Episode notes
Truth Is Demanding, Not Simple
- Christian truth is not simple, painless, or guaranteed to look like worldly success.
- Jesus demands an ongoing intimate relationship, not a tidy set of easy propositions.
God's Life Often Looks Ordinary
- Jesus lived thirty mostly unremarkable years so his neighbors 'did not know' him when ministry began.
- God's presence among us often appears ordinary and unnoticed by those around him.
Childlikeness Means Powerlessness
- To 'become children' means to become inherently powerless and dependent, not self-sufficient.
- Childlikeness in the gospel reframes powerlessness as a spiritual condition to receive grace.
