Jesus Christ lived in the midst of his enemies. At the end, all of his disciples deserted him. On the cross he was utterly alone, surrounded by evildoers and mockers. For this cause he had come, to bring peace to the enemies of God. So the Christian, too, belongs not in the seclusion of a cloistered life, but in the thick of foes.

I’ve been wondering how to approach my neighbour to ask him to chop his tree down, last night the wind did the job for me…on the car!
[the words of scripture are words]…to get inside us, to deal with our souls, to form a life that is congruent with the world that God has created, the salvation that He has enacted, and the community that He has gathered.
