Don't Drink the Kool-Aid
Often religion seems to be about conformity, about everyone thinking and acting the same. But in John’s vision of the End, we see God’s plan is to rescue and restore people from every culture and nation in human history. We’ll be together, but the myriad ways we follow God’s call will be preserved and celebrated. How can we begin embracing the diversity of God’s kingdom in the here and now?

Why is it so hard for the Church to live as Jesus in the world? Why such a sharp divide between the love and mercy of God and the way Christians interact with each other and the world? The Revelation offers us a powerful picture of who the Church is called to be: a reflection of Jesus in the world. By listening to them with pictures of Jesus from John's gospel, we see a clear picture of who we are called to be.

How do we know if we’re a whole person? Sin never begins full grown – it starts as seeds buried deep within us. Jesus told us a fully human life is one where we love God with our whole heart, soul, mind and strength, and to love our neighbors as ourselves. After we explore what Jesus meant by those terms, we’ll see how we can use each as a lens to investigate ourselves. We’ll discover the seeds of sin hiding within us so we can pluck them out before they can grow to full bloom!
