As we move beyond this election, I’m struck by the human tendency to seek a "savior" in our political leaders. This desire often springs from deep psychological, social, and cultural needs—a willingness to hope for redemption in difficult times, a search for meaning amid life’s big questions, and a yearning for community and belonging through shared beliefs. We project personal aspirations onto idealized figures, reinforced by cultural narratives that shape our understanding of salvation. Yet, as a SALT community, we recognize that true transformation arises from serving, affirming, and loving ourselves and others. We believe that by committing to uplift and support one another, we can find strength together in a chaotic world.
