I was in the car for 10 hours yesterday and had bursts of conversation with God. I took some notes to share with you. This talk (video above) is a little “out there” and might stretch some of my evangelical friends. Please stick with me. I think you’ll like where we end up.
In this talk, I discuss:
- The need to separate Jesus the first-century teacher from the religious icon passed down to us.
- The first century understanding of some of Jesus’ key teachings.
- What forgiveness and loving our enemies really look like.
- The value of surrender
- What it really means to be “woke”.
I hope you’ll find this talk helpful. If so, please let me know. I’d love to hear from you in the comments.
