This Sunday we continue in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. There will be a lot to ponder. I would imagine that even if you are hearing this passage for the ten thousandth time that Jesus' words will probably set you on your heels a bit - they do that to me every time. The sermon is meant to stimulate our imagination about what it looks like to live in this world as if we are already living in the next: the Kingdom of God in all of its glory when Christ is all and in all. I look forward to Sunday's worship service, trusting God's empowering presence to be at work as we submit our individual and collective imaginations to God's Spirit.
