Root And Branch Church

In order to address the question “W.T.F.W.J.D.”, we need to get clear on who this Jesus guy actually was. That’s not so easy though when some people make Jesus seem like a gun-toting beer-drinking bro, and others describe him as a radical anti-capitalist, anti-war hippie. More often than not, we may be tempted to co-opt Jesus to our cause. But, that’s not the way of Jesus' followers. Instead, we are asked to let him and his teachings — in all of their complexity, intensity, beauty, and even internal contradiction — challenge and change us. This week we are going to try to get a more complex picture of who Jesus was so that we can get a bit more serious about following his unusual and life-world-mind transforming path.
