We ask, Why is the crowd so resistant to what Jesus is attempting to offer. In my earlier years I was quick to point my finger of judgement towards these people and others chalking it all off as rebellion. Now days I say, “Not so fast.” I’m finding my judgmental finger pointing inward while I now ask such questions as, “Why am I feeling so resistant to what the other is saying.” Why do I want to interrupt and quickly set them straight.” Why do I not want to deal with this person, snubbing them with some sort of religious comment and then self-righteously walk away?”
This story is not about what is wrong with the other, but quite contrary, What is going on inside of me?” Join in as the Moot Men grapple.
