Jesus as Disrupter - Part 2

In part 1 of this message we examined why Jesus disrupted the illegal commerce occurring in the Temple and how He disrupted the contented lives of the hypocritical religious leaders of His day in that they had conceived, organized and regulated a system of power and control. In part 2 we will see how His message of needed change from the status quo didn’t stop with those individuals. It was also directed toward individual citizens--including His very own disciples.

John has served as an employee of the United Church of God in a variety of media-related responsibilities and as a senior writer for Beyond Today magazine.
