Resonate Jesus

Below I will copy the message I sent to the outreach committee at my local church. I am posting it here so that it may be shared among members of the church as well as other members of the outreach committee.

I am writing this note to you in response to your request for ideas about outreach - specifically regarding the Lost, Least, and Last.

I wrote a blog post called Why you shouldn't use the Bible to judge homosexuality a while back. Since then I have become more involved and vocal about advocating for LGBT rights and affirmation. A great deal of that has to do with my interest in The Reformation Project (www.reformationproject.org) but it's also something that I enjoy researching. Because of a large amount of discussion that has been had lately I have decided to make a second article with a little bit more scriptural and historical depth than the last time.

What does the word “radical” mean to you? Does it mean talking about the norm and slowly changing something? Do you think that Jesus wanted to go through the hoops and sit on committees where nobody understood each other, and misquoted each other, and re-iterated each other’s ideas like they were new?
