“He [Jesus] actually stood up against the political and social systems of his time that had people in bondage - that’s what he spent his time doing. If he had just been asking people to pray a prayer [of salvation] they wouldn’t have killed him… Jesus is our example - he’s our ultimate example - as his followers. And we are called to follow him where he went, and beyond” - Summer Hendry
#3 in our Creation Care series - focusing on the 'people' aspect of creation, and how we can do better at caring for each other.
Looking deeper at communion - Summer reminds us as Paul did the Corinthian church "There are ways of treating people in our culture which are completely socially acceptable, but have no place in a community where Jesus is Lord..." - unity is central to communion, as we gather as a faith community to remember what Jesus did for us.
