We have a basketball hoop on a pole in our driveway. Our toddler cannot yet shoot or dribble, but he watches the big kids and chases the ball for great lengths of time. He tries to climb the pole to get closer to the net, and he waves his arms for someone to hold him up for a slam dunk.
Fighting for justice in a broken world sometimes feels like trying to sink a goal that’s out of reach. We have different strategies for how to get there, and we may inch nearer to resolution as we flap our arms, but true justice God’s justice, the kind of flourishing for all that we want so badly resides at an impossible elevation.

When a mentor saw me struggling with worship in our fledging church plant, he handed me a copy of Marva Dawn’s
Reaching Out Without Dumbing Down: A Theology of Worship in this Urgent Time. I wondered what a Lutheran and a lover of historic worship practices would have to say to a congregation whose traditions came more from indie rock shows than any church.
It turns out that the work of Marva Dawn who died last month at age 72 was life-giving. Like many in my generation, I began ministry with a sense that there was something unsatisfying about the experiences I’d grown up with, and Dawn invited us to reconsider much that had been laid aside in the decades before.

Many of todayâs influential female Christian authors and artists, including Amy Grant, teamed up to create the Faithful Project, a collection of stories and music that celebrate Godâs faithfulness to women throughout Scripture.Â
The project first came together in the Winter of 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic, when a group of well-known authors and songwriters gathered as a community to write and sing.
Grant was among the group of women who are a part of the Faithful Project, which highlights why the stories of women in the Bible matter.Â
