The Scandalous Jesus: Radical Love in a Religious World | Calvary Callender

Jesus never said following Him would be easy, but it will be good. It's not meant to be conventional, it's a call to a radically different way of living, loving, and pursuing justice. In the coming weeks, we're going to dive deeper into various episodes of the scandals of Jesus that illustrate how radical His call is. But for now, let me leave you with this question: Are we ready to embrace the scandal? Are we willing to let Jesus challenge our assumptions, disrupt our comfort, and transform us into agents of His scandalous love? Jesus, please forgive us for taming Your radical message. It seems we've made Jesus comfortable when He really came to challenge us. We need to have the courage to love as Jesus loved, to pursue Justice like He did, and to be agents of His Kingdom in this world. Our lives should cause people to ask questions, just as His did!
