Wanting God

If there’s a loser in this story, it’s not any real people, but the power of money itself.

How bad can it get and still get better?

Did Jesus really say we have to give up all our possessions?

Jesus calls for a radical reordering of the social table.

Stopping up our ears does nothing to prevent change ... and will absolutely make us less ready to endure it.

Why is Jesus being so hateful and divisive? Why can’t he bring people together instead?

The spiritual impulse is the urge to bridge the gap between the actual world (which is a mess) … and the security of a true homeland that we fear may not exist.

In the Nicene Creed, composed in the 4th century, every word counts.

Make a habit of getting rid of some of your money. Unburden yourself and repair some of the damage done by previous generations.
