Good Friday is supposed to be about the cross, but what happens when we take that story to the place where modern violence is manufactured?
Shane Claiborne joins us with a challenge that’s as simple as it is unsettling: if you knew a bomb was being built for a school full of kids, wouldn’t you try to stand in its way?
Listen to find out:
- How Holy Week is connected to the real-time violence in Gaza and Iran and ask what it means to follow Jesus when our nation profits from war?
- Why we’re gathering outside Lockheed Martin on Good Friday and how ordinary people can practice nonviolent witness with courage, grief, and hope.
- Why “the right people get bombed” is the opposite of The Prince of Peace
- Diana’s shift from Iraq War participation to conscientious objection & finding the freedom to change your mind
- Good Friday is solidarity with victims of state violence and practice of refusing to meet violence with violence
- Why weapons manufacturers make modern wars possible and why profit belongs in the spotlight
- Memorial practices for children killed in Gaza and Iran, including names, candles, roses, and a shared rope
- Direct action and civil disobedience as “divine obedience,” with many on-ramps for participation
