Turning The World Right Side Up

The Message of Jesus disrupts the world turned upside down by spiritual blindness, and if you think this disruption is welcomed, you are wrong!

Christ is risen!

The old apocryphal Chinese curse seems innocuous initially, but when you really think about it, it is truly a curse: “May you live in interesting times.”

To wish for someone to live in times of turmoil and upheaval really is an ironic wish. But most of human history is turmoil and disruption. The United States has been around since 1776 and has had fewer years of peace than conflict. Today, there are some who seem to promote the horrid idea of “perpetual war” all across the globe. It seems we moderns can tend towards violence just as much as the “barbarians” we claim to be beyond.
