Well, I am excited for this Sunday! We are bringing the portion of our season around tensions with God to a close by exploring some of Jesus’ most frightening words. A casual reading of the gospels reveals that Jesus doesn’t always fit the common portrayal of him as a kumbaya hippie. He spoke at length about fire, hell, wickedness, and judgment. If we are going to come to trust God, we must reckon with what scares us most about this God—threats of fire and hell.
If you grew up in certain Christian traditions, this was THE reason we became a Christian in the first place. We didn’t want to spend eternity in a lake of fire! It is high time we replace cartoonish and medieval influenced portraits of hell with a deconstructed, and dare I say it, hope infused vision of hell!
I can’t wait for this one. There are plenty of pit stops to make along the way
