Here’s the link to my piece over at Blackbird Press.
