Revelation and the Violent “Prize Fighting” Jesus
"In an interview several years ago for Relevant Magazine, Mark Driscoll (well known pastor
of Mars Hill in Seattle) said,“In Revelation, Jesus is a prize-fighter with a tattoo down His leg, a sword in His hand and the commitment to make someone bleed. That is the guy I can worship. I cannot worship the hippie, diaper, halo Christ because I cannot worship a guy I can beat up.” (You can find the original interview here).
You are Peace (written in Frankfurt airport)
In the waves of motion, and chaos there is your peace,
In the aloneness, there is your breath, your wind upon me,
Peace in a Violent World
If it was outrageous then, what makes it different now?
