My wife just expressed her disappointment that I’m not wearing “Easter colors” tomorrow. She says I have no Easter spirit. I’ll hold back expressing my disappointment in her participation in a socially constructed chromatic ritual having no basis in the biblical tradition.
*Unfortunately, I think this means Mark Driscoll would be proud of me. Maybe I’ll have to change my mind.
I got up in the pulpit Easter Sunday and wished every, “Happy Ishtar!” I got a few chuckles…sigh.
