Jesus was asked twice about the suffering of others. Did he attribute that to karma? To God's punishment? To people's sin? Actually, Jesus responded in a way that affirmed the theology in Job: there is non-order (if even disorder) present in God's creation. Let's unpack what that means. I also explore the matrix of Progressive political policies. Come laugh and think with me!
Morality matters to Jesus. In fact, sometimes he was downright forceful about morality! He didn't come just so we could go to heaven when we die. In his ministry he modeled all manner of ways he wanted to transform society; and I develop those herein. God cares about the common good. Indeed, he wants shalom for us, and salvation is shalom is salvation.
