Mark Gladmon is a Benedictine monk based in Australia. Known by his Insta nomenclature “Monkindocs”, Brother Mark and I share similar beliefs and both wrestle with what to call ourselves as it is related to our faith.

The topic of our discussion was Re-branding Jesus. This was partially inspired by the multi-million dollar ad campaign funded by evangelical billionaires to "re-introduce Jesus" - starting with a Super Bowl ad.

Mark and I talked through the following questions:

* What's the biggest misconception that both traditional Christians and non-Christians have about Jesus?

* What would Jesus' message be in contemporary language and context?

* Who is Jesus' biggest competitor?
