Keep Calm: Jesus, the Anti-Nationalist
Description
In this episode, Ken discusses Mark chapter 11 and the "triumphal entry" of Christ and relates it to what is going on in America today. There were two very different Jesuses Christians were choosing to follow - then and now. The people were crying out for a political king, a gladiator, a hero - and what they got instead was a humble servant on a donkey. They wanted a king of power, not the King of Peace.
Ken asked the group to consider what it looks like to be a person of peace even when people in our own faith communities want to pull us the other way. And he asked, "What kind of person will we be when things don't go the way we want?" We are now being presented an opportunity, he said, to go find the "people of peace" in our communities - and to partner with them to make a difference in this world.
