A Political Jesus?

Robert M. Price

C*NAQ is pleased to feature "A Political Jesus?" by biblical scholar Robert M. Price. Just who was Jesus when it came to politics? A revolutionist? A pacifist? A community organizer? A feminist? In this essay, Price sifts the evidence for each of the theories and explores what a politically minded Jesus might — or might not — mean for us.

A Seeker's Guide to Surviving Winter

Frederick Moe

While our season may be autumn, on the horizon is the approaching winter. The Reverend Frederick Moe's "A Seeker's Guide to Surviving Winter" suggests ways of getting through the frigid months both spiritually and emotionally, as well as shares the author's plans for the winter of 2019.

A Pensive Pause

Empathy Outshines Eloquence

Joanne Winetzki

Most of us experience a loss for words at times, especially when someone we care about encounters grief or tragedy. Unfortunately, if we decide to say nothing the injured party is deprived of consolation and we may feel guilty and helpless. Apparently Carl W. Buehner, a high-level official in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, coined an adage often mistakenly attributed to Maya Angelou: They may forget what you said — but they will never forget how you made them feel. For her "Pensive Pause" this time around, Joanne Winetzki explores the positive spin empathy puts on our relationships. 

A Peek Between the Covers

Dan Hahn

The Reverend Daniel B. Hahn peeks at The Sacred Enneagram: Finding Your Unique Path to Spiritual Growth by Christopher L. Heuertz. As Hahn explains, "All of us, in one way or another, suffered a psychological wound in childhood. We react by developing a persona in order to protect ourselves from further wounding. This identity is not who we truly are; it is what we reactively constructed. Our type [as determined by the Enneagram] is our false self." According to Hahn, The Sacred Enneagram offers spiritual direction and a program for growth, based on our personality type.
