When humans are faced with injustice—with a wrong so wrong it can never be made right—or some sort of inhuman, inhumane, or dehumanizing event that makes us feel powerless, it’s only natural to look for some kind of help from outside the system—a hero who can put things to rights.

Jesus had come to believe he was bridging God’s future into the present; and he had to trust that when the future of God comes in contact with the blind, the sick & even the dead… God’s life will overcome death.

Human beings are wired for connection. We’re wired for mutuality and love. What endangers our SHALOM is when we allow our brokenness to cut us off from the body of Christ.
