Welcome to the world of Preaching Peace
…A strange new world, a new creation, where the old cosmos is truly passing away. We welcome you to join us, to open your ears to hear, to turn away from being conformed to this violent, hierarchical, sacrificial cosmos and be transformed by the renewing of your mind to the life and thought of Jesus, the model of true humanity, who is leading us into the Peaceable Kingdom.
It is a world where Jesus’ understanding of his heavenly ABBA turns this ‘present evil age’ upside-down. It is a way of thinking and living that is scandalous and foolish to this cosmos of violent human culture. It is a world where the eagle flies with the dove, the lion lays down with the lamb, where the young dream dreams and the elders see visions, where there is no Jew or Gentile, no slave or free, no male or female, and a little child leads us all.
Even as Jesus had to explain his life mission to his own disciples on the road to Emmaus after his resurrection, we also need to listen to his instruction regarding the meaning of his life and death. We wish you welcome and say, “Well met,” on the journey. May the spirit of Jesus lead us as we travel and reason together.
“If Dietrich Bonhoeffer had written The Cost of Discipleship in the 21st Century it would have been called The Jesus Driven Life” – Theodore Durr, University of Baltimore
