Evening: Psalm 132; Luke 10:1-17
We have made following Jesus sound far too pious. Jesus did not intend to found new religious communities ... He wanted to change the world. Jesus’s followers still want that; they do not want simply to create or preserve inward-focused groups that only care about their own survival and their members’ well-being. Jesus intended much more than this, so he sent his followers out to support one another in the work of Healing and Peacemaking. The Good News is that when we do this work, we bring the world back closer to the Love that created it.
