Rising Complexities: Wavering Devotion

Christopher Mack acknowledges the Jesus Movement has given us many reasons to leave, while encouraging curiosity around reasons we might choose to stay, and ultimately invites us to include and transcend the different stages of faith we have experienced as we participate in Jesus’ calling to love neighbor and love God by forming Beloved Community. Reflection Questions: Where does your heart explode with hope, joy, and love at the Jesus movement? Where does your heart sink with frustration, disappointment, and disgust at the Jesus movement? What if your real desire is not simply a way to stay Christian or put Christianity behind you but a way to be more fully and maturely human?
