From my #Advent Devotions: Living with this kind of love does not mean neglecting our own needs (Love your neighbor As Yourself). We care for others best when we see ourselves and them as mutual image-bearers, both equally and deeply loved by God.

Jesus drank wine, went to parties, and fellowshipped with shady characters - the kind of people that most good #church going folks wouldn’t want to be caught dead with!! (John 2:1-10, Mark 14:23-25, Mark 2:14-17).

“People flaunt their wealth, oppress the poor, act with arrogance, and wield power for individual gain. None of this is in God’s plan for creation. The Psalms are committed to reminding God of this plan.” -N.T. Wright
