Privilege
Mention the word Privilege and watch everyone get uncomfortable. But Privilege is an opportunity to talk about opportunity. And to see that God is a God who leverages Privilege for the good of those who have less position. How can the Church talk about Privilege and leverage our privilege for the good of those on the margins?
From Series: "System Failure"
We often treat sin as personal moral failings but Sin has an institutional component too. What institutions in our culture form us to be sinful? And how can the Church act as a counter-institution that forms us to be holy?

We live in turbulent times – from endless war to a slowly recovering economy to a looming educational crisis and ineffective government. While we take care of our lives one day at a time, we can’t help but sense a storm gathering on the horizon. In this, we are much like the Jewish people who lived at the time of the prophets. Surrounded by forces outside their control, God called them to remain faithful in their daily life, to trust him to handle the big stuff. God spoke through prophets. Because their books are so short, we call them the Minor Prophets. But while their writings are short, their message has major implications for our lives today.
