10.29.19 Imposter, Finding the Real Jesus: Real Jesus Broke the Rules

Imposter Jesus is all about rules over people. He would never dream of breaking rules - what would people think?? Meanwhile, Real Jesus is breaking rules left and right when they get in the way of loving people (which, he says, is the real purpose of the law anyway).

Come hang this week and hear what Jesus had to say to his rule-obsessed haters, and why loving God and Neighbor sometimes means breaking all the rules.

Imposter: Finding the Real Jesus

You've heard about Jesus, right? The inexplicably blonde guy who grew up in the Middle East 2,000 years ago, but somehow has the sensibilities of a modern Midwestern White American? The polite, rule-following, calm, non-confrontational, pro-government, super pious guy who was very nice but always looking down his nose at people enjoying themselves just a little *too* much? Yeah, that guy is not Jesus. That’s an imposter. The real Jesus of Nazareth was a rule breaker. He was confrontational. He was a creative resister of a government with which he was in constant public conflict. He hung out with the wrong crowd and had a reputation for loving his wine.And, of course, he was brown (what with being Middle Eastern).

Join us this fall in search of the real Jesus of Nazareth.
We promise, he's way better than that blonde guy you heard about.
