Dirt and Stardust

“Dirt and Stardust will offer a grounded relief for some and a sunny illumination for others. In his exploration of the Sermon on the Mount, Jeremy restores a tired conversation from its latest version (‘Everything is terrible, including you!’) to its earliest incantation (‘You’re loved’). . . . Stars and dust are not objects to be managed or maligned—it’s what we’re made of. Jeremy does a fine job of reminding us of humanity’s sacred roots while inviting us to live into our indestructible destiny.”
