Transcript

If Jesus came back today, which political party do you think would be most uncomfortable with him? I think both political parties would be deeply uncomfortable. Um, Jesus is far more radical than either political party. Um, the word radical comes from the Latin word for root. So Jesus goes to the root of our problems and he calls us to a deeper love, a deeper justice, a deeper peace. And so I think he would challenge both political parties to keep working toward a more, a more radical vision for democracy, more rights, more opportunities for more of our neighbors.
