A Brief Introduction

I want to conspire with others to change the world. I believe in the power and truth of non-violence, I see an energy in creative media that can be harnessed in the pursuit of justice, and I draw upon faith for inspiration and sustainability in my work.

What better way to spend a Friday afternoon than with a music video?

Hacking Christianity posted this video and wondered if the ending didn't completely undermine the message. I can't decide if the ending is purposefully vague--leaving us with the reality that we are free to to decide how to react to Jesus's sacrificial death--or if the filmmakers buy into (the myth of) redemptive violence. In either case, the cinematography is beautiful.

Thanks for the link! I guess that's what art is supposed to do: make us talk about it's maddening ambiguity!
