God's name and power have been wielded by people to fuel and validate all varieties of behavior from selfless love to genocide. For many, the Christian story can be summed up as, "God loves the good guys and destroys all the bad guys, so be a good guy." Pastor Garett exposes the vulnerabilities of this kind of thinking and sheds light on Jesus's public display of peace and reconciliation by reflecting on the story of Jesus's triumphal entry from Mark 11.
