I wonder if Rachel Held Evans knows now how many of us read and were inspired/encouraged/challenged by her witness week in and week out, year by year. She was truly as close to an ecumenical archbishop as one can be without being ordained. Or was she? A kind of theological Joan of Arc.
Rachel now joins that great cloud of witnesses. The church at rest, but whose voice is never too far away from the church that is still on the battlefield. May we continue to fight the good fight, drawing inspiration from such a saint as this.
Well done, good and feisty servant. Well done.
