“Gospel: Jesus is critiqued for eating with 'sinners and tax collectors,' as well as forgiving sins, speaking with women and healing the sick on the Sabbath. But for Jesus nothing should get in the way of proclaiming the Good News--which is the proclamation God's love for everyone.”
“Jesus might love you, but everyone else definitely thinks you’re an idiot.”
“Jesus loves you, but everyone else thinks you’re an asshole.”
“Gospel: Jesus says that others are complaining about him: 'Look, he is a glutton and a drunkard!' As my NT professor once told us, people were critiquing Jesus for 'living it up.' Jesus was a joyful man who delighted in the company of other men and women. His way is about joy!”
“Don't worry at all then about tomorrow. Tomorrow can take care of itself! One day's trouble is enough for one day.”
