Jesus' Dress Code
As followers of Jesus, we struggle to balance the radical hospitality of Jesus' new life with the call to be holy that invitation implies. Everyone is welcome, and everyone must become like Jesus. In Matthew 22, Jesus compares God's kingdom to a great wedding that has an open guest list - everyone is invited! But if you come to the party God's throwing, you must be willing to be transformed, to "wear the right outfit". Jesus' kingdom is both radically welcoming and radically challenging. And that's good, because we need both!

During this series, we’ve been exploring the three temptations using Dostoyevsky’s “The Grand Inquisitor”.
This Sunday, we’re going to switch things up. I’m going to share some of my own fiction that I’ve used to reflect on the nature of Jesus third test.
What did it mean that Satan told Jesus to worship him? How could Satan offer up the kingdoms of the world?
Questions to consider… until we gather on Sunday. See you then!
