"He is the risen Lord, and His love is meant to change us. It should move us toward repentance, gratitude, covenant loyalty, and a deeper seriousness about following Him. Anything less is too small for what Easter actually proclaims." Amen.
I think people sometimes hear #GreaterLove and imagine a message that is warm, reassuring, and easy to absorb. But the love of Christ is more serious than that. His love did not ignore sin. It paid for it. His love did not excuse brokenness. It entered into it so that healing could actually be possible. His love did not leave people where they were. It opened the way for them to become something holy through Him. That is what makes Easter so powerful. The Son of God did not stand at a distance and tell us He cared. He descended beneath all things. He took suffering upon Himself in a way none of us can fully comprehend, and then He rose again so that death would never have the final word. That is greater love. Not sentimental love. Redeeming love. And that is why I struggle with versions of Christianity that reduce Jesus to a comforting symbol. Christ is not here to decorate our lives with inspiration. He is the risen Lord, and His love is meant to change us. It should move us toward repentance, gratitude, covenant loyalty, and a deeper seriousness about following Him. Anything less is too small for what Easter actually proclaims.

Satan’s tools—materialism, lust, and pride—bind hearts in chains of gold and sin. (See 1 Nephi 13:7–9) Christ's power can break those chains. He offers freedom, peace, and eternal joy. Choose Him today. Let Him break the chains so you can be free.

One day, all of God’s children will kneel and confess that Jesus is the Christ, the Redeemer, the Savior of the world. They will know that He died for them. On that day it will be clear that His is the only voice that ever really mattered.

Dr. King’s legacy reminds us that education is more than just academics. It’s inspiring students to make a positive impact. 🙌 Thank you to every educator who instills in their students the values of empathy, justice, and service that Dr. King championed. 🙏 #MLKDay #Education

Such a fun time thinking, reading, writing, and planning beside these inspiring educators! #authenticliteracy @SolutionTree
Replying to @AmyRass
@AmyRass launched our back-to-school PD with a book talk about @norawritesbooks’s beautiful anthology about Rural Voices. Our literacy educators engaged in quick writes, chatted with colleagues, and anchored their teaching in authentic literacy practices.

Such an inspiring thread--so many great ideas here to engage learners in authentic ways.
So many of us in the classroom are struggling to help kids find motivation and to engage in the learning these days. I'm hoping to crowdsource ideas, and I'm always a fan of little changes with impact. What has been something you've changed that has helped in this area?

I did a lot more personal than professional writing in 2022--lots of reflection. Writing helps heal. My hope for 2023 is to get posts up @3TeachersTalk again. 🤞
As the first week of 2023 comes to an end, let's reflect on 2022! 🎉🥳 What are you most proud of accomplishing in 2022? Let us know - we want to hear from YOU! #happynewyear #teachers #education
